Last night, I attended the Juried show, "Locally Sourced" at The Alliance Gallery in Clarendon (Arlington, VA). 30 paintings out of the 100 submitted were in the show, with my painting "Autumn Falls on Georgetown" being one of the ones selected. The judge, Yigit Cakar, a commissioner for the Arts, picked the paintings that are in the show and the ones that won prizes. To my surprise, I won 1st place! I was so thrilled. The painting also found a new home, so it was a double blessing for me. Winning an award is always a wonderful feeling for an artist. Thank you judge, Yigit Cakar, for making my day!
