< BACK TO COMPETITION FRONT PAGE Congratulations 2022 Dakota Pastel Contest Finalists!Congratulations to the 2022 Dakota Pastel Contest Winners! And to everyone who entered, hats off to you. It takes great courage to put yourself out there and, as our jurors agree, the number of worthy paintings from which to choose is tremendous. In our 3rd Year of the competition, we are beginning to see Emerging artists progress their techniques & styles, take home awards, and even move into the Established category. A Big Thanks to our team of Jurors for the 2022 Contest: Karen Margulis, Otto Sturcke, Rita Kirkman, and Andrew McDermott. We recognize the time and effort it takes to view so many entries and the difficulty of making the final selections. Your thoughtfulness and professionalism in jurying each Quarter and the Final Winners is appreciated. |
