A Nice Way to Start 2010

This morning I started the day like any other: had breakfast, played with my son and then checked my email. When I did, I was surprised and happy to see that I had an email from the Society of Illustrators of Los Angeles's saying that my painting, "She Loves Me (she loves me not)," was selected to be in the gallery section of the SI-LA's illustration annual #48 (this is the second year in a row I've been included). I will be sure to provide a link when the annual goes live later this year.

2010 is looking good so far!)
