Thank you and the Light Space Time Gallery for choosing my work in such a wonderful competition! I am truly honored. I have shared on Facebook with exuberant response! I have said to them, what I LOVED about this competition was what we COULD submit, vs. what we COULD NOT. There are often so many restrictions, that as a creative being, it is frustrating to be so limited. So, thank you for that. Wishing you and the LST community a blessed, healthy, prosperous and wildly creative… Read more "Amy Lilley, Centennial, Colorado"

Thank you so much for the Special Merit award it is so nice to be recognized. Recently I have started a Facebook page and I plan to make my own website.  Your articles have been very helpful, especially for those of us with no formal training it can be difficult to know where to start.  I am having a lot of fun and that is really what it should be about. Again thank you!!  Edie Reed - www.artwanted.com/Ediescreations

Thanks so much John! I have my first solo show on Aug 6-20 in Brisbane. This painting is my keystone work and the exhibition is titled after it.

Just an update that the sale went through and I delivered the piece this afternoon.  Despite having my own website and social media feeds, the additional exposure through Artsy.net is making a difference in getting my art seen by potential buyers. Thank you so much!  Judi Lapsley Miller  - www.artbyjlm.com

Thank you so much for your kind words. I am truly honoured that my painting was selected for the Special Merit Award. I have always been I guess my own worst critic and really didn't feel my paintings were as good as professional artists. My husband convinced me to enter your Art Competition and I am so glad I did. I now feel differently about my artistic abilities and for that I am very grateful! I am looking forward to entering another Art Competition with Light… Read more "Tracy Noseworthy, NL, Canada"
