Drawing of pirate wins at Chalk Walk Art Festival

Nate Baranowski of Street Canvas Design won the judges' grand prize and the people's choice award Sunday for his chalk drawing of a pirate at the Chalk Walk Art Festival in Tampa.
The annual festival, hosted by the Tampa Bay Businesses for Culture and the Arts, features chalk artists sponsored by local businesses.
Though Baranowski won top honors, another chalk artist drew attention for his poignant creativity.
Ron Hawkins used a dead butterfly as the finishing touch on his Peacock in the Pond chalk drawing. Hawkins said the butterfly landed next to him Saturday night as he worked on the drawing.
"I thought it was just cold and would come back to life, but it just died," said Hawkins. "So now it's part of my artwork."
