grateful news

recently i received news that another of my paintings will be published! i had submitted the painting for consideration this past fall and patiently waited to hear....those magic words- "you have been selected." the book is Incite 2 Color Passions: The Best of Mixed Media! 

the link to see the full list of selected artists can be found here. 

when i opened their page and read the paragraph with the published names- the words that are used are so humbling to me- "these artists represent the best mixed media work currently being created." 

i painted this a short time ago, but, it remains one of my favorites and i have kept this particular painting in my private collection- "Three Sisters".....

 

this time being published is a little unique because my mom had also submitted a painting for consideration, unbeknownst to me, and she received good news as well, so we will be published in the same book together! how cool is that?
