Anne NoonanPrimavera CelebrationIntroduction to the Primavera celebration.

I believe that the best artwork communicates visually so no words are needed not too much technology and when you look at it you have a re you have a visceral response.

Craig CampbellJudging CriteriaExplaining his judging criteria.

If I were to say change the work in any way a good friend of mine who taught for many years said if you ever wonder about a two-dimensional work a drawing or painting how you want to make it better make the darkers dark darker make the darks darker and the lights lighter contrast make them higher contrast.

Craig CampbellArtistic AdviceOffering advice to artists.

I saw some designs that were really exceptional but the contrast was very muted so i really encourage you to keep working be happy with the work you're doing look at lots of other work and carry on.

We have two more awards that we like to give out every year at the end of primavera and we have an award that's called the myrna kaner award which is named after the charter member of the plymouth arts council she was an educator and so we always like to give that to a student.
