I seldom win anything. My daughter (who wins things all the time) would tell you it's because I seldom enter any kind of contest. This is true, likely. I don't often enter to win anything.
But
Daryl, of Woodstown Whimsies, had a drawing for three little characters he's recently made. So of COURSE I entered. And I won my favorite! The middle fellow is Fallen Angel, and he'll be headed to Arizona to hang with us at House Conwell up here in the high desert.
I will call him Mr. F.A. Clark. I had an uncle by that name, a bit of a fallen angel himself.
This was so much fun, that I am inspired to make a special doll for a giveaway next spring--say late February. Never did one of those...so I might have to investigate how it's done. Probably much easier than I think. Soon I'll have a photo of F.A. with several other artist dolls I am privileged to own. The cat and or dog may feel compelled to join the fun. F.A. probably won't mind.
He is a cutie. You are lucky to win him. I don't win much either, but it is nice to get a piece of another persons work. I had to pay for my abstract paintings I just bought and of course they don't have any names on them that I would ever know, but I do appreciate the time and talent of the person who made them. A give a way sounds like fun and it does give people a better chance to visit you and see what you are doing.
ReplyDeleteSweet!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear you won...even if it was the fallen angel!
