In the fall of ‘03, I ventured into Austin TX, and started displaying my works there

I had two shows in October: One at Triannon Coffee, and the other was at Texspresso (their South Austin location)

In December, I participated in the First Annual National Arts Program Exhibition in Austin

I made custom frames for the two artworks that I submitted

I entered them under the ‘Adult: Intermediate’ category and received an Honorable Mention for ‘The Depressive Suppression of Inverted Happiness’ (my left, your right)
