Yay for chicken wire

December always feels like such a down time for art.  Lots of clouds and a definitive lack of awesome plants to shoot.  Always the month where I consider packing it in and moving back to the area I grew up in or heading for the coast.

This December at least there's glitter in the form of the holiday ornaments I've stapled to my living room ceiling.  Yay for chicken wire.  Only six weeks to go before the flowers start to get interesting again.

Applied again for Cherry Creek last week.  I noticed this year they've moved to allowing people to submit up to 20 applications... At $40 a piece...

Such is the price of hope, although lets be honest here.  Allowing people to submit more than 5 apps is just preying on people's hope, and frankly most of us don't have a large enough body of work to have 80 unique and amazing images.  I restrained myself and only put in two apps.  Fingers crossed.
