I won the Illustration Award in Computer Arts magazine's Graduate Showcase!!!

A couple of months ago I entered my work into the Computer Arts competition for a chance to be featured in 2011's Graduate Showcase edition. I'd completely forgotten about it until yesterday when an old friend from my sixth form college messaged me on Facebook saying "Wow Amy your work is in my latest Computer Arts Magazine!!" Huh? My work? In Computer Arts? Woah..... so after getting myself a copy and being so excited to see how my illustrations look in print....

...I read that I'd actually WON the "Illustration Category Excellence Award" ...whaaat??! Here it is:

  7. Congratulations Amy, Really pleased for you.
    And to think, we weren't sure Computer Arts would go for your work due to lack of 'computer'.
    Be sure to keep me posted on any other good news.
