 A national juried self-portrait competition
of limited size and I entered a 8x10 oil on canvas painting.

David Kassan, a realist portrait artist from Brooklyn,
 New York was the Juror for the show. 
David is known for his incredibly detailed life-size portraits,
 and it was an honor to hear him speak.

Being a Parent is a Blessing.

I cried today at Sams school.
 I heard a lil girl say to her,
 "I don't have a Mom" 
it broke my heart.
 That lil girl held my hand the whole time I was there.
 Ive held onto this disposable thing for 9 years,
 so much longer
 than some hold onto a life they created...
It doesnt make sense.
