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.

2nd place – The Silver Claret by Glenn Smith

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

A very striking facial form with a lovely presentation.

A beautifully constructed piece showing good technique.

H/C – Emu Gully by Ann Window

My eye wandered around this composition finding many areas of interest. Compelling storytelling on a grand scale.

1st place – Corroded by Leon Chester

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.

H/C – One Day Closer To Rain – Peter Van Der Veen

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.

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