Of contest entries and nerves..
It's in.
Due to circumstances beyond my control - (ie some unid'd person carelessly forgot to relid a fish-bowl with a bubbler and one of the two drawings I wanted to enter was - you guessed it, replaced over it and suffered water-damage) - only one image went in.
Maybe next year I can do two - but we'll have to see how it goes. /That/ will almost certainly require renting a vehicle by then...
The State Fairgrounds are /huge/ though - you could easily squeeze the Yamhill County Fair into a small corner of the State Fairgrounds. You might even be able to do that with the Washington County Fair - although I haven't been to that in a long time.
With my entry, I got an invitation to the Artist's Reception the ... 25th? I think ... which I'm seriously considering attending.
Nerves, though - I /know/ I said I've got no expectations, but they let us have a look at the competition before we left. I was impressed. Some of the stuff entered was excellent - and I'm not just talking about /my/ entry! ^^
So, yeh. Nerves. Big time. ^^
I'll probably know /before/ the thing lets out though - they say there'll be a notice sent to all the artists who entered - this coming Friday? Would make sense.
Ai, crap - gotta call the vet Monday, and get Omen an appointment for his next series of shots. He'll be thrilled, I'm sure. ^^
