I am excited to share that "Chocolate Martini" won an Award of Merit at the National Oil and Acrylic Painters' Society's Small Paintings Exhibit held at RS Hanna Gallery in Fredericksburg, TX.   I attended the show opening events this last weekend and was present to accept the award.  The artwork in the show was wonderful......I am so glad I was not the one judging for awards.  Thank you to the judge, Bill Kawlick,  for selecting my painting for an award.   There was a great turnout for the show events by participating artists  and the reception itself was crowded as it was timed with the Frederickburg First Friday Artwalk.  RS Hanna Gallery is a beautiful gallery and a wonderful host for the show.  The show remains open through April 6th.  Definitely a great weekend!
