Thanks Richard,
Among the 2005 PSOA finalists active on this Forum, I am only aware of Tony and myself. I would like to acknowledge Linda Brandon, and David Kassan, who are each getting Merit awards (out of a total of five Merit recipients). Chris Saper, Sergio Ostroverhy, and Marvin Mattelson have been awarded Certificates of Recognition (out of about fifteen in this category). All in all, this is a commendable showing of active Portrait Artist Forum members on the 2005 PSOA winners lists. We are each included in the Top 32, or so. If I have missed anyone, please let us know and chime in!
Tony,
About the judging procedure, David Kassan ( a top 10, actually a top 5 finalist last year) had coffee with me last night in Philly. He described the same process that you heard Christine Egnoski relate to you. That pretty much verifies the procedure in place. It was good to see David again!
