The Bird Witness 36×24″, acrylic on canvas—Selected by the juror Matthew T. McLaughlin

I am inspired by children’s art and try to keep my forms and colors as fresh and limitless as a child’s imagination. Witnessing horror and death while hanging to hope and happiness are what billions of kids in the world are doing. Innocent animals go through this too.
