An Award!

Remember this painting? It is called "Tree Study". I photographed the huge tree when I visited Blowing Rock in North Carolina. I used a portion of the tree for my painting. It was shown on my January post after I sent a slide of it off to the Texas Watercolor Society. I was very happy when the juror, Jeanne Dobie, accepted it for the TWS 59th Annual Exhibit. This afternoon I heard from the Texas Watercolor Society. I was informed that I had won the Bronze Award for transparent watercolor. The award includes a lovely bronze medallion and a check for $1000. I have not yet come down from Cloud Nine. I like it up here and may stay for awhile.
