Plein Air Salon Semi-finalist. I am one of 184 artists who received First Place in separate categories of the monthly “Plein Air Salon” competition in 2023. We are now semi-finalists for the annual awards which will be presented at PACE conference May 20-24, 2024. My chances are slim, but its an honor to make it this far out of the 1000’s of entries. The competition is sponsored by Plein Air Magazine.
