First Place!

The Expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden
The Expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden

 

Late last night we received notice that the Expulsion painting received First Place

at the Illinois State Fair! We are thrilled for the honor.

The last State Fair, we also received the First Place award for

The Miraculous Draught of Fishes.

 

 

Those two paintings, as with this image here from the Conversion of Saul on the Road to Damascus, all show complete surprise on the main faces. God does surprising things! Yes, we were surprised. There were many wonderful pieces in this year's show. As we were dropping off the painting, one of the organizers said to us. "I sure would hate to be a painter trying to compete with all this." We had to agree with him. So it is a good show to see, and worth the time should you happen to be in Illinois. The State Fair opens Thursday the 12th and runs through August 22.

 

Thanks for Reading!
