The Energen Art Reception

Well, my friend Michele Lee and I went down to Birmingham today for the Energen art competition reception. Boy was it an upscale event! Michele and I were in awe of the artists work and the catered foods all so lovely to look at and even better to eat! The above picture is of a lady whose department purchased one of my paintings. I didn't get her name or what department she worked in though, but thanks to all those in that department for choosing my art.
This gentleman did the honors of presenting all the monetary prizes to the winners.
Michele and I snuck out of the front doors of the company to eat at the outdoor tales that they had set up. What your looking at but can't really see is some of THE best chef prepared foods around! Michele and I met the chef and paid our compliments too.
Here is Michele with her painting as it was displayed.
Here's me with one of mine, "White Diamonds Black Night".
And finally here I am again with the painting that sold, "Blowin In the Wind".
