It might be Spring here in the North East, but that didn’t stop us from enjoying the splendor of Fall in our "Fall-ing Into Art II" contest! Splendor doesn’t begin to describe the amazing and abundant entries we received! As always, we were overwhelmed by the abundance of talent and creativity of the artists! Congratulations and thanks to all our winners and entrants.
We are also extremely grateful to the talented Cathy Taylor for being willing to take on the difficult task of selecting the winners for the competition.
“What an honor and pleasure to spend a few hours enjoying your Citra creations. I am continually surprised and impressed by the imagination and talent exhibited in this work.
I’m a big fan of texture and Citra papers are all that!
Thank you for the privilege and daunting task of jurying this body of work.
In addition to design and compositional elements I took into account the actual use of Citra papers, unique and unusual presentation and if I could “feel” the artist in the work.
You are all to be congratulated on your work. Contests are fun, but the sheer joy of “art-ing” cannot be equalled.
Keep Creating!”
