I'm pleased to tell you that Canopy was chosen for a Juror's Choice award at Finding Our Place: The Geography of Art at the Annmarie Sculpture Garden and Arts Center in Dowell, Maryland.  There were three juror's choice awards and mine was chosen for "the best work representing the literal meaning of place." I must say I'm surprised to be chosen as representing the literal meaning of anything! The juror was Mary Savig, Curator of Manuscripts, Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. I'm honored.
