Kudo's

Gary Friedman's watercolor, "By Dawn's Early Light", has been chosen BEST OF SHOW by Judge: Eugeniu Gorean at the 52 Members Exhibition of the Watercolor Society of South Texas in Port Aransas, Texas.

Here is what the judge had to say about it.
"The grand prize is awarded to this painting. It seems to be a land where light and shadow compete. Subtly created, sometimes in "sfumato", with a beautiful balance wet and dry - a low tide that gives the feeling of a new beginning, a genesis. The diagonally directed light makes this composition more dramatic. Thanks to the discreet traction, with small splashes of color, it vibrates in the sun."
