I also entered "Key West Pier" and "A Day Night Anomaly", both of which were somewhat favorites of mine. I love Key West (the place) and the pier in particular was a favorite spot of mine with plenty of color, shadows and lines.
The "Day Night Anomaly" was one of a series of experiments I painted of scenes which generated some thought. They included a juxtaposition of day and night, winter and summer, color and lack of color, urban and non-urban.
The show had 123 entries and some really good ones. There were three judges this time who had to reach a consensus on the various entries. It's got to be a tough, although fun and interesting assignment.
I was lucky enough to win two prizes:
BEST OVERALL - "Day Night Anomaly"
(See this painting being created in time-lapse with my video entry below of January 21, 2013)
Second Prize Acrylic - "Cobble Hill Night" I'm happy to see the judges appreciated the creativity in the 'Day Night Anomaly' painting. I left the paintings that won at the Art Association as they will be exhibited there during November. I wasn't able to sell anything (I don't think anyone did). but perhaps I may be lucky enough to at the exhibit in November.
This was BEST IN SHOW.....
