I have just been informed by Martha Sielman of SAQA that the piece I submitted for the silent auction SOLD!!  I am so pleased.  This is the first time I have donated to SAQA and I am a new member so was unsure that my work would meet the bar.  (I am sure I am not the first to feel this way)  so I thought I would share this news.  Once again, the message is put yourself out there, take a risk, you never know how things might work out.
