Congratulations to BRAVA member Kim Radatz who just walked away with the $15,000 Best of Show award at Tampa's prestigious Gasparilla Festival of the Arts! Although this linked article in the St. Pete Times implies that this is Kim's first juried competition, it is far from that, as evidenced by previous articles on this blog. She has numerous awards from past shows. But Gasparilla is a biggie, and now doors will be opening for her everywhere! We are all so happy for her. The winning mixed media piece is shown here, titled "The Scarlet Letter."
