Congratulations to Joy Garnett
Joy Garnett, editor of the invaluable site NEWSgrist, leads multiple lives. In one of them, she's a successful painter.
I came to find out today (from a source other than NEWSgrist, I have to add) that Garnett was recently awarded a substantial and important artists' grant by Anonymous Was a Woman.

Join me in wishing Garnett congratulations on receiving this award. You'll be able to see her work, starting tomorrow, in what promises to be an interesting (and blogger-filled) group show at Clementine.Anonymous Was A Woman has announced the 10 artists selected to receive the Foundation’s ninth annual awards. The “no strings” grant of $25,000 enables women over 35, at a critical juncture in their lives or careers, to continue to grow, recover from traumatic life events, and pursue their work.
As the name implies, the nominators and those associated with the program are un-named, and artists are unaware that they are being considered for the award.
