Judge: Maggie Cantrell
Maggie has been a resident of Lancaster County for the past 25 years. She graduated from Millersville University with degrees in Art, Communication Theatre and Education. For the past 18 years she has been an art educator at the Penn Manor School District at both the elementary and high school levels.
When judging art she is looking for individual expression and communication, mood/feeling, and the works overall craftsmanship along with technique. To Maggie, a work of art should not only draw the viewer in but keep the viewer interested and exploring its process and meaning.
There are many ways to grow as artists and one of her favorites is to see the work of others. She has enjoyed learning from your artistic processes and would like to thank everyone at the Lancaster County Art Association for the honor of jurying this show.

Brenda Blank: “Home"
Brenda’s theme for this exhibit is “Home”, with paintings inspired by places and things found here at home in Lancaster County. She was born and raised in rural parts of our county, surrounded by farms and open fields. The aged and weathered buildings, trees, streams and gardens have always captured her attention.
A self-taught artist, she finds watercolor painting both relaxing and energizing. Her passion is to highlight the beauty in the things around her. By sketching and painting ordinary things, she likes to show the meaning and purpose those things provide in our daily lives. Someone once encouraged her to “paint the pearl”. Life is gull of visual gifts and special moments. Brenda hopes to represent these pearls of life in her paintings.
