Judges:
Main Judge - Jody Ahrens
We are thrilled to have award-winning abstract landscape painter Jody Ahrens as our main judge this year. Jody’s sense of color and composition delight viewers and art collectors. Her mastery of realistic abstraction is unique.
Jody Ahrens has been immersed in art as long as she can remember. Although her early art education was well-structured and traditional, she found more freedom with abstraction at the California Institute of the Arts. She was invited to show at the prestigious 2017’s Colorado Governor’s Show. Visit her website at: www.jodyahrens.com
Photography Judge - Christopher Eaton
We are pleased to announce our photography judge. Christopher K. Eaton is a photographer, filmmaker, and writer based out of Colorado. He spends much of his time traveling across the Colorado Plateau and the American West where he works and plays on some of our nation’s most amazing public lands. Originally from Southern California, he has been roaming the American Southwest for much of his life. Trained with a filmmaker’s eye, Christopher is always looking for the uncommon in his surroundings; whether it be the subtle play of light on small objects, hidden patterns in the landscape, or sweeping vistas off the beaten path, the Earth is filled with creative opportunities in every corner. Pinyon Ridge Photography represents Christopher's fine art photography as well has his efforts to capture the landscape in motion. Visit his website at: www.PinyonRidgePhoto.com
Fiber Art Judge-Nancy Dobson
We are excited to include Nancy Dobson. Growing up in the heart of the Allegheny National Forest in Northwestern Pennsylvania instilled a love for the outdoors. From the prairies and the mountains of Wyoming, to the majestic mountains of Alaska, and to the captivating red rocks of western Colorado, she finds inspiration in her surroundings. After thirty years in Alaska, she and her husband now call western Colorado home. She loves working in a mixed media environment of quilting, painting, and dye work to bring the environments alive. The colors and shapes admired while hiking in the high desert have a profound impact on how Nancy approaches her work.
Nancy is a member of The Art Quilt Association, The Raven Mavens Critique Group and SAQA. She enjoys working with other artists, whether it is to collaborate on a project or explore new techniques. Visit her website at: www.nancydobson.com
