How were winners chosen for the thirteenforhalloween art contest? Did it have anything to do with the number of votes or viewings per picture or were winners picked randomly by M. Ryan Taylor?Thank you,
Lakisha Jones
No, it was not by popularity contest nor random selection.The foremost factor that was considered was skill displayed. Also, use of materials, composition, and creativity were considered.
I spent quite some time going through the artwork submitted and analyzing it based on this criteria. I then presented my thoughts to someone else, whose opinion I trust, and we chose the works above.
