and another one down...

Today I embark on completing goal number 2 of 3 that I set for my summer. By 5 pm, barring a Divine veto, I will have entered another recent piece in a juried show, The Lawndale's Big Show. This collage, too, is 16 by 20. I call it Flower Piece because it is intended as a tribute of sorts to the Dutch floral painters like Van Huysum. Those pieces fascinate me, all the little bugs and water droplets.

By way of update for those of you who did not receive my giddy phone call last Friday evening, Lite Cardio was accepted for the Light Show. It was a rather traumatic event in that at close of business on Friday I was under the impression my piece had not been accepted because nobody had phoned to tell me otherwise, which is the standard operating procedure for these things I've learned of late, and Smootchgirl had found out the day before that one of her two entries had got in (Yay!!). But, when my friend stopped by to pick up Lite Cardio and Smootchgirl's other piece, mine was on the list of those accepted. Woo hoo for me! I'm terribly excited. My first ever artist's reception will be next Saturday evening at M2.
