Roberto Blake Wins ILoveDesign.com Design of the Week

22 March 2010 No Comment

I woke up this Monday to find an email in my inbox telling me “you have won”. Now immediately I was set to delete this thinking it was spam until I realized that it had come from ILoveDesign.com needless to say that I was pleasantly surprised!

Some of you may remember this image was one that I gave away as a Free Wallpaper a while back.

I’ve been competing and submitting to various contest and gallery competitions heavily for the past year or so, and many times I’ve come close to winning, so to actually have an award under my belt is very encouraging, and for those of you in the same boat of having “never won anything” I would say based on this experience that you should certainly keep trying!

Oddly enough I had submitted this image quite a while back and it did gain some apparently popularity (a high number of views). It finally caught the eye of someone who thought it was “worthy” to win something!
