And The Winner Is...


Last May prior to the end of the semester at the Santa Fe Community College the director of the Media department came into our class to announce that the college was opening a student run gallery that would show work from students and faculty. She also stated that there would be a contest to design the logo which would be used for the gallery and all marketing materials. I entered the contest on a whim and to my surprise I won! This is photo of the opening from last Friday, it was a really nice turn out and there was some great art to see.

You all know how much time I spend walking along this street and the funny thing is that when I first came to Santa Fe over 10 years ago this was the very first building I stood in front of when I arrived in town. Funny how things happen.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.

Wow, Randy, we are really proud of you and happy for you! Congratulations! Interestingly enough, when I was a young woman and went off to college, I had a mentor, an elderly gentleman who was known by the nickname "Red Dot." His logo on his business and marketing materials was - you got it - a big red dot!
