Valley Art Show Awards 2006 2006 Judge Peter Churcher said, “In each category I was looking for the work that had some little unique and individual "spark" about it. In choosing the winner in each category I was reminding myself that making art is not about a skillful rendition of a formula but has to have some element of personal discovery and individual flair. With this in mind, I found myself overlooking those works that followed a pre-determined mould or "look" and was drawn to those works that had something a bit "quirky" and unique about them. In many cases this meant that I ruled out large, impressive pieces that displayed technical bravura, yet slavishly adhering to a known formula and favoured smaller, more individual works that showed that "spark" and personal obsession. I am aware that some of the sponsors are wine-makers in the region, and I don't need to explain "obsession" to them! I would like to point out that these comments I make about art can easily be applied to their own art of wine-making . . . we remember always those wines that hold their own unique character and step outside the "known" and make their own little bold statement”. Peter Churcher, King Valley Art Show, 9 June 2006
