12th Annual Juried Art Salon

Today I finally submitted 3 pieces of art work to the Art Salon.

The Kingston Arts Council’s annual Juried Art Salon enables member artists from the region to enter up to three pieces in any medium and have their work judged by three professional artists. The winners and finalists are exhibited at the Wilson Room of the Kingston Public Library during the month of May.

I decided to submit the following art work:

 These pieces (Mixed-media 8 x 8 on canvas.), Curious and below, Timid are the first 2 of a series that I would like to continue working on in the future.  As you can see in the January posting, I was already working on these 2 canvases and I changed their colour hues dramatically.

I like them better now because the dark and light tones are more balanced.






The last art work submitted was difficult to capture in a good photograph.  A 48" x 12", this piece is also mixed-media with several photo transfers and collage of rope, japanese papers, silk papers and several layers of acrylic medium.
