These are the three pieces of artwork I submitted to the Spencer Fair this past Labor Day weekend. I put in one item for three categories: oil painting, water color painting and pencil. As I climbed the stairs to see how well I did, hoping I had a ribbon for one piece of work, I was completely amazed to see that all of my work had ribbons! The oil painting and pencil pieces had second place ribbons and the water color not only had a first place ribbon, but a giant red "Reserve Champion" ribbon, which I found out later meant the best in the category! How totally happy I felt! My work has been validated and appreciated. It is amazing that, unknown to the judges, I was competing against myself!
Congratulations Annie!
