>"yes, my 3 grandchildren submit pieces for the children's gallery. 2 have won prizes but my 3rd hasn't won any. He loves to draw anime unlike the others but feels bad that he hasn't gotten anything for it. I wanted to show him that even adults are submitting anime"

I didn't expect much outside of gaining some experience, but everybody was so nice and I even got invited to come back. But that last lady I talked to was just too sweet and I'm even more excited to get back to painting for the next one. I'm simply touched that my art actually did something for someone else.
