[Contemporary Realism] We have an exclusive episode today as we help announce the winner of The Bennett Prize at the Muskegon Museum of Art. This year's winner, and our guest for today's show, is Amy Werntz. Amy is a Dallas-based painter who has recently turned her attention to painting older subjects. Her paintings are rich with detail and full of humanity. She talks about her work, her studio, her subjects and what it was like hearing her name called as the winner of The Bennett Prize. Today's episode is sponsored by Michigan's Muskegon Museum of Art and The Bennett Prize, which celebrates women artists. To learn more about these two sponsors and their long-standing partnership in the art world, visit thebennettprize.org.
