My friend
Carolyn Summers awarded the
Arte y Pico "prize" to me today. =)

The rules are:
1. Pick 5 blogs that you consider deserve this award for their creativity, design, interesting material, and also contribute to the blogging community, no matter what language.
2. Each award has to have the name of the author and also a link to his/her blog to be visited by everyone.
3. Each award winner has to show the award and put the name and link to the blog that has given her/him the award itself.
4. The Award winner and the one who has given the prize have to show the link of "Arte Y Pico" blog, so everyone will know the origin of this award.
5. To show these rules.
(Note that I'm not a fan of making anybody do anything, so those blogs I pick are not obligated by me to do anything! *laugh*)
Well, most of my links are over there on the sidebar, but officially:
Brenda Marks has been one of my greatest mentors since I started getting back into art after my long digression into academia. I always end up hobbling behind her little by little. I still owe her a doggie, too. =)
I discovered
Gennine's blog through
Julie K. in Taiwan, so I guess that's two with one swell foop...
Two people whom I admire muchly for their art and their personal qualities come from the digiscrapping world:
Vinnie Pearce, and
Lynn Grieveson. They fit the bill perfectly!
