I got great news today (T.G.) my 'drawing' has been accepted for the RDS Student Art Awards Exhibition. The exhibition runs from 4th-12th August at the RDS. Some of the works in the exhibition will then travel to the Island Arts Centre, Lisburn, Northern Ireland from September 4 to October 7, and the Linehall Arts Centre, Castlebar, Co. Mayo from November 5-26. Due to space restrictions at these two venues, they will let me know in due course whether my work will be going to them.

Went in to invigilate yesterday; Mary Hickey and Jennifer Lynch came in to keep me company, fair play to them. There was a good few in to see the degree show on its final day. I got a phone call from Josie Geaney when I was nearly home; she was just going into the college to see the show, and was asking if I was there. Never mind. Sadness today; 4 years of college over; will miss seeing the lads and all the familiar faces around the college. Without a doubt, it has been the best four years of my life so far. Took some photos of my classmates work; said goodbye to the lads, and headed off home.

23/06/2010 Contd.
The degree show went well, it was a lovely day which made it all the better. A good crowd showed up for the occasion. Jennifer Lynch won the Limerick Arts Society medal; I was delighted for her. Mary Hickey won two awards also, Eoin McCormack won a painting prize, and Maurice Reidy got selected for an exhibition down in Cork. Fair play to them all. All that remains now is to do the invigilating on Friday, and then take our things home. Four years of art college over; it has been a wonderful experience, and I have met some really nice people, some of whom I would consider good friends now.
The tutors and staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. Still did not hear if I have been accepted for the M.A. programme. Did not get my results on line either; will wait until postman Pat (his real name) brings them. I have heard that my degree show work is to be reviewed in Circa magazine, so that is a good break to get.
Must mention also that I am PRO for the 'Art in the Making' group see: http://artinthemaking.weebly.com Also my work can be seen at http://richardjwilliams.wordpress.com Have also got a weebly, but don't expect to be using it at this stage anyway. Nevertheless, the address is: http://richardjwilliams.weebly.com Does this mean that I can now say Richard J. Williams artist now? or do I have to wait until I officially get my Hons Degree? hmmmmmm........food for thought!!! will write a few more words to this on Friday, but after that ...... I am not too sure; perhaps if I get accepted for the M.A. programme I may continue to use this. Then again, maybe it would be wise to continue to use this blog as it has quite a sizeable content now, and I have noticed that it has come up a few times when I have been looking for things; it has even got top of the page listing in some items, we'll see.
