My Artwork Placed at P.A.C.E.!

October 20, 2009 

It’s official. I got 3 pieces into the Postcard Art Competition & Exhibition (PACE). The awards were this past weekend at the Lake County Discovery Museum and I can proudly say that three of my pieces got into the Top 36, and one even got into the Top 12! The one that placed in the top 12 will be reproduced as a postcard set and I won $150 for it as well. The pieces will be on tour for the next 1.5+ years traveling to different art museums. The PACE competition is biennial, so I keep entering multiple pieces in it hoping to win. Last time (in 2007) I only got one piece into the top 36, so this year was a total surprise that I got in three! There were a lot of really great pieces in the show besides my own. I took photos of my favorites of course…

A set of postcards of the 2009 Top 12 is available for purchase on the PACE Website. You can also buy other Postcard-themed gift items including past year’s winners on there as well. There are some really cool items! Including “The Mighty Mastadon” which I designed as a vintage-themed promo piece for them a couple years ago.

If you are interested in having a copy of “Treenatomy” which is my piece that placed into the Top 12, let me know. It is my “green” artwork since it dealt with that subject matter and it was made on my computer so there was no waste involved in creating it. Since it is a digital piece, I can reproduce versions of it and mat them for sale. Sizes come in 4″ x 6″, 5″ x 7″ and 8″ x 10″. Please email me to learn more.
