The Art Factory announces Art on the Wall Phase II Winners

 

The Art Factory and the Augusta Utilities Department are pleased to announce the winners of the juried competition for Phase II of ‘Art on the Wall.”

The winners are:   Steve Krecskay, Stephen Snyder, Leonard Zimmerman, Brian Stewart, Cyndy Epps, and Rocky Millwood.  The winners were chosen from a field of 28 entries.  The focus of the competition was “Water.”  Each artist will paint their mural on a 12 ft. x 30 ft. section of the wall on Wrightsboro Road which surrounds the Augusta Utilities Department facility.

The artwork was juried by a professional panel of three artists –
Pat Walker, Professor of Painting and Drawing, Georgia Southern College
Jim Slagle, Chair – Visual Arts Department, Lander College
Alan MacTaggart, Chair – Visual Arts Department, Augusta State University

Phase II of the Art on the Wall project is supported by the Augusta Utilities Department and will begin in March 2010.  All murals will be completed by June 1, 2010.
