if I can make it there

Yesterday I got a call from New York - which I didn't know at that point but it sure didn't look Dutch to me - but surrounded by a bunch of freshly released toddlers I thought it wise to let my voicemail do its job. So straight after escaping the schoolyard I played the message of a very friendly and enthusiastic lady congratulating me with being admitted to this year's Annual Exhibition of the Society of Illustrators in New York (there you have it, indeed). I'm thrilled!! And if I can make it there..
This is the piece that was selected, Megaliths, it belongs to a series of drawings I made for newspaper de Volkskrant about Dutch attractions.
