  Carol Ferony is JazzFest 2005 poster Contest Winner

Pastel artist Carol Ferony of Gulf Breeze is the winner of the JazzFest 2005 poster contest, announced Larry Beall co-chair of the JazzFest poster committee. Said Beall,” We were pleased to receive excellent entries for the 2005 JazzFest poster. Ms. Ferony’s entry was chosen because it best portrayed a Pensacola musical theme. Honorable mention went to the following artists:  Darryl Hooks, James Matthew Humphrey and Robin E. Stone.  Titles for their entries, respectively were “ Jazzin’ Sunsets and Cool Nights at the Square,” Jazz Revival” and “ A Jazz Beach Fantasy.”

Judges for the Poster Contest, all Jazz Society members, were artists Hazel Shiell, Bob Gray and retired economics professor Larry Beall.

Beall remarked, “ It was unusual that Ms. Ferony also won the poster contest for Great Gulf Coast Arts Festival for 2004.  We had a similar situation in 2001 when Pace graphic artist Robert Towson won back-to-back honors with Pensacola JazzFest and GGAF.  It is also of interest that both Ms. Ferony and Mr. Towson are repeat winners for the JazzFest poster contest.  Towson won JazzFest contests for 2001 and 2004.  Ms. Ferony won for 2002 and 2005.  Also of interest, Ms. Ferony’s entries were the only pastel entries we have had since the contest began for the 2001 JazzFest.”

Carol Ferony and her husband moved to the Gulf Coast area five years ago from upstate New York.  She is a member artist at J. Adams Gallery at Seaside, Florida.  She has been the winner of other poster contests including Okaloosa on Ice 2004,  ArtsQuest 2004 (Santa Rosa Beach) and Destin Festival of the Arts 2003.
