First place - James Shaffer "Geological Wonderland”

The CAG congratulates James for this honor.

I would like to thank the Stanly Arts Guild and everyone at the Falling Rivers Gallery in Albemarle, NC for hosting a fantastic reception and awards ceremony on 4/11/15. In addition, a very sincere "thank you" to the Gaskin brothers, Jeff, Chuck, David, Bob and Paul for sponsoring the 7th annual Ellen Cook Gaskin Memorial Art Show "Nature At It's Best" awards and to the Uwharrie Bank of Stanly for the honorable mention awards. Last but certainly not least I would like to thank the show judge, Beth Goldston for all of her comments about my piece "Geological Wonderland". It was truly a memorable evening for me! ~ James

Great work James!
