Best of Show TALLAHASSEE

While we were exhibiting artwork in the LeMoyne Chain of Parks Art Festival at Tallahassee, the gallery director of Florida A&M University handed AB a prospectus to enter their premier juried annual show at the school and asked us if we could send some work for consideration. SO WE DID AND WON BEST OF SHOW!

PINNACLE, the National Juried Art Competition, exhibited in Foster Tanner Fine Art Gallery from June 5 through June 26, 2009, was organized by Harris R. Whiltsher II and Aja Roache, professors of art at Florida A&M. Featured in the exhibit were 43 works chosen by juror Grace Maloy, Director, Gadsden Art Center at Quincy, Florida. We are especially grateful to her for choosing our work, Forgotten in the Morning, as Best of Show. This marks the third award presented us by a national show for the artwork.

The work is a soft pastel on rag board presented in a silver leaf aedicule frame.
