"Hopi Maiden"
by Julia Wall, Jemez Pueblo / Chippewa

Description: Ink drawing with colored pencil on drawing paper.

About this Award: Awarded to recognize quality in any artistic medium. Artists of age 13 to 17 are eligible.

Juror's Comments:
Dawn Cromwell: This 2-dimensional work has a strong sense of the artists vision.  Space is used well with positioning of the young woman in the center with the framing continuously drawing the viewer's eye back to the center.
