On the last morning of the Frederick Festival of the Arts, the festival coordinators throw a really nice breakfast for the artists. During the breakfast, the coordinators award prizes and ribbons to the artists for excellence in each medium, Judges Choice and Best of Show. This year’s Best of Show winner was awarded to a truly amazing artist. John Petrey of Orlando, Florida. John is a mixed media sculpture artist who creates truly amazing 3D sculptures of dresses in a variety of unusual materials including vintage French maps and dressmaker patterns, roofing tiles and bottle caps. This picture from the festival web site no where near does this guy’s work justice. If you get the chance, zip on over to the Festival web site to check out John Petrey and the 2006 winners.
