Artslant Showcase Winner: Painting Category, May 2009

Got lucky and did it again. I found out last week via email that my entry into the competition / Showcase over at Artslant was selected as a winner, or chosen among the preliminary round of winners anyway. I entered the work (Find Another Gate from the Miscellaneous Paintings Series) in the painting category (this time!), figuring I’d slot it the “proper” way, rather than last time in the March Showcase Finals when I entered the work into the Mixed Media Category. Again, it’s a real honor to put something into competition and find out later you’ve been selected.

Artslant Showcase Winner: Mixed Media Category, March 2009

Failed to mention this when it happened, but I was lucky enough to be chosen among about 6 people in my category over at the Artslant website, which has started running monthly competitions. I entered the work (Resolving Barclay’s Dilemma from the Reclaimed Houses Series) in the mixed media category, as it included so much drawing in colored pencil. Of course it’s a painting, but I figured what the heck. It made sense at the time, and was later named a Showcase finalist. I didn’t end up as the winner ultimately, but it was a really nice honor.
