1st Place Photo at “Bring Your Best” Competition

On Monday, I submitted two framed photos to the “Bring Your Best” competition being held at Utah Valley University during the school’s Summer University conference. Faculty and employees from many different departments submitted art work and other crafts to the competition, and the work was reviewed and judged by a panel. I was thrilled to find out that my image, “Hidden Iron”, was given the blue ribbon in the Photography category. Woo hoo!!! It really made my day.

Below is a look at my winning image. This photo looks terrific sized 20×24 in a dark wood or black frame. Contact me by posting a comment or e-mail me through my website if would enjoy this fine art print in your office or house! (The copyright symbol, of course, will not appear on your print.)

Best Photo at the Signature Squares Art Show

I attended the opening reception at the Red Plum gallery on Friday night and was thrilled to discover that the image I submitted was chosen for “BEST PHOTO“! How cool is that? Furthermore, it was a great show… I was impressed by the quality of the other submissions by local artists. Stop by Red Plum Designs to check them out… all of the artistic pieces are going to be displayed until sold. You can buy my winning image (titled “Peaceful Flower“) there – 12″x12” with double mat, or if you want this same photo custom-sized for your home/office, you can order it through my website.

Here is the image that won Best Photo at the Signature Squares Art Show:

Local art show on Friday

Good morning! I’m taking a few precious moments of “get ready time” before I head to my other job to drop a note about an upcoming event in my area. On Friday April 3rd, at 7:30 p.m., there will be an opening reception/art show at Red Plum Designs in Orem. The title of the show is “Signature Squares” and showcases 12×12 works from local artists. I was invited by Red Plum to submit a fine art photograph for the show and am excited to be a part of this event.

This art show is taking place on the same evening as the Friday Night Gallery Stroll in Provo, so it will be another fun destination to put into your schedule if you are already out and about looking at great art. I have also been told by Red Plum’s owner that there will be fun prizes given away at the beginning of the reception, so come at 7:30 for the best chance to win!!!
