The Rydell Fellowship for 2008-09

I received a call this afternoon from Project Director Jack Walsh that I have been awarded the Rydell Fellowship! I am weak in the knees! How sweet it is. Here's the site listing at the Community Foundation of Santa Cruz.
I do know that there will be a Public Presentation at the Museum of Art and History to announce the awards on March 26 from 6-8pm.
What a huge honor this is for me. I am so lucky to be in such esteemed company, following in the footsteps of Rob Larson, an artist whom I admire oh so much.

Daniella. How wonderful and exciting. People who see your work recognize the depth of your talent and are (correctly) in awe. I've been awe-struck for some time, and am very smug to be able to tell people that Daniella and I are like this (show thumb and finger together). How cool! Like, totally. Yeah, WOW!
