Winners, We Got the Winners!
At many of the art shows at Open Space Arts at the Stonebridge Shopping Center in Woodbridge, we have the guests vote for their favorite art piece (People's Choice) when they visit the latest art show. This month's show called "A Harvest of Artists" will come to a close on Sunday, November 20, 2022. The show opened on Nov 2 which is a little shorter show than usual but with the big holidays coming, well the new show will begin on Nov 23.
Harvest of Artist People's Choice Winners
The voting was well dispersed across all the current selections (good to know everyone got votes!) but there were three that stood out to the visitors. So I need to tell you who was selected...A drum roll please...
Third Place: is actually a painting that has already sold. No wonder we couldn't find it when we wanted to pin the ribbon! We hung the white ribbon next to one of Fatima (Sumi) Farzana's other pieces, but the third place winning painting goes to Sumi's "Autumn Flame".
Thank fully, when the Open Space Arts (OSA) committee first hung the show, I took pictures - so here is "Autumn Flame".
Sumi's "Autumn Flame" is on the left and is the Third Place Winner.
Another piece of Sumi's that is honorarily wearing her ribbon.
Second Place: Ann McCarty takes second place with the red ribbon for "Gulf Sunset".
First Place: Getting that blue ribbon, the top prize, the big blue, the whole enchilada (if we were handing out those tasty treats) goes to Anna Gatling and her painting called "Raspberry Crush".
Congratulations to the winners!
