Jurors' Comments:
Ramson: It's the piece I kept coming back to. It brings out a lot of natural earth elements in a very clear way. It's not so busy; I liked the rug but it seemed really busy. I like the simplicity of the background of the vessel contrasted with the raised lizards.
Jennifer: It has a nice looking form. It's done so simply but the artist accentuated the form with bodies of the lizards.
Shonto: (of the Runner Up, Raised Outline Navajo rug) This is a nice soft piece, other than being raised, it had nice soft look, utilizing storm pattern, staying away from sacred images, nice secular example, beautiful work, technical aesthetic, and softness.
