March 28, 2012, "FAA Artistic Merit Award". This award is passed from one Fine Art America artist to another. Each artist who receives the award is honored by having the FAA Artistic Merit Award for one month. At the end of their month they must pick the next artist to honor. Artists are picked for not only their accomplishments as a visual artist but also their contributions to the FAA community. This tradition was started three years ago. I am the 32 artist to receive the award.
