1st place – On the Road Again No 1 by Colleen Gardener

The control of composition and tone and the use of hard and soft edges on a small scale has been beautifully handled.

A clever composition with lovely interactions between the shapes and a limited monochromatic colour palette. Simple and beautiful.

An interesting composition. I admired the rich tonality and variety of textures which blended with the background while retaining a depth of field and atmosphere.

2nd place – Tanya by Grant Quinn

This image really popped as a slice of reality in such a way that it left me wondering about the subject and the story. Nice composition and cropping. The eye was led on an interesting textural journey.

This series of photos really captured a sense of time spent contemplating a place. It conveys distinct emotions which is enhanced by the window framing.

1st place – Old Bull by Justin Allan

A purely representational sculpture showing textures and a good understanding of balance and form.

2nd place – Cruisin’ the Scenic Rim by Darryl Gillum

A humorous sculpture which tells a story. I can see this in many iterations, perhaps even on a larger scale.

H/C- Pelican by Nadine Baldwin

A lovely small sculpture showing control of the medium and a restrained but considered composition.

1st Place – The Snow Gum by Marjorie Tate

This beautiful painting has a lovely subtle limited colour palette and is well constructed in its use of tones and temperature.
