Description: Sand on canvas and acrylic.

About this Award: Awarded for high quality in craftsmanship in painting or drawing.

Jurors' Comments:
Ruby Panana: This painting's textures and the ways it has different surfaces just really caught my eye.
Kent McManus: It almost has a petroglyph look to it. While they are all katsina figures, they have this look as if you walked into cave and saw them in the firelight.
Jake Livingston: I like it that all the standing figures are different. And the texture is really interesting.
