This year's People's Choice Award went to an oil on canvas painting entitled “Rufus”, of a black bear by Deac Mong of Franklin, PA. As his prize, Mr. Mong received a hand-made stoneware bowl, 'Northern Lights’ produced by fellow artist Cheri Lee Anderton-Yarnell of Franklin, part of Moonrise Porcelain & Stoneware.
The runner-up is a scene entitled “Girl in the Garden” which Franklin resident Mary Rose Ragon made using pressed plant material which she harvested from fields near her home.
