Here is my 2017 IPC SILVER MEDAL case! 😊

We are allowed 4 entries each year. All of my images were accepted into the Merit Collection, and then one was chosen for acceptance into the prestigious Loan Collection and will be published in the annual book. I am honored that the judges appreciated my hard work on these images.

Congratulations to everyone who entered – print competition is not for the faint of heart! Now on to creating for 2018 IPC! District judging is in the Spring!
