"Francesca"
Medium: Charcoal Drawing
Judges Comments:
This painting has incredible presence, mood and intensity found in the expression of the woman's face. Very well executed work.

"Willow the Willing Worker"
Medium: Charcoal Drawing
Judges Comments:
Really got the character of a draft horse - encumbered by his harness yet yet a free spirit. Nice contrast between something alive and it's equiptment. Wonderfully technical, good knowledge of the equine form. Interesting texture between leather, metal, and softness of his coat.
