The Angst of Competition
OK, so I entered 2 paintings for a state wide competition at the Muskegon Museum of Art. It's juried so you have to be accepted to compete. I didn't get it. Very sad. So I go to pick up my paintings. Big pain, 90 minute drive to go back and get them, not to mention the entry fee. So while I am there, I look at the exhibit. AND, this is a BIG AND! I recognize one of the accepted works from a homework assignment from my on line classes. Not a project or anything that would require any creative thought. Just a drawing from a picture of a model provided by the school. Oh UGH! I could have just entered my version of the same drawing!
