I have been following Gary's work since he went back to school and am familiar with his work, as I am with many DC area artists who submitted. None of the judges had personal relationships with any of the artists. I know Gary because he is an artist and I like and follow his work.

I know that it is hard to keep nepotism out of these sort of competitions, but someone ought to try to make sure that they don't devolve into "friends" of the jurors winning most of the time... Hint: It was one of the two DC area jurors ====> NOT the Baltimore one!

The hair project goes no where and stacked pillow cases is absurd. When you wonder why Washington doesn't have a respectable reputation in the arts you need only go to Gallery B and see what the Trawick group thinks is the best in contemporary art. I'm sorry, it's a joke.Johnnoreply@blogger.com
