Two Honorable Mentions in the Portrait Society Members' Showcase

Many thanks to the Portrait Society of America for awarding Honorable Mentions to two of my paintings in the 2010-11 Members' Showcase Competition! The categories were lots of fun this year for a lot of artists like me who not only paint portraits, but also other genres, including landscape and still life.
The Porcupines From Cadillac, 28" x 42"--!st Honorable Mention, Landscape

Louis I. Kahn, 52" x 36" 5th Honorable Mention, Noncommissioned Portrait

The "Outside the Box" category was a great idea--it was a lot of fun thinking about what to enter, and I'm curious to see how some of the other artists interpreted the idea and what they entered.
