Your beautiful artwork deserves to look it's best! Is this YOU?
"I am one of three jurors... Artists, please look at the photo you are sending!!! Is it in focus? Is there a light reflecting off the surface? Are the colors washed out? There are a lot of entries. I am going to choose the art with qualities I can see instead of the qualities I think MIGHT be in your bad photo."
If so - then you NEED this workshop! To learn more go to ChathamArtsitsGuild.org. Or send an email to ChathamArtists@gmail.com to request more information.
