- Bev Skidmore sponsors the Peoples’ Choice Award. As Aidan Haley was unable to attend the presentation, she was photographed standing between an excellent rendition of Haley painted by John Gregg and Haley’s People’s Choice 2011 painting titled The Precariousness of Living on’The Rock.
The people have spoken and Picton’s Aidan Haley was named the 2011 winner of the Peoples’ Choice Award at Art in the County. His oil painting ‘The Precariousness of Living on’The Rock” captured the imagination of members of the public who submitted their choice by ballots at the show, and the official judges who had chosen the work as a juror’s award winner.
The jurors stated: “The composition echoes a sensibility of space and place bringing the viewer into the scale and atmosphere of the East coast. The sense of colour and perspective lend a charm that draw us into the ambiance of the scene.”
The Art in the County juried art show closed Sunday, ending a successful 17-day run.
