Awards at the Annual Judged Miniature Show

ARTIST’S RECEIVE UNIQUE AWARDS FOR AMAZING ART
What a fun night!!! Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy beautiful art and support the artists in the Miniature Show. It is always a difficult endeavor to choose only a few pieces from a collection of such beautiful work to receive awards, but we think our judge, Theresa Leasure, did a superb job. Thank you Theresa!!!

The exhibit will be on display until the end of September, so make sure you get in to see the pieces that won!

Also, don’t forget! We have some amazing sales on art this month! Up to 30% off select pieces!!!

Now, on to the awards. This year there were 4 categories: Painting, Drawing, Photography and Sculpture/3D. Painting included watercolors, mixed media, oil, and acrylic.
