~Receiving her first art award!
also... the painting SOLD at auction!

~ FABULOUS ~
This is a big recognition: There were over 100 artists from Missouri, the United States and Canada registed and submitting art for this 10 day event. All submitted pieces had to be painted "in plein air" during this event.

"Spring Phlox" was awarded honorable mention. Official judges were from 2 different galleries, a representative from Kodner Galleries in Saint Louis and a representative from Rice Gallery in Kansas City.

There were First, Second, and Third Place and Honorable Mention in 5 categories : Oil, Acrylics, Watercolor, Pastel, and Mixed Media. A few artists won ribbons in multiple categories or more than one place in a category.

I am completely honored and humbled. It is very stinkin' cool!

A few entries down is a clear unframed picture of this painting.
