JUDGE’S STATEMENT
|
It was fun but challenging. I really enjoyed looking at every piece, but like apples and oranges it's hard to decide between the styles, techniques, and execution of each piece, looking past the experience of the artist. I tried to look at each piece of work according to how the piece works aesthetically. I tried to ask myself, does the piece work compositionally and texturally, employing design elements and principles attempted. Finally which pieces would stand up critically to an audience of average art lovers? Thanks for the opportunity to judge my first "online" show. Obviously seeing some of the works in "live time" some different decisions might be made, but that wasn't the case. Finally, as I often am asked to do, I would be glad to offer any critique or advice to the participants. Arnie Anderson
