Thanks to alicexz (https://www.deviantart.com/alicexz) for the feature, truly appreciated! I came on today and noticed a spike in page views, logged in and was confused as to why I had so many messages!
Also, I recently received a scholarship from the Palette and Chisel and I'm going to be a finalist in an exhibition at the Union League of Chicago tomorrow night, May 31st, from 5:30 - 7:30. More info on my blog: http://adam-nowak.blogspot.com/2012/05/union-league-and-palette-and-chisel.html
