Nevada County artists and friends Jill Mahanna and Ruth Chase have been accepted to the 80th Crocker-Kingsley Competition. The Kingsley Art Club, in cooperation with Sacramento’s Crocker Art Museum and the Blue Line Gallery, holds a biennial competition for established artists as well as artists just emerging on the scene.
Both painters live in Nevada County. Jill is an oil painter of abstract and expressionist landscapes. Her painting, “Bridges,” was accepted into the show; it is part of her current series on paths and destination. Ruth will be exhibiting “She Finds Her Way,” a reflection on how childhood shapes womanhood, and the role vulnerability plays in our development.
