Several area artists have taken on the challenge of expressing themselves in a small space, for the 16th annual edition of the Portside Gallery’s Miniature Show. Works from the forty one participants demonstrate that a mini work (less than 16 square inches) can possess all the detail, depth, whimsy or majesty that can be portrayed in a larger work. Many of the artists were on hand this past Sunday afternoon (February 5th) at the opening of the February show.
Candy McManiman’s “Icon Vinaceous” was judged “Best of the Show” with commendation for “a bird revealed to the viewer with the same surprise that a bird watcher has when finding a bird hidden in leaves and sunlight…”
