WRAP State Day 2024


The annual WRAP State Day Exhibit and Conference was held on September 28th at the Pyle Center in Madison. 

I entered my mixed media portrait "Nice Tie" which had won a state award at the Richland Center Regional WRAP show earlier in the year. This piece was similar to my other Portrait collages mixed media on board with an original portrait drawing. It is 17" by 5.5 " and the portrait drawing is an old one of a model from Madison that I did about 10 or 12 years ago. Unlike my other portraits however, I added some 3D embellishments around the collar and added a tassel as a tie...hence the name. 

I was delighted, and honored, that it won one of the awards at the show - the Aaron and Ruth Bohrod Memorial Award.
