The Fall exhibit of the Buffalo Niagara Art Association was juried by Jody Ziehm and my pastel painting earned the Special Judson's Art Outfitters Award. Titled "Conflictions" it shows the crest of Niagara's Horseshoe Falls from the rapids.
In the Carnegie Art Center of North Tonawanda a plein air oil painting titled "Tuscan Morning" that I painted in Italy was awarded Third Prize by juror Alexa Wajed. She wrote 'This is a beautiful painting that reminds me of Italy I love how the brushstrokes obscure the lines and you, as the viewer, have to almost finish the piece. It easily feels like home, peace and comfort. The pop of color from the flowers calls out to you.'
I am so pleased that my work was chosen for these awards. With all the great paintings, drawings and sculpture in these shows I am excited to be exhibiting next to so many other wonderful artworks. Congratulations to all of us.
