I just wanted to share that this painting was accepted into the Oil Painters of America competition - to be held in Chicago this spring.

Apparently if you get into 3 of their national shows you get to put a nifty OPA behind your name. I have no idea how impressive that is, or to whom it might impress, but I like the idea of having letters behind my name.

This will be my first time in their competition. I do know Bill Whittaker is an OPA Master and Tim is is as well I believe. That's good enough for me.
