The 2020 Cambridge WRAP was the first to be held online. Each participating artist mailed or emailed images for up to 3 works to the Cambridge Show coordinator Jill Jensen. The images were then uploaded to the cloud with a link to the show on the UW WRAP website.
The show judge was Diana Cavalerro. Diana received her Bachelor of Fine Art from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2006. In 2016 she received her Master of Fine Art degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Diana has exhibited in Chicago, New York, Madison and various places around Wisconsin. Her mediums include oil, ink and watercolor.
On May 2nd, Diana did a Portrait Demo for the Cambridge WRAP participants via Zoom. 15 artists attended the Zoom presentation. Then to follow up, there was a Critique Happy Hour via Zoom on the evening of May 7th during which Diana commented on pieces as requested by the artists. Both sessions went well and were well attended despite many participants being Zoom "newbies." Fun to see everyone even from afar.
I submitted two small mixed media portraits - Carl (5 X 7) and Lemonade (7 X 7). Carl received a State Award so can be entered into the State Show in September.
