I'd also like to see who else may have joined our good company in rejections! I've been rejected for so many exhibits through the years... but then accepted in quite a few, too. I'm going to decide if this will be my last venture into the world or juried exhibits or not. Just too subjective for the spirit to take, sometimes, it seems. That's one of the fabulous things about the small format exhibit that's open to all. So many times there are fantastically exciting things being done that come to open exhibits that, for some reason or another, might not attract a juror's eye. I learn so much by seeing tapestries... the more available to see, the more learning that takes place!<BR/>Tommyetommyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08399586484447837494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32591426.post-86877886569463987592009-02-14T20:14:00.000-08:002009-02-14T20:14:00.000-08:00HI Lyn!I'm also hoping to take Kathe Todd-Hooker's...HI Lyn!<BR/>I'm also hoping to take Kathe Todd-Hooker's Color and Tapestry class at IWC this year.
