Judging an art show is always a challenge. There should be a certain amount of fairness in judging all styles even if the judge tends to be drawn to a certain one. This particular exhibit displayed a wide variety of styles from the abstract to the finely detailed, and even some that successfully combined both styles. What I sought first in the paintings was good design… a basic knowledge of placement and movement. Subject matter, color, emotion, and creativity are all the other elements that I feel are necessary to stand out in a competition with other artists.
Basically all of the paintings that I selected for awards exhibited qualities that made me want to look further into their process of painting.
With that said, you are all worthy painters possessing the enthusiasm to create. Thank you for the opportunity to see your creations.
