"Dark Tunnel" 6x6 Contemporary Art show

This is a very important piece. My senior year art class had an assignment that was to create 3 6x6" pieces. Any medium; any theme. My teacher told us one of every three pieces would be submitted to the Rochester Contemporary Art Center's annual 6x6 art show. I was excited that one of my pieces had the opportunity to be in a actual art show! The inspiration of my piece came from a dream I had. I was walking down a dark tunnel and found the light at the end. I don't know if it was sign, but oh well, it was probably for my art project. This project was done in water color and water color pencil.
Later my teacher announced to my class that she was wrong. When she brought all of our pieces (50 total) the instructor of the art show could only selected 5 pieces out of the 50. Mine was one of the five the instructor picked. I was so grateful. At this art show each of the thousands of pieces there were auctioned off for 20$ each as a donation to the art show's center. My piece sold! I don't know who bought my piece, but I am so grateful that somewhere out there, someone has my piece, whether it's hanging on their wall, in their office, or whatever, someone liked my piece enough to buy it. I am so happy and thrilled I was able to take part in this art show. http://roco6x6.org/6x6x2013.php?artwork_id=3655&fb_action_ids=611917912152069&fb_action_types=og.likes&fb_source=aggregation&fb_aggregation_id=288381481237582 (This will take you to my piece).
