I know the image is tiny so I will explain what it is below.
Southwest Art Magazine has chosen me as the first prize winner for a feature on:
' 21 Artists Over 31' - Talented Artists You Need To Know.
It is a tremendous honor to be showcased with a host of artists who are all very accomplished. I have seen a few images from the feature, however, I have not seen it in person, so I can't speak anymore about the greatness you will witness from the other artists. From what I have seen, it should provide a breadth of variety and different perspectives on art. In all honesty, I don't know how I was chosen above 2000+ artists who sent in their paintings. I'd just like to say thank you to the good folks over at Southwest Art and those putting the feature together.
Along with being in the feature and having an interview in the interior, my painting was also selected for the cover. The image is a cropped section of a more horizontal and panoramic interior of Grand Central Station. It comes as a great accolade and holds significant personal meaning for me. Here is a preview for the article:

I look forward to flipping through the feature and see a wealth of other talented artists.

That's great news! Congratulations!!
Hi Joshua...you were chosen (and put on the cover) because it's a darned good painting! I've seen several people now look at it and spontaneously say, "Oh, I *like* that one...that's really nice!" So congratulations on your well-deserved honor!
