We just got back from our vacation "home". I'm trying to get caught up on the mail and found this...Sounds like a fun thing to try even if you don't want to enter the contest.

oh wow...someone do this! Two weeks ago in DC we were in Union Station and they had a VSA display of the winners for this year. I think the theme was something like "through my window". The paintings, drawings, mixed media were terrific. VSA is a neat organization and everyone should check to see if their community has an active one ...and think of getting it into your town if you don't have it.
