I won TWO Awards at the Calgary Stampede art show! 'Best of Show' gallery choice award ( which sold)and 'Best New Artist' award in the art auction! You can see which ones here [link]

I've decided to challenge myself. My blog [link] will now be used for daily painting ( hopefully one completed every day or so)I will post reference photos, news, my techniques, inspirations, other artists etc. I'm going to force myself to paint and 'talk' more.I won't always be posting the same images on DA so you may want to follow my blog. I'm also going to participate in Karin Jurick's 'Different Strokes for Different Folks' bi-weekly challenge....she's a great artist and you should look her up....[link] . Many thanks again for the favs and the comments to which I will try and respond.
