Free from the Tethers of Motion

Photos by Jannelle Weakly

Description: Painting of an old car and trailer: acrylic on canvas.

Jurors' Comments: Holly: Very evocative—I feel I'm there and can feel what the artist was feeling as he painted it. || Terrell: I had a feeling of a sad lonely deserted place from the composition, the abandoned trailer... The color of the storm clouds looks like a typical northern winter night.
