Yesterday, I received a call from CultureMap Houston announcing that I was CultureMap’s and Lawndale Art Center’s People’s Choice Award Winner for the 2011 Big Show! I was absolutely delighted. With awards/grants/proposals, I have always been told that decisions are partially based on who the juror/jury is each year. Everyone has an opinion and we have to accept that our work may not always fit one person’s opinion of good art.
