Blue Skies Ahead....Happy New Year!


If I had to choose the painting that meant the most to me in 2011 it would have to be this one 'Blue Skies Ahead'. It was actually painted at the end of last year but it makes me happy because it was chosen as the winner of the poster competition at this year's IAPS Convention. You can see the poster in a frame in the second photo. I was so surprised to be one of the five finalists and even more excited to have won. I purchased about 20 of the posters and still have some left if anyone is interested! I think that the title of the painting is appropriate for me on this New Year's Eve. I am looking forward to an exciting year full of art and friends and family! I wish you a very Happy New Year filled with blue skies!

It looks pretty cool how the flash reflection in the glass of the poster shot looks like it might be the sun glaring through the clouds...
