Strangeways double

Bit of an 'all in the family' moment last night at the Alice Advocate Art Awards:  Bean won the Stories sectional prize with Almost Once

And I won the Faces prize with Watching the Slow Dissolve

Really lovely comments from the judges too, which we both very much appreciated (and it was only then I think I noticed the commonalities in theme between both pieces:  the whole transience thing of Keats and that mob:  I'm sure someone could have a field day analysing that . . .).

Fantastic and scary:  not sure which one of us will look most rabbit in the headlights when the photos come out: it'll be a close thing.
