3x3 ProShow Winners Announced

I’ve never been prouder than looking at the results of this year’s show. What a selection of outstanding work from all over the world. Our Best of Show winner is from the United Kingdom. Of the seven gold medals, five came from outside the United States. Of our seven Silver medals, six are from overseas and a little more than half our Bronze medals were from outside the United States. My dream has always been to be the only true international show for illustration. While we’re based in the US our shows receive entries from all over the world, we don’t claim to be an American show, our claim is to be an international show. This year proves it.

As always our judges had a difficult time selecting all our winners. In a lot of cases, as in the past, many entries were just one vote shy of getting into the show. With the addition of several new categories and the quality of entries, we have more than double the number of accepted entries making this our largest show ever. For a complete list of all the winners go online to our web site.

Congratulations to all our winners!
