You win some - you lose some

I got quite excited a couple of days ago because Fiona pointed out that my artists’ book for the SCU 5th Acquisitive Artists’ Book Award was featured in the Imprint Quarterly Journal Summer 2009. It felt good to have done a good piece of work; to have it acquired; and to have it featured in the journal.



But two days later I found out that my artists’ book for the Mackay Libris Book Awards was not accepted - though Fiona’s was – good on her. It just reinforced the fact that in the art world you win some and you lose some and you just move on –not bitter and twisted!!!??? - just searching for other opportunities.
