    Posted Monday August 25 2014 at 10:38 pm in Call For Artists

    VSA Artist Opportunities

    Call for Entry: THE SEED
    Deadline: September 1, 2014
    THE SEED is for artists working in a variety of mediums.  Each artist will be given one dream, the same dream, to read and use as a inspiration in creating one piece of art.  The dream, THE SEED, is simply a unified launching pad that will serve as an underlying theme for the show.  Artist can interpret/incorporate THE SEED as they see fit in the creation of their work.  All the works will be exhibited together, in one space.  This is an opportunity for artists to work along side other talented individuals, your work standing alone and as part of the whole - creating a venue for cross exposure as well as collaboration.

    Call for Entry: Lore Degenstein Gallery Sixth Annual Figurative Drawing and Painting Exhibition
    Deadline: September 2, 2014
    Lore Degenstein Gallery hosts a juried visual art competition and exhibition open to two-dimensional figurative artists (referencing the human figure), working in painting, drawing, or printmaking, who are over the age of 18.  This year's juror is Pamela Wilson, a figurative artist and art educator living and working in Santa Barbara, California.  Wilson will select the works in the exhibition and announce the awards ($5,000) at the exhibition opening reception.
