There really was a variety of work there. The newly elected president of the MASF was there at the show, whom I met for the first time &#8211; he told me that the collection of paintings that I had in the show sold out. :D (I was also told a little bit about some of my newest collectors&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I was very pleased to attend the exhibition with Joan Willies RMS (originally from the UK, an accomplished miniature artist and author that I met the first year I entered the MASF exhibition) and the workshop of artists that she brought to the exhibit. :D<\/p>\n<p>Joan was hosting a workshop, teaching miniature art, at her studio in Florida. There were students who flew in from different parts of the US for her course that week. &#8230;and being in Florida already, of course I HAD to go see her! :D (She&#8217;s a sweetheart, who could resist!)  &#8230;as anyone who has had the experience knows, lunch with a workshop of artists is completely unforgettable!! ;) Too much fun! &#8230;and everyone was (and is) so sweet!! I was pleasantly surprised to see familiar faces, too. :D  The &quot;art chats&quot; were fabulous!!  (Thanks so much, Joan!! :D )<\/p>\n<p>These are a few more photos from Florida&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"455\" height=\"492\" class=\"image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lathamstudios.com\/rebeccasblog\/UserFiles\/Image\/2008\/DSCN6353.jpg?resize=455%2C492\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"455\" height=\"341\" class=\"image\" alt=\"image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lathamstudios.com\/rebeccasblog\/UserFiles\/Image\/2008\/DSCN6363.jpg?resize=455%2C341\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"455\" height=\"341\" class=\"image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lathamstudios.com\/rebeccasblog\/UserFiles\/Image\/2008\/DSCN6367.jpg?resize=455%2C341\" alt=\"\" \/> <\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; This is a photo slide show of the MASF exhibition in Largo, Florida (where one of my paintings was awarded the Best Work by a Young Artist Award).
