My son Jacob peers out the window. No, this photo has nothing to do with this post, beyond the fact that I shot it last week.
Sometimes I spend a lot of time applying for grants and it looks like a giant waste of time. But then, when I actually win something, it all feels worthwhile.
This week I am celebrating two wishes granted.
I was accepted by the New York Foundation for the Arts to participate in their MARK Program for artist professional development.
And I received a grant from the National Press Photographers Association for Multimedia Immersion.
Both will be great programs.
Unfortunately, the third grant I won recently — a Rotary International month-long exchange to Taiwan — I had to decline because my life is too full right now. Maybe next year.
