ROY G. BIV
April 20 - June 9 , 2018
Let’s start our spring season with explosions of color! We’re looking for art in any 2-D medium that expresses quality color composition. We learned this acronym as children to recall the rainbow spectrum; red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. For this open (no theme) competition, artists are encouraged to share their artistic vision using a concentration of color. One color or a multitude of colors meets the criteria. Artwork can range from realism to surrealism to abstraction and can be any subject matter and any of the accepted media.
Here's how to enter:
Entry fee is $25 for up to 2 images. To pay the entry fee, click here.
