Additionally, SVAC congratulates the Award winners from the exhibit. Lynn Toneri won the Peoples’ Choice Award with her painting titled, “Into the Wind” which is one of six paintings in a series which uses ravens as her subject. “Nothing to do with folklore, just my fascination with their comical behavior,” Toneri says of her attraction to ravens. “The colors reflected from the light on their feathers gave me an endless opportunity to portray their character.”

Craig states, “The obscure symbols hidden in the painting embody the myriad life forms in various stages as they emerge from the darkness toward the light. Traces of gold symbolize the ropes and ladders guiding them to their final path.”

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
