HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE

I'm super excited! My Dipnet wall pockets were chosen to be in the All Alaska Juried XXXV show at the Anchorage museum. https://www.anchoragemuseum.org/exhibits/all-alaska-juried-xxxv/
They picked only 40 pieces (out of 600) to be exhibited, so it's a wonderful feeling. Also I was given one out of five $500.00 merit awards.  It's really great to be acknowledged for something that I worked long and hard on.
When I was in Juneau my brother dug out this old piece of beadwork that I had made him many, many years ago. It's funny to see my early attempts, but also nice to know that long hours at the bead table and lots and lots of practice can really pay off!
