Feb 28 – Portraits of People
Judge – Shelley Miller
– A portrait of a living human person. i.e. no pets, statues,
photos, paintings, etc…
“A portrait is a painting, photograph, sculpture, or other
artistic representation of a person, in which the face and its
expression is predominant. The intent is to display the
likeness, personality, and even the mood of the person. For
this reason, in photography a portrait is generally not a
snapshot, but a composed image of a person in a still position.
A portrait often shows a person looking directly at the painter
or photographer, in order to most successfully engage the
subject with the viewer.”
