Wonderful news, Linda! And such a well-deserved award! I always think that your work has a Bastien-Lepage quality which is so appealing.

update

Thanks everyone for the comments! Well the fair is over and I'm so happy to report that I've sold the painting at it's asking price to a major art collector here in Minnesota who saw the painting at the show. The cool thing too is that he is in the process of constructing an art museum in Armenia, and so maybe I'll be able to say that I actually have a work hanging in a museum soon - and a painting of my son no less.

Dreams do come true!
Linda

Congrats Linda, that's well-deserved. What a beautiful work you produced. Maybe someday I'll visit it in a Museum.

Linda, I saw your painting at the fair last Saturday! It's wonderful! Steven was right; it caused traffic jams! Congratulations!

Hi Linda,

I would like to congratulate you as well. I had not seen this painting before and have to say that I just love the color scheme and the refreshing pose. You did a wonderful job and the award is well deserved.

It's gorgeous! I am in love with the color scheme. I am a huge fan of those warm, Fall colors.
