@lee-white Thanks for 2nd place and your positive feedback. Means the world to me, and is very encouraging. Has the critique component gone away?

P.S. Congrats to all the artists that were recognized. There were so many awesome submissions.

Sarah LuAnn

Wow! Third place means a lot when there were so many amazing entries. I’m so flattered!

For the record, I do want to make a t shirt. I would like to make an actual linocut of this image and print it on various things (cards, shirts) someday. But first I need sleep .

@sarah-luann sleep with little ones? What is that?
