Thanks, and congratulations to all the other prize winners! I can't wait to see all the winning portraits. Mine was of Dr. Constantine Papadakis, President of Drexel University. I haven't even posted it here yet, but I will, in the "Unveilings" section.

To take a look, here it is:

Outstanding Garth and Alex. I'm glad to see your wonderful little bust make it in Garth!
As for me, I also got the 'ol reject letter along with those other 1200+ folks.

Alex,

That is outstanding. The composition is wonderful. Those studies done from life, I think, really helped keep the skin-tones lively.

Garth,

Gia is enchanting!

I can't help seeing the similarities between this competition and the competition for admission to the Ivy League colleges. (We just went through this with our son.) You all are so incredibly talented and deserve prizes. I wish we all could have won something.

Garth--

This is great news....your ability with both two- and three-dimensional work is an inspiration.

Hope to see you in Reston!

Big congratulations to you all !
Garth,
I don't know how I missed your unveiling , I even though you didn't finished this piece, it was such a treat to follow your WIP... Such a delicate and lively sculpture !

Alex,
very interresting ( and instructive) WIP, too! You are very talented and have a unique way of controlling big compositions.

Very well deserved awards!
(I also hope to meet you in real in Reston !)
