NEW INTERNATIONAL COLOR PHOTOGRAPHY AWARD! NO.4 OF 6 'DOOR, ST. IVO'

Overjoyed when I heard the news that my art had won six awards in five categories among 6,786 entries from 78 countries in prestigious international competition for fine art color photography. DOOR, ST. IVO is the fourth NEWS item featuring a Nominee Award (Still Life) received in the 2022 15th Annual International Color Awards. My sincere and deepest thanks to the 15th Annual International Color Awards distinguished jury for this recognition.

The haunting, watchful centuries-old gaze of a .guardian door knocker in a 17th century church courtyard in Rome seems unaffected by time unlike its weathered surroundings. DOOR, ST. IVO is actually a pendant image, meaning, it is intended to be paired with another image, in this instance, MOVE OVER, BASQUIAT! (which also won a Nominee Award). Both are urban images from Rome. They are like old and new Rome, the past and the present.

Parked on a grass strip on the side of a rural VA road, a white pickup truck with an eye-catching sign advertises 3 dozen females (crabs) for sale for $30.00. The clarity of the air, the deep blue sky, the perfectly formed and situated clouds, the very green grass, even the sunlight made this rural scene of a truck parked on the grass shoulder of a rural road seem like a sculptured art form.
