The Australian Creative Design Awards



Here is "Miss Velvetina Water Vole" my miniature entry in the Australian Creative Design awards (ACDAs) as organised by Bear Artists Online based in Australia. The 2011 theme was for an imagined Beatrix Potter character, and so I created a tubby little water vole - an endangered native species in the UK,but a rodent which would have been very familiar to Beatrix herself. I am very proud, and delighted, to say that Miss Velvetina was chosen as one of the ten nominees, and went through to hands-on judging. You can see all the wonderful entrants here and you can vote for one piece as "The People's Photographic Choice" until 4th June, 2011.

All of the competition entries will be available to adopt over at the online show, BAO from Wednesday 1st June to Sunday, 5th June - please follow the link here and on my sidebar, left.The final winners will be announced on Sunday, 5th too!

I hope you will enjoy visiting the show! :0)
