Yesterday, over 150 guests gathered at the reception to see the artwork and hear how Daniel Foster selected the Best of Show, along with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. Mr. Foster, former director of the Riverside Art Museum, talked about composition, technical skill, and that an artist could excel at both of these qualities, but if the art lacked meaning, or had little feeling, the art would be missing the extra something needed to make it stand out. My painting, Guardian Angel, represents a tough time in life when a guardian angel came along to help. It could be a spiritual angel and most often, it is another human being that extends out a hand to pick you up. Those special people willing to stand along side of you, no matter what, are true angels and my painting acknowledges them.

The show continues until Nov. 20 and if you are in Rancho Cucamonga, stop by to visit this exhibit that displays a wide assortment of art. http://www.ccaamuseum.org
