Sample of works
From the Juror
It was both a great pleasure and honor to jury a show here at River Arts. I appreciated the high quality and enthusiasm of the all the work that the artists submitted. What an enormous and engaging menagerie of Birds, Beast and Bugs to choose from in all media imaginable!
I see clearly that every artist is working from his or her heart, soul and nerve in a very personal and often passionate way. When so many images are alive and kicking, choosing between pieces becomes very difficult.
Art itself is an animal of independent character, which can take us in very unexpected directions. I tried to find those kinds of explorations in what I saw, to choose work that I might not see elsewhere, work that gives a fresh or unexpected view of our animal familiars.
Congratulations to all the artists who submitted! I hope you enjoy the show!
