Magnolia Tree #2 Washington, Arkansas

This painting won 3rd place in the National Competition, FSAC 58th Annual Art Competition. The opening reception for the paintings chosen for the show was Thursday night, June 5th. I was fortunate to have 2 paintings chosen for the show, this "Magnolia Tree #2" and "Fall in Arkansas #3" also in my portfolio. The show will run until the end of June at the Ft. Smith Art Center. The 2nd photo is of myself with my award winning painting. Hope you enjoy! This painting is now in the Permanent Collection of the Fort Smith Regional Art Museum!

I can see why it won a spot in the competition. It is one of your best impasto-style paintings. Love it!!!

That painting is so textured and richly done Sharon, it's easy to see why it's a prizewinner! I scrolled down to see the cute picture of you and was surprised by scale of the artwork! Like reproductions of the art of Georgia O'Keefe (which are often small in reality), your Magnolia Tree appears monumental! Its actual dimensions are a surprise!

Sharon, I truly like the clarity of the captured piece... there is nothing quite comparable to the rich fragrance of the Magnolia trees as you walk beneath them or actually climb them. You look so pretty in front of this prized composition. Warm regards............... H Josephson Rios.
