I was one of the finalists in Only Original's International Art Competition.  You can go here to see the winner's work plus a selection of all the finalists' work, or you can go here to see my page.  The judge not only wrote a statement for the winner, but she also wrote a statement for each of the finalists detailing her thoughts on the work.  It's interesting to actually see the judge's thoughts paired with the accepted work.

Here's an interesting write up the Biennial Project did for their first Boston Online Biennial, plus a list of the winners and honorable mentions.

My work has been accepted into two shows.  Aggregate I is now being shown in the Boston Online Biennial 2011.  Lots of other interesting contemporary work is in the show, so check it out here.  It's put on by The Biennial Project.  Take a look around their website.  They are an interesting group.  Also, Simultaneous Systems II will be in the Ohio All Media Show held in the Coburn Gallery.  The gallery is part of Ashland University in Ashland, Ohio.  The show runs from June 26th to July 29th with an opening reception on Sunday June 26th from 2 to 4.

I thought this was an interesting and inspiring read.  Take a look at it if you ever get stuck.
