The Winner of Week One Portraiture Theme Anna Steinhouse Award

THE WINNER OF WEEK 1- #AS_PortraiturePrize of #AnnaSteinhouseAward

Good morning all!

A very special THANK YOU goes to all of you, who submitted your work for Week One ‘Portraiture’ theme. The judges saw an incredible quality and variety of work. Your creativity Is heartwarming.

It was also great to feel a part of such vast art community. This got me through some inspiration blocks and motivated me to paint daily, so thank you all for this.

It was truly difficult to select a winner amongst the entries.

However, after three days of due deliberation, as promised, the panel is now ready to announce Adam Cohn’s work as the winner of Portraiture theme. I am sure you will all join me in congratulating @adamcohn1983
