Theme: With the Pandemic windows and looking through them out at the world has taken on a special meaning. Let’s focus on all the gorgeous vistas people could see in this area by painting them.
Paintings requirements:
- Paintings are to be completed primarily en plein air or be plein air inspired studio pieces
- They may not have been exhibited in a prior MBPAPA show

Please note: In addition to the usual information on the back of your painting each piece should have a removable label on the Front of each work with title and name of artist. These “stickies” will be removed once the wall labels are up.
Sales : PG Art Center will receive a 40% commission of sales price on all pieces sold. So please take that into account when you price your entries.
Image Submission: This is a juried exhibit. Each artist may submit a maximum of 3 digital images to "onlinejuriedshows.com" for the jury selection process.
