Four Stages of Grief – Contest Winners
On Fine Art America recently, Robin Muirhead, TerryAnne Groehler and myself, ran a jurored contest where artists were asked to portray one of the four stages of grief.
We had some amazing art entered and choosing just three winners was very hard. The three artists whose images we did pick, are all highly skilled in their fields and I expect to see much more of their work in the future.

Entangledby Denny Bond
“A nationally recognized award winning watercolorist and illustrator, my recent works have been published in Watercolor Artist, February, 2008, and American Artist, June, 2007, showcasing several of my paintings and describing my technique of painting.
“I approach each painting with the thought of wanting to return to review it again at a later date. If I can capture that interest within myself, the content and execution of the painting is successful. All my paintings are created with permanent liquid watercolors with the use of masking fluid for areas to create texture, and capture white light. The watercolors are then layered several times to achieve the desirable color and all surface edges are softened many times to produce the effect of photo realism, viewed either from a distance or close up.�
“A graduate of Kutztown University with a BFA in Commercial Art (Communications,) I originally began my career as a graphic designer and illustrator in a design studio, but now I work solely as a freelance illustrator and fine artist. I am a signature member of the Pennsylvania Watercolor Society sgg, the Baltimore Watercolor Society, the Philadelphia Watercolor Society, and Watercolor USA.”
