It’s been about seven years that I’ve been doing shows now. To say I have learned a lot already is certainly an understatement. However, I have been doing little local shows. I have been working hard on my “cohesive body of work” and my display. I knew I had to get in to some higher caliber shows, so this year I applied for four shows that I thought were a step up from what I had been doing... I am still too intimidated to apply for the really good shows, but if I am ever going to succeed I need to get to that level. I think the Zapplication conference could be very helpful in making that step up to the next level. However, I don’t see that it will be in my budget in the foreseeable future. I would love to participate in the public portfolio critique! If I’m not chosen, I will still be plodding along and you will probably hear from me again next year.
So there you have it folks -- great choices from beginners to seasoned artists. You will only be allowed to vote once. Deadline for voting September 2, midnight ET.
Here are the comments of the people who have entered to win the pass to the Zapp Conference in the order received. After you have read them all the poll is at the end to receive your votes.

It's been a grueling three weeks, having entered this popularity contest for votes in order to win a $5000 grant. It has consumed me! The contest is called Dream Big Grow Here, and its purpose is to encourage small businesses in Northeast Iowa (there are other contests in other parts of Iowa) to expand and promote their idea or "dream". My dream, which I have had and been working on for 6 years, is to extend the designs that I've been developing on my pottery into other, manufactured products, like textiles. It's been slow going because of time and money shortages. This grant could give me a jump start.
I am now in second place, behind a garden center, and quite a bit behind too. But I have a lot of support and I believe this last day will bring people out of the woodwork.The voting ends at midnight tonight.
If you could please take a moment out of your busy day and help me towards this goal, I would be so grateful!
Let me also add that I have started a raffle for one of my teacups that you can win if you let me know that you voted. You can add a comment here ("voted" is enough), or on my Facebook page which you can reach if you click on the Facebook icon on my contest entry.
