This painting of a train (6"x6") is from a couple of years ago, and I am posting it because I am trying to get myself back on track in terms of applying/submitting to things. I just completed my application for a NYFA fellowship, which is the first major thing I've gone for lately, and the process reminds me that it's always a good experience to go through the application even if I fear my chances are slim. I have confidence in my work, I just know that there are a lot of good artists out there. Regardless, it teaches me how to winnow both my writing and my images to present a cohesive application. And now I can take that energy I generated and try for other things.
