It makes for some visually interesting comparisons. Fascinating, too, to read the artist's own thoughts on a favorite piece. Loryn Spangler-Jones' work, "Ecstasy" has a Paul Klee aesthetic, and simplicity that I love. Wonderful visual dynamics created by the opposing arrow forms in the layered background! Anne Bagley's "Queen" is a lovely incredibly multi-layered study in variations on white and grey. The cutout frame creating the shadow box effect is, in my opinion, simply superb! I also find very interesting AnTonia Griva's "Almost Steady Going Nowhere:" a strong vertical composition with wonderfully subtle, light-to-dark modeling on face, neck, and torso, and an unusual use of simple, strong colors. An artist's thought processes while creating a given piece can be quite revealing. "Playing Favorites" gives us a little look behind that "curtain!"
