Regarding "Resistance is Futile": 

"Pink, no power in the world can stop it.  Sugar and Spice are relentless and resistance against it is futile." - Kara Castro

"This work is masterfully executed, especially considering watercolor in this style, is a very unforgiving medium.  The artist reflects the softness yet intensity of the subject.  Children are complex subjects to capture.  This work succeeds in the "capture".  The composition of contrasting textures, hat, weavings and skin all work to make a very pleasing and somewhat mysterious painting.  The little cowgirl has a capital GIRL attitude.  Appropriate for a State Fair Show in the Capitol City."  - Betty Saletta, CA State Fair Fine Arts Competition Juror.

"...juror Betty Saletta selected Kara Castro's watercolor of a photograph of a refreshingly cranky little girl in a cowboy hat, which stands out from the rest of the entries in a category that usually tends toward corny, sentimental, middle-of-the-road offerings."  -Victoria Dalkey, Art Critic Sacramento Bee Correspondent
