Well, I didn't get into the Royal Society of Portrait Painters Competition. And I didn't get into the BP Award. Oh, there were tears, don't get me wrong. As well as the horrible feelings that come around with not placing and getting the "We regret to inform you..." letters. "LOSER" was the first word that came to mind, for example!
BUT.... Boo did place very very well and both of my paintings came back unharmed. I also know what is going to be painted for BP 2013, which is good. Or at least I think I know. ;-) Now I have turned the virtual page of sorrow and disappointment and am working hard on getting my story told. Finally I can paint what I have always wanted to paint! So that's a very good thing. Guess you could say the page has definitely been turned and the next chapter is looking damned tasty. As my good friend Bryan says, "Onwards and Upwards" and that is what I fully intend to do. I'm not giving up, not by a long shot. :-) :-) :-) :-)
