Captain King Midas was spiffed up after Highball 2022 & submitted into the World of WearableArt application process in March 2023! In July I was notified that he made the stage show & I quickly clamored together a gofundme to raise money to go see my piece on the global stage in Wellington, New Zealand.
While he was not selected by the judges for any of the awards, Captain King Midas WAS selected for a 2 page spread in the collectable program introducing the Gold Section. I am BEYOND (The title of 2023’s show) honored to have my piece onstage with so many other beautiful works of art & I look forward to entering and hopefully participating again in the future! I definitely found more people to add to my creative family. The whole experience has revitalized this maker’s soul.
