Comments From the Judge It was an amazing day for me. I was honored to judge the 2024 Quick Draw Competition of the Suffolk Plein Air Festival. The 36 Adults and 7 Youths contestants really worked hard for the two hours that were given to them. I walked around the downtown designated area during the event. The artists nestled in the environment and amongst the crowd of the festival. Judging was no different and was challenging to dodge the crowd and make decisions for 1st,2nd and 3rd prize winners. Everyone did an amazing job. Youth winners were: 1st place goes to Emily Edwards Title: Center of Main Street. I was drawn to her choice of colors and playful rendition of the subject matter. 2nd place goes to Autumn Edwards Title: Teal Turbo I noticed her confidence in using a generous amount of paint and having fun with her brush strokes. She added character to a vehicle that had a lot of character already. 3rd place goes to Makaela Waddington Title: Old City Hall Bell She captured the shape and material of the bell. It had a great presence in her painting as the main focal point. Adult winners were: 1st place goes to Lyudmila Tomova Clark Title: Taste of Fiesta Her color choices and brush strokes were better than most. And on top of that she really captured the spirit of the festival. 2nd place goes to Rajendra Kc Title: Main Street Raj really knows how to command the watercolor medium. His brush strokes add life to the scene. His composition invites you to be part of the event that is laid out in front of you. 3rd place goes to Rokhaya Waring Title: Church Window I really like the pure impression of this subject matter. The amazing spectrum of colors sets the mood. Let me know what your favorite is and why.
