Each month Art Muse Contest holds an online entry, international art competition. There are two submitting categories, Master Artist and Emerging Artist. I was honored, in a far reaching competition, that In August of 2018 my paining “Here Comes the Sun” was recognized as a finalist in the Emerging Artist category.

This is what judge, nationally acclaimed water color artist Carrie Roets-Waller said about the painting:

“Great use of happy colors, nice brushstrokes, just a happy painting!”

This was an outdoor still-life painting done in my back yard in August 2018.
