Merit Award

Holland Wentz Etheridge

Open Window
Watercolor

“Open Window “ by Holland Etherridge employs a sensitive handling of watercolor and creates a wonderfully rich play of surface and space and lost and found edges. It depicts a compelling architectural wall featuring a mysterious shuttered open widow. Both in detail and suggestion the paint handling works well to suggest the patina, age and archeological layers of the wall. Its simultaneous intensity of observation and sense of quiet mystery are interests it shares with the streetscapes of Panamanian-American artist Mel Rosas.
