This Year’s Enchanted Living Award Winner: Margo Selski

Read about artist Margo Selski's Summer Goddess, winner of the Enchanted Living Award in the Art Renewal Center’s 16th International ARC Salon Competition. Selski shares insights about her creative process and inspiration, including her Southern Gothic upbringing and fascination with fairy tales and mythology. Her work features surreal and magical realistic oil paintings of women in ornate garments and armor, oversized rabbits in oxford wing-tip shoes, insects on leashes, and young lady underwater gardening societies. Selski also discusses her experimental technique of planned pentimento, intentionally hiding images and words under thin opaque layers of handmade oil paint, which reveal themselves over time.
