Ceramics
The Ceramics Club held its First On-The-Spot Contest - Painting.
The club supplied each participant with the bowl, and they used their
own paints, palettes, paraphernalia, and dug deep into their creative soul
for what they consider as an artwork worth a blue ribbon.
Mary Melby won the gold for her delicate rendition of that lovable
comics goddess and poster girl Betty Boop. Pam Yates received silver for
her fine-feathered friend the
cardinal. Winning the bronze is
the skillful dash of abstract and
proper use of color gradation by
Stacy Jacobson.
Judging the contest were:
Lucille Lowe, president;
Barbara Panning, vice president
and Eclid Villarosa, secretary.
The club treasurer, Diane
Smith was the marshal of the
contest. Smith created the
ceramic ribbons given to the
winners along with gift certificates.
The Ceramics Club will hold its second On-The-Spot Contest -
Handbuilding, on July 13 and 14. Contestants will interpret their ideas
using the clay medium.
Membership is only $15 annually for Anthem residents who would
