              Judge for the show was Roanoke artist Suzanne Davis Ross.
              Following a career in graphics and fashion illustration in that city, Ross earned an MS in art education from Radford University.
              She is a member of the Watercolor Honor Society, founding member of the Virginia Watercolor Society with Signature status, and continues to exhibit in their annual exhibits as often as possible. She also continues to study with American masters of watercolor.
              A self-described “art encourager” and collaborator, she has shown with the Franklin County 4, the Virginia 8, and most recently, the Soup Group, a collection of 44 regional Virginia portraitists. She particularly enjoyed 10 years as an elementary art specialist for the Franklin County Public Schools.
              “I agree with artist Robert Genn that ‘Art is fluid, transmutable, open-ended, never complete and never perfect. ART is an event,’” Ross said.  “I’m delighted to be asked back for a second opportunity to judge the work in his show.
              The artists have obviously made good use of COVID quarantine time by putting their art sensibilities, brushes and other implements to excellent use.
              “I am delighted that the Alleghany Highlands Arts and Crafts Center was able to continue to do this exhibit and am impressed by the range of subject matter and skills offered here,” she added. “I love that many of the pieces suggest a sense of humor or whimsy — that seems especially important just now. Every category has work that demonstrates good design, skillful technique and imagination.
              “Congratulations to one and all and thank you for providing this chance to enjoy the show,” Ross said.
              “Our appreciation goes to the artists for their hard work and great turn out for the 2020 show,” said Nancy Newhard, AHAAC curator. “Over the years of presenting this very special exhibit we have seen artists — and the show itself — grow and develop. Artists tryout new ideas, others exhibit work for the first time, and many continue to polish their skills. The community is richer for their efforts.
              “I hope everyone will take time to see and enjoy it — and vote for their favorite for people’s choice award, while the show is on display,” Newhard continued. “Each year it just seems to get better and better.
              “Congratulations to each one for you all for this making this a great show for our guests,” she concluded. “A huge amount of credit and appreciation also is due our volunteers who really make the show happen in an amazingly short period of time frame for check in, arranging, hanging, lighting, proofreading, glass cleaning and labeling. Thanks go to Director Connie Baker, Betsy and Buddy Carter, Becca Ball, Honey Hepler, Lois Mc Mullan and Heidi Rogers.” 
              The Alleghany Highlands Arts and Crafts Center is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and on Sundays from 1-4 p.m.
              It is supported by its members, contributors, the town of Clifton Forge, the city of Covington, Alleghany County, The Alleghany Foundation, the Virginia Commission for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts
              The Alleghany Highlands Arts and Crafts Center can also be found on Facebook and Twitter and can be reached at highandsartsandcraft.org@gmail.com.
