Bissett Wins Award of Merit!
Two paintings accepted to show

AWARD OF MERIT WINNER

Fishermen
24x24'
Acrylic on canvas

ALSO ACCEPTED TO SHOW

Clouds on the Kootenai
30x24"
Acrylic on canvas

The ISAP International Fall Online Show is now installed at www.isaponline.com . There were 97 images juried in by John Cogan out of approximately 300 entries from 36 US states and 11 foreign countries. The Show Director tells me that this is a beautiful, ecclectic and very strong show. The Award Meter now stands at just over $4000 in awards for the show. Invite all your friends to view this first International Open Show by ISAP. A special event of this show will be a viewing area called the Back Room where those paintings that didn't make the main show can be viewed.

Sketch, pen on paper, from today.

Pastels (simulated)

Trying to make it look like pastel on the computer.
Looks like thousands of individual strokes.
Really it's very fast and easy.

Official Photo (doctored)

Don't have any decent pix of me. I took myself in the basement this afternoon and Paintshopped it with a picture of St. Mark's from a few years ago. Looks ok for now.
