and the winner is...

congrats to heather from starving artist designs! my beautiful friend has won the self-portrait contest. the panel was especially in love with her artistic approach by including layers of meaning into her photograph.  heather says 'The text in my picture is a quote from one of my favorite books, The Awakening, by Kate Chopin and behind that is an old portrait of my grandmother from about 1930.'

pretty special, right!?  i wonder where she'll have me go for our photo session?  i can't wait!
