Congratulations to Anna Ganina for Art is Dead winning Best Overall at Wild Heart Gallery's "MOOD. Animals with Attitude" art exhibition!

BEST IN SHOW
Art is Dead, by Anna Ganina
36 × 48 in, Acrylic, marble powder on canvas
The paint quality, adept addition of marble powder, multiple painting techniques that still come together cohesively, color use, textures (both replicated and in paint), and overflowing mood of this one secured it Best in Show. It is an all around great painting that fits the theme solidly. The use of an “animeople” rather than a giraffe that is wholly a giraffe works here for the message of the piece.
See the entire painting, read the artist’s thoughts on the work, and enjoy the rest of the virtual exhibition at wildheartgallery.com (link below).
