Our 2022 Judge – Kristy Hoover
Our 2022 Spring Art Show Judge
Kristy (Askins) Hoover is an award winning multi-media artist located in Watertown, NY. She received both her BFA and her MA in Studio Art at SUNY Oswego, where she currently teaches as an Adjunct Drawing Professor. She also is an active artist, displaying her work at and managing the 3-D Studio at Orion Art Gallery and Studio where she teaches numerous fine art classes, organizes art festivals and installs featured exhibitions. Her large scale Installation and other works have been on display at various venues including the New York State Museum in Albany and the Rochester Contemporary Art Center. Her most recent figurative drawings and ceramic sculptures are intended to inspire emotion and connect with the viewer on a personal, emotional level while relating to past and present social issues. While her pottery work is both decorative and utilitarian, some are slightly obscene yet relatable. Completely opposite from her hyper realistic large scale drawings, she has a large collection of abstract prints and paintings.
Artist Statement- As an artist, I believe it is my duty to use my voice, not only connect with the viewers on an emotional level, but to also give a voice to others through my works.
