Prize Winner
“I chose Frida Kahlo for my letter project. I wanted to incorporate the bridge she and Diego had between their side by side separate dwellings and also how she referred to her house as Casa Aazul.
I live in a yellow house, so wrote from Casa Amarilla. Her life reminds me that I can achieve my goals and live a productive life all the way to the end, despite injury, setbacks, pain or relationship problems.”
Honorable Mention
Dana Baker
I wrote to a local artist that I love, Pilar Pobil, in the hopes of introducing a few people to her. I love that her work inspires me to not be afraid to use color. I used gouache for the artwork and ink for the letter.
