Last year, the NJSBF received 90 submissions for the show from 32 artists working in a variety of mediums, including sculpture, wood carving, photography, oils, watercolor, pastels, pen and ink, as well as mixed media.
Ryan Stark Lilienthal placed first with his painting “Small World Coffee on Town.” Lilienthal’s painting “Tear Sheet” placed third in last year’s show.
“I have found practicing law to be a meaningful way to engage in, and to understand, the lives of others from all walks of life,” Lilienthal said. “In painting, I seek a process that awakens me in a similar way—to see the people and world around me.”
