Juror's Statement: Reflections in art serve as a reminder that all art is a reflection of the artist's vision. They seem so magical when rendered by a skilled hand. The trick is observation: paint what you actually see, not how you think it should look. But if the artist surrenders a little of the objective eye to the subjective mind, some really wonderful things can happen, too! |
