 Coleman,_Karen -Illuminated S_Night Drollery_Honorable Mention!

 Pifel, Joseph-The Southernmost SunsetDuring a vacation to Key West, I loved how sunsets were always a celebrated event. The Sunset Celebration is a local gathering where many people, tourists included, can take a moment to sit at the edge of a pier and enjoy the fleeting moments of the sun, and to add a proper close to the end of another wonderful day. Which I feel encompasses Key West’s true relaxing nature.

Much like the peony, dahlias have all those fantastic fluffy petals. I love to see them in bridal bouquets, especially the café au lait dahlias. There is something magical in the way their petals fall. Grand Dam Oil 26 x 18 $345 Sheila Huyett |  Huyett, Sheila-Oh the Tangles Webs We WeaveSunflowers are wonderfully unruly flowers. They prefer to arrange themselves, making it a challenge to unravel the ins-and-outs to each flower. This particular group seemed to be woven together, reminding me of the difficulties people have when they aren’t always transparent. Oh the Tangled Webs We Weave Oil 16 x 20 $395 Sheila Huyett |

 MerkinKaren_HeartsandRibbonsI have always been fascinated with the use of color, and the subtlety of light and shadow on those colors.

 Petrecca, Regina-Swirl I II-24x36 diptych-acrylic on canvasAbstract art is more about the shapes, colors, gestural marks and the feelings it expresses. It does not attempt to represent an accurate depiction of visual reality. This give you, the viewer, the freedom to interpret it as you choose. So just stand back and think about the emotions and concepts the painting elicits in you. Swirl I and II (diptych) Acrylic 24 x 18 (each) $500 Regina Petrecca |  Pifel, Joseph-Simple MomentsIt’s the simplest moments that leave the greatest impact. During a walk in D.C., I noticed the many people watching the boats on the water, the paddle boarders, the kayakers. From the outside, many may think that moments like these aren’t that special, when one looks back at their own memories, it’s those simple times that often seem the best.
