TOP PRIZE: Jerry Cable of Stockton was awarded the top prize for his painting “Time Out” at Hamilton Jewelers’ “The Art of Time Exhibition,” presented in conjunction with its 20th annual Watch Fair event on June 1. Cable is shown with Hamilton Vice President Donna Bouchard.

Hamilton Jewelers, Princeton Palm Beach, has announced that Jerry Cable of Stockton is the winner of the $2,500 prize awarded during “The Art of Time Exhibition” held on Saturday, June 1. Designed to raise awareness of arts in the Princeton community, the show gave artists the opportunity to have their work seen by thousands during Hamilton’s 20th annual Watch Fair event. The exhibit benefited the Arts Council of Princeton.

“Hamilton is so pleased to award Jerry Cable for his wonderful piece, Time Out,” says Hamilton Vice President Donna Bouchard. “The Watch Fair/The Art of Time Exhibition was a tremendous success, and we are grateful to all the artists who contributed their work for this event.”

“When I received the invitation to participate in the exhibit, I knew immediately this was the image to submit,” says Cable. “I am honored that the panel of judges awarded my painting the top prize.”

Born in northeastern Ohio, Cable discovered his passion for art at an early age. Under the tutelage of a private instructor, he set out to define himself as an artist. He has since gone on to win numerous awards and has exhibited in more than 50 juried exhibitions including The Philadelphia Sketch Club and The National Art Club of New York City, along with more than 35 solo exhibitions in Philadelphia, New Jersey, Maine, Connecticut, and Ohio.
