I'm stoked. My treepee won the peoples' choice award at the exhibition worth $700 worth of prizes and I conned the gallery to let me leave it on the street (above). It's a risk because it could be stolen or damaged but it's great promotion as it's the main street of Hamilton, one of our biggest cities and right next to their prestigious museum.
We also did a round trip to Tauranga to deliver the portrait I painted of Elpie for her 50th birthday on Xmas Eve. Yes that is a gorgeous single malt whiskey from her fathers' distillery at Campbelltown on the Mull of Kintyre in my arms. Fair swap!!

Shubhajit...the enjoyment of the single malt WILL bring more happiness to mind and body. Thanks for your wishes and send mine.
Gerben....the eggnog gets the Mekong whiskey (same colour as the river!) that I brought back from Thailand. Happy Christmas to you and Mirjam.
Fern...baby I'm missin your site.
The peoples choice award is ...choice. It means a lot of people enjoyed it. Could also mean that it is bland, middle of the road, not cutting edge.
No the prizes don't mean much, just a bit of fun. Hair styling for Denise (I'm past that), V8 tickets for Sam (the petrol head) and vouchers for Lilys' Powder Room which definitely sounds like me!!
congrats! you deserve it.
