UPDATE: I'm repurposing this post for the Illustration Friday topic: Prehistoric.And now, back to your regular scheduled blog post.
This weekend I attended the NESCBWI conference and entered their poster showcase competition. Posters needed to reflect the conference theme: "Moments of Change."
I was thrilled and honored to win both the Best in Show and the People's Choice awards. Thanks to everyone who voted for my poster!
I'm embarrassed to confess I wasn't in the room to accept the award. I lost track of time and didn't realize the contest results were being announced. I was mortified when I realized my mistake.
Sigh.
In any case, it was a great conference! I met a lot of awesome people and I learned a lot. Like maybe I should buy a watch.

A lovely poster and a fantastic idea! How funny. Congrats on the win!
Very fun and clever poster. Love the little bug bookin' it outta there. Congrats, Robert!
Nice going! I'm a little confused though, I thought only dogs and ponies could win, "Best In Show." I hope someone slapped you on the wrist where your watch should have been for being MIA during the awards ceremony. Just sayin'.
Awesome piece Robert, I can see why it won. Smart, humorous, and charming. I am so sorry you missed your moment to shine, we'll just have to send our praise via the internets. Also, I'm impressed that you still like dinosaurs after painting so many last year!
Gina, I'm sorry I missed my moment to shine!
Great idea and well executed!! Congratulations!!!
Glad I got to finally see the winning poster.
Congratulations Robert! (you can still bask in the glow of victory whether or not you were there to hear them announce it or not!) I love the bug who gets what's happening after the light show!
Really great! :)
This is very cleverly done and I love the light reflection on the dinosaur and now knowing how those pesky cockroaches survived :-)
Congratulations
Excellent!!!
