A great big CONGRATULATIONS to 9-year-old Brianna Richard, the winner of our very first Young Artist of the Month contest on StittsvilleCentral.ca.
Brianna lives in Stittsville and attends Grade 4 at École élémentaire catholique Saint-Rémi in Kanata. Her artwork (above) is titled “Summer Rays”, and is an abstract using markers.
The judging was tough! Our panel included a pair of elementary school students who chose Brianna’s art because of her creative use of contrasting colours, and her abstract approach. “Not all art is looking outside and drawing the exact picture,” said one of our judges.
As a prize, Brianna will have her artwork professionally framed by Walkerworks Picture Framing at the corner of Stittsville Main & Beverly.
Thanks to all of the talented Stittsville artists who entered the contest. Our judges had a really hard time deciding on a winner! All of the entries are included below.
