This is really exciting for me!

I have had my work accepted into the Eastern Canada Pastel Society International juried show in Montreal.  OO la la

It's my first acceptance into a show outside of the US and as I stood reading the letter announcing my acceptance I could not believe my eyes - BOTH pieces that I entered were accepted. 

I just kept holding the letter and repeating TWO? TWO? TWO???  

You bet your butt I'm going to Montreal for the opening - or as they call it there the "vernissage". It is on November 6th and that's close enough to my anniversary for my husband and I to justify a little weekend trip and eat at Chez la Mere Michel as recommended by my long-time friend, Lauren, who lived in Montreal for a while. 

Here are the 2 pieces.
