A man true to his word! Thanks for posting the results of the competition...and I'll catch this traveling exhibit at Stone Crest in Osage Beach in Nov. but our Art Guild may view it earlier. I applaud the work of Best of Show artist, Ms Robbins, as well. I'm sure you enjoyed your 'work' at the Dunnegan Gallery!
