Everyone who's known me on this board over the years already knows that my daughter, Andi, is a painting major at Savannah College of Art and Design.  The biggest event there each year is the annual Sidewalk Arts Festival, which was held today.  Over 10,000 people attend the event.  The biggest category of student participants is the individual student category (one student, one sidewalk square), with thousands of students competing in this category.  Andi won 1st place in this category today!!   I'm still beside myself and amazed.  This is a really big deal for her!   She'll be on the news tonight and in the papers tomorrow.  We are so freaking happy for her!!

That *is* a really big deal, Proud Momma -- is it good genes (i.e. are you artistic too?) or did the apple fall far from the tree?

Hi Mags, I've sketched some, but never really applied myself.
