Well, I hit Rochester Fair on Sunday with Pete and Isaac. I took a first with the floral watercolor, a second with the marine scene, and a third with my landscape. The animal category had quite a few incredible works, so the horse didn’t win a ribbon, but since this was my first foray into the professional division (and my first competition in over 10 years) I was very happy with how I did. At the last minute I also entered a tole tray I had painted, and that piece also won a first. Now I’m all inspired to get some new work done.
