It's that time again. The first art show I ever entered was in my home state of Minnesota, and even though I don't live there anymore, I still enter each year.
Competition is getting quite intense, so I could use some help deciding on what to enter.
If your willing, could you please select your top 6 from the following collection? Feel free to post numbers here, or leave comments on the smugmug site. (I can't seem to get info on the thumbs up/thumbs down option in smugmug, so I'd avoid that feature.)
Looking from my phone - can't go wrong with any of those. Fabulous collection! Good luck. You'll run the ribbons again, I'm sure!
nonono -- this Minnesota arts show is much, much more difficult. I'm lucky if I get one or two accepted, and I haven't ribboned in years. That's why I'm asking for help. :)
Will the show be juried or or will the public be voting? Some images will do better in a public voting contest and others will do better in a juried contest.
Any more information about the show? I'd be interested in seeing the results. I don't have anything I'd enter into a contest - yet.
It's a juried art show that includes paintings, drawings, digital and hand-pulled prints, mixed media,
fiber, batik, photography (not digitally altered or photo of
work in another medium), digital (including digitally altered
photographs), ceramics, glass, sculpture, and sequential art.
A panel selects about 500 pieces from the entries, and then the juror narrows it down to about 210 pieces.
There are specific awards -- river award, tells a story, best photo, best painting, but other than a few special awards, there really aren't categories. Kind of a free-for-all.
