2008 Canning Show Art Awards

Sunday, January 11th, 2009

I know I was supposed to make this post way back in November, but things have been so hectic with the house and christmas, so I am still playing catch-up.

The awesome news is that I was awarded a lovely blue and gold sash and certificate for receiving the most points in the art competition at the 2008 Canning Show:)  I have to admit to being very surprised and pleased, because there were a huge number of entries of really good quality work.  The artwork that received awards were:

First Prize: Painting – Pastel category: “Peaches & Cream” Pomeranian in Pastels

Frist Prize: Painting – Drawing Any Subject: “We Three Kings II – Lion” Colour Pencil

Second Prize: Painting – Drawing Any Subject: “Blink” Cat in Colour Pencil

Third Prize: Painting – Drawing Any Subject: “Noble” German Shepherd Dog in charcoal

LOL yes that was a hat trick in the Drawing Any Subject category:)

That was the same weekend that we saw our new home for the first time, so all in all it was a wonderful day!
