Smiling at the Guggenheim
This Saturday evening my linocut, "Goose on Lake" won Third Place at the Orange Art Association "Orange Open". There were 220 entries comprising 9 categories. "Goose on Lake" won in the Drawing/Illustration-Print Making-3D category. The Orange Open exhibit is being held at the Guggenheim Gallery at Chapman University in the City of Orange. By the way, the Third Place ribbon came with a cash prize!

Congratulations! =)
I think that the goose and ear look promising, looking forward to see it finished.
Thanks Roger for your much appreciated comment.
The goose/ear/bell/block/drape/fabric warm/cool still life has been challenging. I hope to finish it before the Summer Session Painting 1 class ends in a few weeks. Right now it remains an academic exercise.
Returning to the basics has been very exciting. Just this past week, I spent 15 hours of additional work on the painting.
Always great, though expected, news.
Bravo Bernard and well deserved. I know how hard you worked on your carvings. The goose was one of my favorites, so no surprise. Congratulations.
Deb,
Thanks for your continuing support.
Bernard
Victoria,
Thank you very much!

Congratulations on the cash prize! Sweet! Your goose has a nice craftsmen era look about it.
Thanks r! I am still amazed that cutting and inking a piece of linoleum could result in such a pleasent artistic surprise.
I look forward to seeing more on your coffee dot theme. Just thinking about your recent paintings makes my mouth water for a crumb covered donut and a carmel latte.
Our boys have been making linocuts with my husband. They have such fun. I look forward to showing this photo of yours to them. And, congratulations on the award!
Thanks, Liz.
