We have had several posts and shared a lot of information about our artwork at Wildwood Park; but, one thing we didn't share is that we received first place from the Guest Evaluator Shawn Williams! Last Friday evening we attended the Artist's Reception where this announcement was made and on Sunday a first place ribbon was delivered to our site. We're so honored and happy to receive this recognition!! Two other pieces of information yet to be shared are the answer to our most asked question on Sunday... "How long / How many hours did it take to complete this?" We spent some time crunching the numbers earlier this week and total working time was about 21.5 hours. The other is we've completed the entire time lapse recording sequence from blank site to completed art installation in about 5 minutes with is available to be viewed at: https://youtu.be/iFP-lhQ2iVY Artist's Statement / Backstory: Each year I revisit the goals, mission, values, vision, and other documents to ensure they align with what's been accomplished and where the business will be going. In early 2025 I wrote the goal: "WIN AN AWARD!" [in all caps just like you see it here]. I knew writing the goal would be a lot easier than completing it; but, here we are! I was absolutely shocked when the slideshow concluded with the slide you're seeing as today's image! You're still able to see our creation and the other eighteen installations through the end of September and vote for your favorite through mid-September!
