June Comp 2020

Online Exhibition June 2020

(see May Competition)

Many thanks to everybody who voted. Out of 31 pictures there were four that were clear of the field, but one very clear winner. Congratulations, Sue!

First Place. #24 Sue Williams Abstract Landscape 22 points

A very powerful piece reminiscent of early German Expressionism such as the vivid landscapes of Emil Nolde. A real favourite with OVAS members who voted.

Second Place. #4 Carolyn Barker Vantage Point 16 points

A charmingly pensive composition and a very popular public choice.

Third Place. #7 Mike Stevens Yellow Field #2 12 points

A looser and more expressive direction from Mike? A wonderfully rich palette, as always, but an exciting feeling of movement in the grasses and trees.

Fourth Place. #19 Linda Hampson Secretary Bird 11 points

A hyper-realist portrait of a very extraordinary bird. Amazing!

So here, in bigger format, are all four:
