Creative Competition #21 July 5, 2013
The persistant rains let up this past Friday to add a dash of heat, sun, and summer to our 21st creative competition! It has been said that poor weather creates culture, and so it is--for this month had record downpours and this month's competition had an equal share of creativity.
Congratulations to Abby Manock on taking first place for her large-scale, expressive, diptych titled, "Pre...Post." Brian Goblik's portrait, "Blake," took second place with its beautifully described lines and colors. Third place went to a creative bright and print-like painting by Brooke Monte, titled "Harmonic Interval.
Other highlights include a stone carved insect, in perfect salute for the cicada emergence, a beautifully intricate and abstract black-and-white charcoal drawing, a collaged painting of quirky swimmers with elegant linearly style drawn figures, a window screen turned dynamic and flowery hanging sculpture, and a pleasant surprise visit from the harmonica case man, with an ever-clever and ever-original hand-made harmonica case.
With another great competition behind us, we only look forward to the next!
