like any artist the choice cuts like the subject matter is an open cavalcade for
the painter like a freedom....and weirdly also like a prison but what to choose ?
There once was a really resourceful painter who always checks the backgound
of a competition.That is the previous winners.Especially in the different categories.
The artful artist researcher will examine the winners closely for characteristics.
Like the stytle, the content and the type of materials used.one of the biggest clues is the comments that the judges leave about individual entries.
This may sound all a little cold blooded and remote from the happy serendipity
of the chance celebration of a painter on a stumble into prize heaven. Me no .....
just the smell of the paint will do me.
