Juror Statement: Inaugural Jane Shannahan Hill Offut Members’ Exhibition

Arielle Marks Award for Best Print – Blue Nebula III, Rosemary Cooley

“An extremely impressive work demonstrating mastery of technique. The artist handles complex shapes and forms with confidence, creating a composition that feels both dynamic and cohesive. The print medium is pushed into a sense of three dimensionality - this is truly a remarkable technical and artistic achievement.”

— Daniel Weiss, past president of Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and present president of Philadelphia Museum of Art
