About this Award: Awarded to acknowledge excellence in non-vessel ceramics.

Jurors' Comments:
Elmer: Its sculpted in humor. The piece itself is just very well done.
Stuart: Beyond liking naked ladies, I thought the piece had great humor and use of the medium.
Traci: (of Runner Up - First Man - which she also voted for previously) I picked this one because while I felt the others were exceptionally good pieces, this represents what my public would want as opposed to what would be done, speaks volumes because of simplicity and because of what it does NOT say.
