John, I am so thrilled for you! Congratulations 
I also have had a drawing accepted, and am now tracking down the mom of my subject t get a permission form to her...if your drawing is of a person (?!) you may need another permission form in addition to the package, you can call me if you have any questions...
The last book was beautifully produced, and I loved the variety of drawings included!

Pat,
Thanks. Its a sketch I did from life of my daughter when she first came home. I never intended for it to be anything except my reaction to such a wonderful (and scary) event).
Chris, I saw the first book and I agree. It is very diverse and I feel privileged to have been accepted.

John, Chris : congratulations!
John, it's a nice drawing, you captured very well the expression of such a young person. I'm really wondering what she had in mind...
Chris, I hope we will see your drawing before the publication, if you have an opportunity to post it on the Forum.
I just heard that my drawing "Somme" will be included also. The letter was almost lost in a pile of letters, but fortunately I found it. I'm very happy because drawing is a big part of my work...

Marina,
What a beautiful drawing.
As a new father I often asked the same thing - what are you thinking?
I must ask you and Chris to please be careful where you step as I feel I am walking with giants.
Thomasin, thank you for your kind words. I've always loved the drawing but I could never completely divorce myself from my emotional connection to be truly objective so I was and am pleased that it has received some recognition.

John it is so sweet. Hard, very hard, to draw a newborn and you did a sensitive, beautiful job.
Marina, congrats and I love this drawing of yours, too.
Chris, post your drawing, please!!!

I have moved this into the appropriate section, which is Member News. Opportunities and Rewards is for upcoming things to which artists can submit.
