STANDING TALL TOOK 2ND PLACE

After a long day at school getting classroom ready for end of the school year, my family and I set out to go to the National Orange Show Juried Art exhibition artists reception.  I was looking forward to unwinding with some wine and food.  As I walked to the artist check-in table for my name tag, I was surprised to see orange ribbon to my name tag with "second place" award on it. My first theme piece done with enamels won the award!



I was ecstatic to say the least!    Wow feeling as other artists offered congratulations and informed me that it also won purchase award...twice the SWEETNESS.   My friend Pat came to support me and so lucky to have such a great friend!!!
It has definately been an awesome evening...woot..woot!!!
