Painng in “plein air,” a French term for painng outdoors, is a flourishing trend in the art world as was evident in the strong response to the museum’s juried exhibion. All ages submied artworks for the compeon. Purchase prizes totaling up to $3,000 were award- ed. Sponsors are Niagara Boling, Hansen Jewelry Co., Hansen Motor Co., ABC Construcon, Nucor, Wahlen Denstry and (anonymous) in memory of Elenora “Nora” Henriea Koer Biddulph. Juror for the compeon was Lydia Gravis, Shaw Gallery Direc- tor at Weber State University. Gravis has a Bachelor of Arts in painng and drawing and a Master of Fine Arts in visual art. She selected the following for awards: Allen Brockbank, Centerville, First Place for “Sanpete Serenade”; G. Russell Case, Brigham City, Second Place for “Willard Morning”; and Isaac Brockbank, Perry, Third Place for “Misty A er- noon.” Gravis chose Allen Brockbank’s painng for an award because his “composion and linear perspecve evokes curiosity in the viewer. The artwork gives a sense of nostalgia for rural America through lighng as well as depicng an old house, buildings and a dirt road. The work conveys a sense of quiet and simplicity.” The juror singled out Case for honors because his piece “conveys that sasfying sense of color one feels with the golden light that happens in the morning. He took a simple composion and brought the scene to life through color and han- dling of paint.” Gravis picked Isaac Brockbank’s artwork for recognion because it “portrays the scene we’ve been inundated with lately – smoky skies! Also, the scene gives the viewer a sense of calm which is achieved through composion, color scheme, warm underpainng and small size of canvas.” Sanpete Serenade by Allen Brockbank Page 3 • hp://brighamcity.utah.gov/senior-center.htm Brent & Lori Gillies Brigham City’s ONLY Locally Owned Mortuary Owners (435) 723-8333 634 East 200 South x (435) 339-0369 x www.gilliesfuneralchapel.com Brigham Karen Rustan Medical Clinic GRI, ABR, CRS, SRES Physicians: (Senior Real Estate Specialist) James R.
