Juror's Statement

Juror Bruce Samuelson said,

“Choices for this exhibition were not only made because of what I thought were right for me, but for what I thought would present an overall excellent show for the LCAA. Choices were made based on: Experimentation

  • Technical and formal skills

  • Imagination

  • Expression of the inherent nature of the materials

  • Most important - Personal Vision.

"I feel this exhibit is exceptional and one of the best I have juried. The quality of the work is high, with the above criteria, featured in the many pieces on display. It is a diverse exhibit with the individuality of the selected artists displayed for all to enjoy.”

Submissions to the Juried Exhibition came from artists in twenty-eight states. A number of Lancaster County artists are represented among the award winners. Judy Beck Lobos of Millersville won First Place in Sculpture & Ceramics. Abby Rudisill of Lancaster won a Second Place in the Watercolor category and Carolyn Coyle won Second Place in Oil & Acrylic.

Since 1968 when he earned a Certificate from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia, Samuelson has pursued a distinguished career as artist and teacher.

His art is included in many public collections including the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the William Penn Museum in Harrisburg, the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa, and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.
