I just found out last night at the "City of Trees" opening at Chemer's gallery that I received 1st place in the professional division for last week's painting "Old Tustin". I'm very excited. I'm glad that this show divided the categories into amateur and professional rather than by medium. I usually can't enter my silk paintings into contests because there isn't a category into which they fall. Even though silk dyes are a water-based medium, they don't fall into the watercolor or acrylic categories. The other usual mediums are oil, pastel and mixed media which also don't apply. So..... this was a rare opportunity for me.
