Alphons Wintersprize

The Alphons Wintersprize was made public yesterday evening. No, I did not win the prize or one of the honorary mentions. But I was not disappointed, far from that. The winners delivered really fabulous work, far better than mine.

I am proud to be chosen through the selection stages and having reached this final round.
And if I look at the final exhibition I see very high quality of the works, and it amazes me that the jury considered my work to be fitting among them.
And that with a portriat, something I could not do decently a few years ago.
Here is the portriat of Anne, painted two years ago in a live portrait session.
