My painting won a national award!!!

3rd place in the 2011 Turner Gouache Fall Painting Contest.  Sponsored by Jerry's Artarama, the work needed to be done in gouache, which is a water base, flat finish paint that has excellent reproduction qualities.  The painting is called "Koi Pond Garden" and it was an illustration created for Masterpieces Puzzle Company for release this later this year.
