Best in Show Title: Soulmates
Size: 3 x 3 inches
Support: Multimedia artboard

I am very happy to report that this little painting has won Best in Show at 2012 Spanish Moss Miniature Art Show hosted by Alabama Miniature Art Society.
The models are Benny (right) and Temmy (left). These two cats were literally soulmates. Temmy followed Benny everywhere. This award is especially precious to me because Benny passed on a little over a year ago at the age of 19. Temmy was very lonely for a while but she now seems to be getting closer to some of our other cats.

New Still Life Painting Size: 5 x 5 inches
Support: Multimedia Artboard

This is my still life painting for the upcoming San Mateo County show in June. I mostly paint animals, but I enjoyed painting this Fuji apple. Hopefully this will win something at the show.
