Saturday October 4th three artists competed in this year's HartPrize Photo Realism Contest. Photorealism is an art movement where paintings are created to appear almost indistinguishable from an actual photograph, utilizing a photograph as the primary visual reference. The artists had a choice between two scenic Hart photos and ended up all choosing the same photo. Your vote will help determine 1-3rd place. Results will be announced November 3rd on the City of Hart Facebook page.
