The winning artwork was designed by 22-year-old Brooklyn Payne, a Calgary resident who recently graduated from the Alberta University of Arts. They elected to focus on the artistry of the Stampede Showriders.
"My first inspiration was the idea of community, which is so central to the Calgary Stampede," explained Payne. "The second was the image of the Showriders. There's something theatrical about them – they put on performances all throughout Stampede, and wear a quite visually striking ensemble that I really wanted to try my hand at painting.
