Lt. Governor Becky Skillman announces the winners of the
2009 Hoosier Women Artists Competition

Charlene Marsh of Nashville is named a winner

Last week I unveiled the seven winners of my third annual Celebration of Hoosier Women Artists competition. Charlene Marsh of Nashville is one of the seven winners who will have her artwork, Sciscoe Creek, displayed in my office at the Statehouse for one year. Check out her piece and the other winners by visiting my Web site.

Thank you to the 103 artists who applied to the Celebration of Hoosier Women Artists competition. Like previous years it was a difficult decision. We received beautiful pieces of art from women throughout the state. Indiana is home to incredibly talented women who are making a big impact in their communities. Women of many professions, including artists, are economically strengthening their communities.

When Governor Daniels and I moved into the Statehouse in 2005, my office was decorated with portraits of past governors. As important as they are to our history, I thought it would be fitting to use that wall space to honor living Hoosiers as well. As part of Women's History Month, my office began the process of creating a competition that would showcase women artists.

We've enjoyed two years of beautiful artwork now and received countless compliments on the diversity and creativity hanging on the walls of my office. I'm looking forward to the great things we'll hear this year from Hoosiers who stop by and admire what great talent our women artists have.

Sincerely,

Becky Skillman
