NEW inward 2011 The Art Innovation of the Year Award

This is a NEW AWARD inward 2011.  Now that I've created it I actually can't yell back why I haven't done so before!

However it was upwards against a rattling worthy in addition to as pop opponent - in addition to was conceived yesteryear an as pop in addition to accomplished artist!

Hence the inaugural of all accolade volition last shared between:

I can't start without mentioning all the artists who direct maintain had to start over again from scratch after losing their homes in addition to studios.
