Award Winning Artist

As a student of Nan Henke here in Fredericksburg I qualified for entry into the Fredericksburg Art Guild’s 10th Annual Adult Student Art Contest. All of Nan’s watercolor students and Truby Hardin’s Oil Painting students were eligible to enter.

Awards were given for Best in Show, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places as well as the Oil Palette Knife Challenge, Most Promising Watercolor (Blue Winter), and two Best in Show Awards.
