ACCEPTED


I just found out that this painting was accepted into the Society of Illustrators of Los Angeles Illustration West 49 show. It's the first time I've had anything accepted anywhere so it gives me the encouragement to keep going on with this project.....and to the bar.

Blimey, an absolutely cast iron excuse to go to the pub as often as possible. Result! Fab news dude, no one deserves it more. And for me, the painting of Bill's will be even better.

Gosh! Congrats, mate! Love the way you capture the environment and atmosphere so well in your pieces!

CHEERS! All around. Good work my friend. The piece deserves some notice, I'm glad the SOI thinks so too.

Congratulations! But I noticed you painted most of "Angry Girl" out in the left and put "Hoodie Guy" in front of her.

Pure class Steve, pure class. It was only a matter of time my friend.

Congrats!
McSorley's seems to be a success spot for you. First the Stevan Dohanos award, now this! You should go there more often.
