Pascucci was impressed by the entries.
“Bravo! Each work is executed well and presented professional, whether framed or stretched,” she said. “By the numbers, I selected 66 works of art. My first and second viewings of the exhibition, I noted 22 works I considered for awards. After several more walk throughs, I narrowed it down to the eight award winners.”
