The Lord concedes to the prayers of His devotees and appears as tree or stone and Salagramam is an example. There lived a sage Sarangayana. He was meditating on the Lord. The Lord appeared before him and asked what the sage wanted. Normally, many meditate on Indra, Kubera, etc., and seek boons and so the Lord wanted to know, why the sage meditated on Him. The sage prayed that the Lord should always be there and nothing else he needed. When the Lord wanted to know how He should be present, the sage, looking at the surrounding hills and trees, said that the Lord should remain stable like the hills and trees! Immediately, the Lord appeared as Sala Vruksham. Then after very long time, the tree got multiplied and all those trees after very long periods, became fossils and are seen as Salagrama. Thus as per the wishes of the sage, the Lord was a tree and later became a stone! In Science also we have studied that plants under great pressure over long period, are converted into fossils. This boon for the sage was combined with riverr Gantaki's prayers! But discovering them and selecting them from the extreme cold water is difficult. But we can request the locals and they would get us Salagrama stones. There are many types of Salagrama like, Purushottama, Lakshmi Narayana, Thousand radii Sudarsana, Lakshmi Narasimha, Varaha, Matsya Murty, etc. On another occasion we will see various types. Today's [30th July] 2009] is from the temple of Sri Muktinath.
The Lord inside the temple, is not of Salagrama form. Only the stones found in the river are Salagrama stones. We may get a doubt as to how we could worship fossils? But the Lord decides that He would be available in some forms and we have to obey His orders. The Lord has ordained that He could be reached by certain methods. As a first step the Lord revealed that He could be worshiped in places like Muktinath, Badarikashram, Tiruppiridi, etc. These are difficult to access and worshiping in temples daily may also be difficult. So, the Lord descends another step and is available in Salagrama stones, which could be worshiped in houses. Thus in Dwaraka and in Gantaki, we obtain Two different types of 'sila' or stones. Where both are worshiped there, one gets the result of Ganga or performing 1000 Aswameda yagna! The Lord has laid certain rules and regulations in Vedas and in Puranas. That way, in Padma Purana [पादम पुराण] or in Varaha Purana, the glory and greatness of Salagrama are mentioned. We should not consider them as mere stones but, as revealed by the Lord, He is present in them. Therefore, by worshiping Salagrama, we will have Bhagavat Prapti or His blessings. Around this temple, Gantaki river flows out through 108 gomukh [mouth of cows].
pilgrims bathe in all of them, by first entering the First Gomukh water drain and running through all and completing 108 baths! Those, who can not brave this chill water, may sprinkle the water on their heads. We will wait to see inside of the temple. Now, we will see sloka 6 of Chapter 18. We saw that if we believed His words that He was existing in Salagrama, and perform poojas, He is delighted and blesses us. This sloka is very much connected with this. The Lord is going to say in this sloka that by Upasana one could get Mukti. There are many Vidyas like Sad vidya, Guhara vidya, Sandilya vidya, Bhouma vidya, etc. These are all different types of Bhakti or devotion. When one is in Upasana or in Gyana yoga, why karmas have to be performed? Is not performing Pitru Tarpanam [rites for deceased parents and ancestors], a very inferior karma? Is it necessary to perform Sandyavandanam and Pancha Maha yagna? The Lord refutes any such thinking and has been telling Arjuna, that performing those karmas was necessary. In continuation, we can see sloka 6:
etāny api tu karmāṇi saṅgaṃ tyaktvā phalāni ca
kartavyānīti me pārtha niścitaṃ matam uttamam 18.6
Me matam = My [Sri Krishna's] belief. The Lord emphatically says something is His belief and so there should be no dissenting voice on that. It is the final word. This belief is, niscitam = decisive and uttamam = the best. Arjuna needs nothing else to follow, as it is Sri Krishna's belief. The Lord is never disillusioned or careless or does not need to divert anyone. Therefore, following Him should be 100% and without any reservation! This is His final verdict. He calls it the best and one should not have doubts about any inferiority to perform karmas. Eta = these, karmani api tu= karmas also even, sangam = attachment, phalani = results, tyaktva = to be discarded. We should do karma without any attachment and with no desires. Detachment means discarding the feeling that we were doing the karma [mamata tyagam]. Karmani means all karmas like nitya and naimittika yagna, tapas, danam, etc. Kartavya = doing such karma is prescribed in shastras. Iti = such of these, karmas are to be performed and this is His belief and decision! Thus, even those desirous of Moksham, have to perform all Nitya, Naimittika and, detached and desireless of results, Kamya karmas! By adding the word 'api', the Lord says that while Upasana is the means to Moksham, karmas also have to be performed and can not be discarded. Some are of the view that Upasana alone has to be performed. This is categorically refuted by Sri Krishna and says that to start and continue Upasana, karmas like yagna, tapas, danam, etc., have to be performed to remove all obstacles in the way to reach Him. Why karmas? Is not Uapasana alone sufficient? Arjuna raised his eye brows in doubt! The Lord asks Him as to why anyone did Upasana or Bhakti. It is for His pleasure. Then, the same Lord says that He is pleased if one performed karma prescribed to his Varana and Ashrama. Worshiping the Lord in Muktinath is as rewarding as worshiping Salagrama in our house!

TGIF yall!
Now that the Friday Five Linkup (aka my favorite blogging day) is no longer a thing, I decided the best thing to do is to just keeping writing similar posts. Creative right? But it's Friday so that is what I am working with.
Anyways, no themes for these, I just want to share 5 things I am living each week! Ready?
1) The Hamilton Mixtap
I am a #HamilRun fan any time and all the time….but The Hamilton Mixtape just happened and I am losing my mind. So currently there are two songs available on Apple Music and you can preorder the whole album. The best estimate I found for a release day is December 2. Which is conveniently before the BCS Marathon so I will for sure for sure be HamilRunning that one 😉 And I am just going to leave the song list here
2) The Month of BUFF
Have you been following along on Instagram? All month the BibRavePro crew will be sharing how we rock our BUFF headwear.
3) Muffins!
Specifically the Apple Oat Greek Yogurt Muffins recipe from Running With Spoons. If you need a healthy breakfast/snack it is very much worth checking out. I am going to be playing around tweaking this recipe with other flavors!
4) Chestnut Praline Lattes are back
I am not a huge PSL fan. I love pumpkin but usually in a less sugary form (unless we are talking about pumpkin cheesecake, then I am all in). But the Chestnut Praline Latte is my jam. It's back and I am in paradise.
5) Fall!
Yesterday the high temperature was about 75 I think and today it is 78. How great is that? This is pretty much my favorite weather. Yes I know this isn't "fall" to most of the world, but it's Southern Fall and it is why I moved south and stayed!

I am really excited this week with the amature contest I Heart Faces. I got my Nikon camera for Christmas and it takes good photos but I'm not too impressed with my work. I need to learn so much more about the camera. This was taken a few weeks ago in our living room just before my daughters school program. She is beautiful, but I still think my camera skills could use some work.
You can see more I Heart Faces amature entries HERE.

This is a good question, and it often comes up when I do a Feng Shui Audit. Well, the answer is no, but the placement of the Clocks is important. I found this video that is interesting and simple to understand. Do check it out!

I started doing the Tarot since 1986, bought my first deck in Australia; since then it has become such a passion that in 2001 I started doing professional readings. At public events; like bazaars and shopping fairs I used to be such a novelty; I remember one time this child asked her daddy what was I doing, his reply was " she thinks she is a Chinese gypsy!" Not that it made any sense to the 5 year old child but I thought it was an interesting remark.
Throughout the past 12 years, there have been many requests for me to teach Tarot Workshops, somehow I didn't get the calling to do so until this year. In September 2013, I ran my very first Intuitive Tarot Workshop at the Reiki Centre in Joo Chiat. I had 5 participants, 4 ladies and 1 gentleman. It was an intense yet fun afternoon enjoy by all.
On 30th November 2013, I ran my second Intuitive Tarot Workshop at Basic Essence located at Cluny Court; again I have 5 participants; 4 ladies and 1 gentleman.
My very first set of Tarot Deck is the Mythic Tarot by Juliet Sharman-Burke and Liz Greene.
At the end of the workshop, we had a group picture taken:
At the end of the workshop, each of them went home with a certificate of participation!
I am looking forward to running my next workshop in February 2014!
Stay tune!

This is yet another good month for you. You are in the position to be of envy as you seem to have the Midas touch at the moment. However, you must watch your attitude at work and try to improve your interpersonal relationships. Money energy is average but you will managed, with your luck and determination, all will be well.
This is a month of changes where everything will seem unclear, causing you to become indecisive. There will be a situation that will challenge you to change or kick an old habit. As old habits die hard, you must try to keep the determination to change even if it feels like very little is achieved. Relationships with loved ones will go through a sensitive time; conflicts are indicated.
Energy fluctuates more drastically this month. You will feel restless and easily irritated but it is the perfect time for personal contemplations. Give yourself a few quiet and restful days to help you balance your energy. Money energy is fair. Work will go through a stressful time. For personal safety, moderate sports activities this month.
The energy of this month will be rather sluggish: events and plans will take a much longer time to unfold. For your own transformation, you will need to go through a quiet but watchful period. Find ways to feel more secure this month. Stay optimistic and keep your vision on what you wish to achieve. Avoid all money risks.
This is the clashing month for your zodiac and that can be uncomfortable for many Dragons. Zodiacs that are clashing should always look after their personal well-being and safety. Work will be stressful and you will be more impatient, but do try to avoid confrontations. An increase in responsibilities is likely but, on the flip side, some will see job promotion.
This is a humpty-dumpty month where events will twist and turn, so it is best to be flexible and not get too absorbed in the process. There is inner work to be done that will benefit you. If you have been waiting for things to happen in your career, it is time to realise that you must first make firm intentions and set your visions. New projects and signing of contracts should be delayed to a better time. Gather more information to help you improve your lifestyle.
This is a mixed energy month in general but it may be one of your best months so far. At work or business, your hard work has come to fruition. Things are finally working in your favour. Wealth or money is positive this month. Use this time to focus on how you wish life would be. Create a vision for your goals and be firm about them. Joyous occasions are indicated.
This month's energy is draining. Keep your personal health optimal and keep yourself happy by doing what you love. Mid-month, you must stay determined to fine ways to be in focus and balance. B assured that you will find the support you need at this time. Money energy is fair. You will see some positive changes later in the month.
A busy month is indicated. You may feel a little unsettled this month as energy seems to move in circles. Do not try to understand it, but watch the momentum, as it will come to a point where energy will suddenly pick up and turn events around for you. Keep a positive outlook at work and be open to new suggestions.
This is probably one of the most difficult months for you. Energy is not flowing in your favour. Work or business may not be giving you the results that you wish right now but, if you can wait it out, it will even out later. Be careful that you do not allow yourself to be talked into something that you will regret later.
This month's energy is clashing with the annual ruling zodiac and it can be turbulent. Some of you will be more affected by the energy than others. For your own personal safety, avoid adventure type trips or risky sports. Work place can be chaotic. However,a good money deal or venture are indicated
If you have been looking forward to a quiet month, this is just not going to be one of them. Work and social life will keep you busy. Something in your environment is upsetting you, perhaps it is time to call in your renovator and do some home improvement. At work, steer clear of any conflicts and power play.

It is probably most difficult for the father to let go of his daughter, most especially because fathers treat their daughters like princesses. But when the "marrying-age" comes, the father becomes so meticulous in picking the future husband to her precious daughter. This is why most fathers, themselves, place the profiles of their daughter with the characteristic of the husband-to-be.
One problem that may arise in this situation is that if the daughter has no idea of what the father is up to. The daughter will just be surprised to have emails regarding her future Shaadi plans. This can cause a gap between the daughter and the father. But after everything works out, and his daughter is getting married, don't just let her go. Remember that every daughter looks up to their fathers – as a hero, for motivation and for protection.
Here are 5 important fatherly advices that you must include during your one-on-one talk:
1. Always listen to your heart.
As a father, you know that after the Shaadi, there will be a lot of changes. But this does not mean that she needs to forget herself along the way. Your daughter needs to listen and follow her heart, even if others disagree with her decision. This is because at the end of the day, it is she who will deal with the situation, and not the other people. And always remind her, that you are always there for her.
2. Respect starts if you have respect for yourself.
As you have valued and respected your daughter, make sure that she will never lose that respect for herself. Tell her that after the Shaadi, she still needs to keep her individuality and take care of herself. If she shows the right respect for herself, she will also reflect that respect to others and to her new family.
3. Value your new family as your own.
Don't forget to tell your daughter about her in-laws, they will be there to continuously monitor her activities, because they also want the best wife for their son. And valuing her in-laws starts from planning the Shaadi to for life. But also remind her that when times are difficult, she can always go back to her original family for help and support.
4. Face situations, adapt, learn, and grow.
Beginning a new life is not very easy, that is why your daughter needs to realize that every situation has their own challenges. And your daughter needs to face them. And tell her that she is not alone, because she can always call for guidance from you or her mother. Give her some experiences from your own Shaadi and starting a family. And always remind her that those situations are rooms for her to learn and adapt new skills. In the end she will surely grow as a better individual – a wife and a mother.
5. Your husband has his own individuality, accept it.
Tell your daughter that her husband has his own thinking that he needs to have his own space too. Make sure that your daughter will not become possessive of the husband. Tell her that they have to set certain boundaries to still enjoy their personal lives as well as their family life.

You insist to go outside today. Such a sunny day, you say, would be a sin to stay at the room. The nurse say no until they call your doctor. After hesitating first, the doctor finally allows you. Who would say no to a wish of last stage cancer survivor?
I push you outside. Yes, it's a nice day. The warmth of the summer finally kick your body. And you smile.
There are two children laughing besides their mothers. One with a tube in her nose and one with a wheelchair. I sit next to you in the park. Stay silent just watching the kids play.
After a while you finally say, "when i die.."
"If", i interrupt you.
You laugh and continue. "If i die, would you be sad?", you ask.
Sad? Miserable! I answer.
You nod. You then tell me that it's okay to be miserable a week or two. Then you want me to promise afterward, I will move on.
I nod. Just to end the conversation. How you're still thinking about me when you die later hurts me. You still have not change even when you're dying. I know you do. And I know it's about time. So I hold your hand tight. Tighter than I should. And you hold me back weakly. We stay like that for what seems like forever.
And slowly you release me.
And just like that, I know you're already gone.

Being poet-y in my new blazer. (I don't consider myself a "blazer person," whatever that means, but this one is super soft.)
Change purse: $10, Housing Works.
I think the most upsetting part about the whole Rebecca Black thing for me was the interview she did on Good Morning America and the way Diane Sawyer treated her. She's thirteen years old. Diane Sawyer told her people were calling her the worst singer ever and then read her the meanest comments from YouTube. I really don't understand that kind of behavior from what is supposed to be professional media. Maybe it's because I feel very protective towards all girls ages 7-16 (mess with my girls and I will fuck you up), but I was indescribably angry after seeing the interview. Yes, the song is terrible. But to put her on national television and humiliate her? Why is that necessary? I really do not understand.ReplyDelete
I love the picture of you surrounded by the books - gorgeous and whimsical! And also your room looks lovely and cozy. I think the Excelsior, with the horse head, is the same place that makes the port we had while you were here. Deliciousness all around :)ReplyDelete
Nina -- Yes, exactly. I hadn't considered that my reaction might be because of camp, but I guess to a certain extent, camp is so ingrained in me that it's part of my reaction to everything. It seems like R. Black has a good head on her shoulders -- grounded, grateful kid who even wants to donate a lot of the money to charity. I hope her parents are proud of how she's handling this. ...and that, friend, was the oldest I have ever sounded. #kidsgetoffmylawn
Peters -- You're so right about the port! I'd forgotten, but the familiarity of the logo must have been part of the reason why I was inexplicably drawn to this particular bottle. I'll let you know how it is! (...or you could come to New York again and we could have wine, and you could show me how to make steak the way you did. Just saying.)

There was a lot going on in the world of bitcoin and technology this past week. There are a few that could potentially affect your business. If you missed them, below are some of the top business happenings from the past week to catch you up.
Bitcoin News
This past week, bitcoin was jolted because of regulation worries. Because of this, the bitcoin value dropped down by eleven-percent through the extended sell-off. Bitcoin currency is now below the $10,000 mark. This is already less than half of what it was at during its peak. Investors are becoming worried that regulators are going to clamp down on this already volatile cryptocurrency. This is important to know for businesses because digital currencies are the future, especially if you run a smaller business and cannot afford the high fees associated with accepting debit and credit card transactions from your customer base.
2018 CES In Las Vegas
The Consumer Electronics Show which was held in Las Vegas was a good turn out. It featured a lot of trending services and products that can have a huge impact on smaller businesses around the country. Some of the top featured items included convertible laptops and tablets with better functionality and AI software for tech solutions and smarter processes. Many of these items can be worth looking into if you own a business.
Almost 40 Millions Americans Own Smart Speakers That Are Voice Activated
New research has found that almost one out of every six people in the United States has a smart speaker that is voice activated. The research has reported that it is possible that this amount of owners is going to eventually outpace the use of regular smartphones and tablets. For businesses, voice-activated smart speakers can allow workers to perform a variety of tasks such as to make calls, change the room temperature and alert customers using simple voice commands.
Easier Ordering From Restaurants Online
Alex Canter is the founder of Ordermark. It is a company which provides ordering management online for his own family restaurant and others. The service streams all orders made online to a single device in a particular restaurant's kitchen. This can help a business optimize their ability to accept online orders and increase their sales revenue. It can be implemented into a business quickly and easily with little hassle in integration. It is also great because there are no set-up costs required to get it started.

At different times in my life I've heard people talk about the importance of guarding their heart, regardless of the type of relationship. A guarded heart protects us against those who, intentionally or innocently, cause us pain because we have decided to share our passions, hopes, regrets, and dreams. In order to protect ourselves from the possibility of pain, our heart remains guarded.
While this piece of advice, to guard our heart, will certainly help us to feel less pain, it isolates us from those around us. To guard our heart we must close the possibility of being rejected by those we know and don't know very well. We become closed to the possibility of living a life of openness and honesty, a life in which our pain can be transparently viewed and vulnerably prodded. We close ourselves off to the possibility of releasing life through our own. And we do this for what?
We could talk about the ways that our culture prods us to become the best which, often, means doing whatever we need to do to get to the top of the proverbial ladder. We could talk about how we have been trained to resist intimacy with people we hardly know, keeping them at a distance until we are able to trust them with the things that define us. Self-preservation seems to be our goal, trying to keep others far enough away to ensure that when, not if, they hurt us and leave, we won't feel betrayed or abandoned. Our desire to avoid betrayal or abandonment keeps us at a distance and we think this is the only way to get through life unscathed, at least this is the story we tell ourselves.
When others hurt us, it's easy to slip into a pattern of self-preservation. It's easier to avoid the pain than to take the path of intimacy once again. Self-presevation is a form of self-focus that we often rationalize as good for our emotional health. But, to release life in others, we need to share the part of ourselves that matters most. The part so personal, so intense, so beautifully complicated, that we take a risk.
I've never heard anyone talk about guarding their heart as a self-centered action used to keep others at a distance for the selfish purpose of avoiding personal pain. But I think that's precisely what it is. We don't allow ourselves to be open to the reality that my passions, my fears, my story could release life in others. To tell others what I care most about opens me up to the possibility of rejection and, as we all know, rejection hurts. Yet, the damage that's caused is the kind of damage that focuses me inward and paralyzes my actions. If I don't want to be rejected or abandoned, I keep others at a distance until it becomes obvious that they won't reject me. Maybe they have similar intersts, passions, or hurts, or maybe you feel like they can understand where you are coming from. Regardless of your reasons, you feel comfortable sharing the part of you that defines who you hope to become. We live our lives in fear and that fear paralyzes us from releasing life in those around us to become the best possible version of themselves.
I've often heard people talk about rejection and abandonment in terms of "giving pieces of my heart" to someone else. As if to say that I only have a limited number of pieces to give and, with each fleeting piece, my heart has less life and less hope than I had before. But the beauty of the body of Christ and the work of the Spirit in each of us is that the pieces of our heart are continually replenished. Our heart is renewed and filled with the love of our community and our Father. We are replenished, allowing us not to focus on our desire for self-preservation but on our desire to release life in others. To encourage the person in front of our face with the things we care most about.
You've read about my life on this blog. And if you've been hurt by the actions of others or your own stupid choices there's one thing I would encourage you to do: pour your life into others. You don't need to wait until you're fixed. You don't need to wait until you can trust again. Just leap. Pour your life into others because when you leave self-preseravation behind, you'll find a different, better world full of hope, possibility, and healing.

text: As an artist one of my favourite things is seeing how you react to my work and getting your feedback. I just love the combination of originals this client chose! As the paintings are from different series it hadn't occurred to me to put them together but they compliment each other so well! Barcelona and Granada – two beautiful cities, each special in its own way. The originals have gone but prints of these paintings are for sale in my Etsy shop. I offer free worldwide shipping on all prints. Take a peek at my collection of illustrations of Spain, Italy, France and the UK.

Ok, so I had a different blog to post today but after this evenings events I had to get this off my chest.
Oh my god!! So I had an interview this evening at 7:00pm (yes odd time I know). So I took off from my nanny job early so that I could give myself plenty of time to find the place and get lost, since I am the queen of getting myself totally and completely lost, I now plan for these things. So after 45 minutes of traffic I found the place with 10 minutes to spare!! I go to the door and…… wait why is the door locked?? So I knock, then call the number…. no answer, to the door or phone. I look around, all but two cars in the parking lot, its dark, I have no idea where I am really. So I call again, no answer. I call again then finally an answer, its the receptionist that had her calls forwarded to her cell phone. She seems surprised that I am calling and saying I have an interview. She kind of fumbles a bit and then says "umm let me call …. (still not sure of the womans name) and I'll call your right back" So I say ok hesitantly. She calls me back and says "she had an emergency and completely forgot in the midst of it all, she apologizes and will call you tomorrow to reschedule, and I apologize for her as well" I'm thinking yea…. ok thanks, so I missed 3 hours of work where I could have been getting paid which i really need to drive all the way out here for nothing?? do i really wanna play this game again???
So I drive home…. and on the way I see these two signs
Ok so not those exact signs since I didn't take a picture (dangerous!) but still one said alexandria the other said baltimore/richmond. I actually had a split moment where I thought to myself… "why can't i just take off towards new york and just go!" Oh how close I was to doing it, but then remembered that I have my baby at home (daisy) and I'm way too much of a planner to ever just take off. I'd need clothes, daisy, toiletries, pillow, blankets etc….
But I am so unbelievably TIRED of this whole run around of endless job hunting and getting NOTHING! I mean seriously, I had a thought today, and honestly I have been looking for a job constantly for the past 3 1/2 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Granted the past few months have been more of a serious look since I now have my degree. But still, to have to constantly drag myself out of bed and try to pep myself up each and every day to stay positive is beyond exhausting. Not only exhausting but it is doing a serious number on my esteem and mind/body. The amount of stress that has been building on me is beginning to really take a toll. I have had a non stop headache for the past week, my left shoulder and side of my neck has been cramped up which also is giving me headaches. The bags under my eyes are getting darker and darker, my hair is falling out in clumps, and I am now having daily breakdowns. Like, the kind of breakdowns where I am literally on the floor bawling my eyes out and its like pulling teeth to get myself dressed and get out the door.
Yes this is not the most uplifting post, but its honest and truthful and I want to show people out there who may possibly be reading this post that no, life is not all sunshine and roses 100% of the time. I get so annoyed when I read blogs where people sound so upbeat and cheery and happy ALL the time!!! I mean thats great for them but it starts making me feel like "why can't my life be like that?" I guess thats also just that side of me that always has to compare myself to others…. I'm workin on that one, but it takes time.
Anyway, so that was my lovely evening…. I've got my $4 wine from trader joes and it's pretty darn good!! gotta love TJ's 🙂
Tomorrow I plan to get up, drive over to Roosevelt Island and go for a nice run around the island and then down the Mt. Vernon Trail which has a gorgeous view of the DC skyline and river.

Australian cartoonists recognized at the 2016 Stanley Awards
Artists from around the country gathered over the weekend in Sydney to celebrate the Stanley Awards. Run by the Australian Cartoonists' Association, the awards recognise the best works in categories like comic strips, single gags, political cartoons and caricatures. Cartoon above is from Glen Le Lievre's finalist entry for the 2016 Walkley Awards. Walkley Award winners will be announced Dec. 2.
The ACA is the world's oldest cartooning organisation, and the Stanleys celebrate the craft's rich history as well as its talented present. For what can be a solitary profession, the awards and conference are a welcome opportunity to connect with colleagues from around the country.
There aren't many other awards nights where you're given blank sheets of paper and pens along with the menu — a hotly contested "on the night" cartoon competition, with the theme "Trumped", was won by Rod Emmerson. The Walkley delegation was artistically challenged but honoured with unsolicited caricatures.
Glen Le Lievre was named Cartoonist of the Year. His work appears in The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, The Sun Herald, and Crikey. He also took out the award for Editorial/Political Cartoonist. A great result for one of our Walkley cartoon finalists for this year.
Anton Emdin, who spoke at Storyology about life as a freelancer, received the Illustrator award.
Here are the 2016 Stanley Award winners:
