3 "Highly Commended" Awards in the past 3 days!
One off winning $1,250.
One off winning another $1,250.
And one off winning $5,000.
Don't know whether I should accept congratulations or commiserations.
I hadn't known until I collected my paintings today that I had been awarded two "High Commendations" for my entries in the Camden Art Prize.
I had been awarded the "Highly Commended" for "The Art of Navigation". This is a memento mori painting of antique navigation instruments, and pays tribute to the famous 18th century navigator La Perouse.

Golly, shenanigans on the lower NS, eh?
Well done on the commendations, but commisserations of the lack of income!
I shouldn't whinge as I've won Hunters Hill & Camden many times. Who would think Hunters Hill was such a hotbed of crime... or they're trying out for the next Underbelly spinoff.
