While I would continue to glaze pieces for the shear joy of it, I admit it does feel pretty darn good when a piece you've put your heart into does well in either the model horse world showrings or at juried art shows. The Donna Chaney AA Striking Out Arabian that I custom glazed took home a division championship, a Southwestern overall championship and a Best of Show, all in the professional category! My husband was with me when they announced the awards, which made it very special. I am so thrilled, as this was a juried show, judged by fellow artists, some of which are masters in the fired arts.
