The

The
Best in Show winners are Joe Horton for his oil on canvas, "Midnight"
and Peter Shepherd for his digital photograph, "Sculpture and

December 2016 and, as the Best in Show winners, both artists are also
invited to participate in Fusion Art's 2nd Annual Group Show in Palm
Springs, CA, in November 2017.
Other
award winners include Second Place winners, Travis Verlaeckt for his
graphite pencil on paper, "Cleo" and Artur Golacki for his

remaining finalists in the exhibition, including four Honorable
Mention winners - Cliff Kearns, Peter Broitman, Nicholas Teetelli and
