Dear Runners-Up,
It is a mark of high achievement to attain runner-up status in our Strokes of Genius competition. We receive many more excellent drawings than is possible to fit into a book and your artwork was seriously considered for that honor. The final cut is based on a number of factors and, by necessity, requires that we cut pieces that could easily be prize winners in many venues.
I hope this is an encouragement to you. Keep on drawing and painting. And thank you so much for your interest in our publications at North Light Books. We could never do them without you!
Best wishes,
Rachel Rubin Wolf
