I am very excited to report that Andrea Offermann won the SCBWI New York conference Portfolio Showcase Grand Prize! She will be flown back to NYC to meet with art directors sometime later this year. This year's showcase had over 300 portfolios - more than ever before! Congratulations Andrea!! You can see Andrea's wonderful work
