Sue Danehy

Sandra
Oil

First Place: Sue Danehy’s oil “Sandra” is an elegant, sympathetic portrait. The soft, subtle modeling of the face contrasts with the strong geometry and lively color of the scarf and makes for an expressive character that is very compelling. The simple background supports the subject, while simultaneously lending a sense of depth and atmosphere through the artist’s use of subtly varied tones. The simplicity and strength of rhythmic shapes and color temperatures are enjoyed for themselves as much as for their depictive quality.  It has an appealing blend of the traditional and the modern.
