"Dynamic Sunset", by John Katerberg was the top award winner at ArtPrize 2024. 🏆👏⁠
⁠
Katerberg described his piece as an "experimental combination" of oil and acrylic paint, which allowed him to portray the Grand Haven pier scene on a metal canvas that originally began as a 104-pound sheet of brass and welded steel.⁠
