Winner, Winner...

...no Chicken Dinner, here.  LOADS o' art will be winding its way to OUR lucky Winners, though!  Read on for the scoop on the Grand Finale of the Great ReMe Blog Hop.

First off, we would like to thank EVERY one who joined us on this virtual adventure by visiting our blogs and sharing their kind words and stories!  This is one case where it is not an exaggeration to say that we couldn't have done this without you.  Many have told us that they appreciated getting to know new artists throughout this month of sharing.  To that, I'd say:  "Mission Accomplished!"  A large part of being an artist is finding an audience for the work that drives you to create.  We are just as thrilled to have found new fans!

Using the random number generator at RANDOM.ORG, we have selected the winners of the individuals works at each of our blogs and the Grand Prize Winner here at ReMe.  Without further ado, I give you our Winners!
 
First up, over at Jean Skipper Originals, the Winner of this one of a kind Reach pendant/necklace created by Jean is:  Lynn!

  I love your theme of "Reach". That is what I have done been doing. Went to my first art retreat in the summer of 2011 after having lost my husband in 2010. I was reaching for light and happiness and maybe even a distraction. I met Jodi later that same year at AIY in Stamford, and I've been a fan ever since. Now I'm looking forward to meeting you & Penny, too!



Over at Sweet Repeats, the Winner of Jodi's limited edition print entitled Sunset Beach is:  Giggles!

Beautiful work so full of whimsy and color....my favorite!

I am going to write and create....

Hugs Giggles





Over at Thoughts Askance, the Winner of the UH*Os, upcycled Journal by Penny is:  Maureen Hayes!


I have actually learned a lot already from the posts about how to nourish my creative soul, but I was really touched by the post that Jean wrote for this part of the hop on reaching out to others. I think the world would be a better place if we all took the time to do this more often! Thanks for some wonderful food for thought and for giving me the dream of attending on of the retreats some day!


Finally, here at the ReMe blog, the Grand Prize Winner is:  Jenny Redmond!  Jenny writes:  :I've been a fan of Jodi's for awhile so the blog hop has introduced me to some NEW artists! I love Pinterest and always go there for art inspiration. Oh, how I wish I could attend the ReMe but I'm a little too far away."  She will receive our Trio of Artful Goodness:  Rest-Relax-Renew stamped copper necklace from Jean, Let the Sun Shine original painting on canvas from Jodi, and Yesteryear canvas covered Journal from yours truly (Penny)!  Congratulations, Jenny!  Please send your mailing address to us at:  reme@remeretreats.com and we will package up your treasures and get them out to you Post Haste!
