Showdown: an Art Game with a real winner

Dear Readers-
Please click on this link to see a painting I've entered in the Showdown competition in London. You'll find info about the competition if you're interested as well as a bigger version of the artwork which can be seen above. (HINT - click on the star that ranks it as a 10!)

Regardless of whether you love the painting I've entered in this silly endeavor... or not... please consider that your vote could make a difference! Anything is possible today with the internet and reality tv creating lines of communication between artists and the public. Art and Democracy... what a strange concept in the Bush era!
But then the competition is in London and the winnings are in pounds sterling. (very good for someone who pays a mortgage and studio expenses in US dollars!)

Please consider Jennifer Hudson winning an academy award. Who would have predicted that? She was a contestant on American Idol for those of you who have other things to do than watch the Tube. I do, too but I grew up doing my homework with the TV on. No wonder I'm ADD! Actually I've never seen American Idol but I did see the academy awards and I must admit I was impressed with the impact this silly show could have on someone's life and art. Who'd a thunk it? SO - This art game will have a real winner so I would sincerely appeciate your vote when you click on this link !!!

Thanks in advance for your time and consideration of this request. Voting ends around noon on Sunday or 5pm or 6pm in London time. Its posted so please don't delay! In the meantime, Happy March!
