These include acrylic, glass, ink, mixed media, oil, photography, resin, wax, and watercolor, all united under the criterion of originality, quality, and thematic relevance.
The “Skies 2024 Show” not only serves as a platform for extraordinary artistic expression but also as a beacon of hope and support for communities in need. In line with this mission, 10% of all entry fees have been donated to SERRV International, a nonprofit organization dedicated to eradicating poverty by providing opportunities to artisans and farmers worldwide.
Donald "C-Note" Hooker, whose works are a highlight of this exhibition, continues to defy boundaries and expectations through his powerful and evocative art. His participation in this show underscores the enduring spirit and resilience of human creativity, even in the most challenging circumstances.
C-Note submitted two works for the exhibition, one was a work created specifically for the exhibition, the other was the 2016 paño he created for the wife of a Chicano prisoner. Paños, also known as handkerchiefs, are a traditional form of Prison art. They are pen or pencil drawings on fabric. C-Note's hyper dramatic "Untitled Seascape," wax paño, can serve as either a seascape or cloudscape
Spanish artist Miguel Barros, who resides in Alberta, Canada, won first prize with his oil on canvas, "The Marriage of the City and the Sky I."
"When you gaze upon my paintings, you're witnessing more than mere pigment on canvas; you're experiencing a profound connection with art itself," states Barrios. "I take pride in my ability to blend traditional techniques with a modern vision, offering viewers a fresh perspective on the world around us.
My artistic journey has taken me far and wide, with my works finding homes in public and private collections across the globe, from the sun-kissed shores of Portugal to the bustling streets of India. In essence, my art is not just a reflection of my own experiences, but a testament to the universal language of creativity that transcends borders and speaks to the soul of humanity."
