Santa Fe Basket Weavers wins an award

I entered the above in the student show. It won an Award of Merit by the college Arts Council: $100 and a certificate. Pretty cool. I only entered the one thing because of the disaster with last semester's pour [virtually all of the 20 some projects failed...it was a bad day for everyone.] So I entered this just to have something in the show and I did not expect to win anything. There were 280 entries and about 20 awards. So, this is amazing. To have a jury of arts profs, community members and professionals think my work was good enough to get an award two years in a row is powerful encouragement. I also listed this piece for sale. No bites yet but the show just opened two days ago.
