Today went very well. The three graduate students from Chapel Hill came today and played their part as jurors for the student exhibition. They were some of the coolest people I've met in a while: Friendly, Talented, Beautiful, Enthusiastic, Artistic, and Lively. I'm very glad that they responded to my email months ago (I didn't know the talent I had happened upon then). They took their roles as jurors very seriously and meticulously and thoughtfully selected the art to appear in the show. At the end they had eliminated more than half of the submissions and selected 1st, 2nd, 3rd place as well as three honorable mentions (I know who won what!). First place is $50.00! Now you wish you would have entered...
In other news, I'm a really bad painter, but I think this is coming along in its own special way:
this is larger than life, by the way
Don't you think it looks like my mom? Anyone?
And, yes, there is a reason she is yellow. We're working with different color schemes right now. I'll post the finished product in a few weeks.
Love,

P.S. Two days!
