The opening reception for the 5th Annual Fantasy Show "Vessels" included live music, elegant food and drink, and was attended by about 100 artists and fans. The exhibit of 56 pieces of art in an exotic variety of media remains on display through Sept. 30 in the Ezell Gallery at the Silver Center, 510 E. Court St., Seguin. Karen Roberson was last year's winner and chair of this show. Reception Committee Chair Ann Leithead was responsible for the refreshments and black, red, and white decor.
As First Place winner, Sandra Baggett takes possession of the Salvador Dali Traveling Trophy for her mixed media piece called "Shadowed Flowers." Sandra will keep the trophy through next year's show and has the duty of thinking up next year's fantasy theme.
Pictured from left are winning artists Elisabeth Montgomery of Gonzales who took Second Place with her watercolor "Home, Sweet Home," Sandra with the trophy, Sandra Elbel Taylor of San Antonio whose "Odyssey of Fiber" won an Honorable Mention, and Carolyn Croft of New Braunfels whose clay "Tornado Drill" also won an Honorable Mention. Not pictured are Third Place Winner Gillian Siemens for "Have Boat, Will Travel" and Honorable Mention winner Patricia Hanley for "Vesselville," both of Seguin.
