As I told you last night that I was off to the Opening night/Prize giving for the local Arts Festival .. and I was very excited to find out that I recieved a First Prize for the B&W Gooseberry image.. There were two catergries B&W and Open and can enter up to 5 images but no more than 3 in one catergary .. I have since found out that this image has also been sold, so with the prize money and sale I am well ahead of my costs ... The images are presented matted up to a 20"x18' maximum... so they all look very smart presented together.. This Festival is very popular for all sorts of artists including painters, wood turners, carvers, weaving, sculpture, and glass work.. It is open for a week so hopefully I may even get another sale..
Oh well done Julia. Will you still speak to us all when you are world famous. So glad you have sold your images too. It is always nice to get recognition for our work.
Well you are a commercial artist now Julz! You deserve every accolade & prize money but to actually sell one that is another exciting matter! That photo will look amazing on a wall in the right place! Bet you wish you could see where they put it! Hope you get more sales!
