Altar Society Painting - Please Vote!

Post by ThMMcDon »

Posted on behalf of the Holy Cross Altar Society:
First of all, let me say thank you to the 30 photographers who submitted a total of 56 photos! Lois Stipp, the artist who will be painting the winning photograph to be raffled off to benefit the Holy Cross Altar Society, says she looks for “good color palette, strong and varied values, composition, focal point and a universal subject matter” when narrowing down the submissions. We were both astounded at the beautiful photos that were submitted. It was a tough job, but Lois has narrowed the scope down to SIX possibilities! Congratulations to the final 6: Trish Williams Scott, Amie Elton Crawford, Theresa Tort McDonough, Skylar Faith Marsh, Beth Anne Green-Lucas and Becca Foli!

And now, THE VOTING!

Please read before voting:
1. All voting occurs by clicking the attached link and voting. You cannot voice your choice in the comments.
2. We have deliberately not posted which photographer submitted which of these 6 pictures, in an effort to ensure that the voting remains as impartial as possible. So, if you know who submitted the picture, ‘shhhh, don’t tell!’
3. This is a simple google form that we wanted to make as SIMPLE as possible for people voting. This is being done solely on the honor system. One submission per person.
4. Voting will be open for ONE WEEK! (Then we have to let Lois get busy painting!) Voting will end at 8pm on Wednesday, March 15th!
