2020 AJME Award: 2nd in Show

Intent, 6 x 6

by Rita Kirkman

Price: $300


Jean Rosier Smith, judge and juror, comment:

This painting is small but mighty, grabbing the viewer with an intense direct gaze. The glowing backlight against rich shadows, all in lush contrasts of orange and greens are both believable and alive. What’s his intent? We can’t say, but we can’t look away.
