I sent in slides last year and would do it again in a heartbeat but i don't have slides of my new work and getting them made at this point is beyond my budget. If only they accepted digital images! Perhaps i will send different images but from the same body of work.
Yesterday was the first day in a long time i was able to paint. I started experimenting with pigment mixed with rabbit skin glue and layering the paint, similar to how i paint in oil and beeswax. I painted two layers and left them to dry.
