Thank you so much to our three Community Paint Judges. There was no tie-breaker, they all agreed on the winners, but were amazed by how much people got done in the three hours alloted. They said it was close on a few. What a hard job, but they had a criteria to follow with a 1 - 5 score.

We appreciate you and your professionalism! Thank you!

Thank you Judge Jenny Taylor! When you called me in and said you had something to talk about, I couldn't imagine. A tie for 3rd? What do you want to do? Split the prize, of course!

Jenny did an amazing job. Thank you very much for judging our 1st Paint North Alabama Plein Air Competition. Put it on your calendar for next year, the same weekend!

What a fun time at the Closing Reception for the Paint North Alabama Plein Air Competition! We had a wonderful turnout at the Heritage Scottsboro-Jackson Heritage Center!

Many thanks to Jackson County citizens for supporting this event all the way. The painters knew they were in a good place when our people stopped and asked if they needed water, bug spray, a bathroom, an umbrella! All of the paintings coming back reflected our beautiful area through an artist's eyes. Just stunning!

If the artist chose to leave their work at the Heritage Center until June 13th, you will still be able to view the paintings and purchase. Stop over and check them out. If you want one, contact River's Edge Gallery and they will make it happen for you.

Many thanks for all of the volunteers we had working the reception. That was the prettiest buffet line I had ever seen! And those chicken salad sandwiches of Lynn Sisco's were divine! :)
