Award Sponsor: RayMar Art
Judge: Michelle Dunaway
Blue Sky and Figure by David Shevlino
19 x 17, oil painting
Judge's Comments:
This painting really captivated me the moment I saw it. The artist so
eloquently captured, through a conservation of brushwork , the sense of
suspended movement ; the stillness of the diver within that moment in
mid air. The solid anatomical structure juxtaposed with the intuitive
loose brushwork told the story in a beautiful and powerful way. I felt
my breath catch as I saw this image because of it's simplicity and power
, the movement and stillness conveyed simultaneously. - Michelle
