Just wanted to give Kingston artists a heads up about the Salon Prize Juried exhibition. Sounds like a great opportunity to get your work seen in Kingston. Below are the details and a link to the website.
About Salon Prize
The birth of The Salon Prize came from Cleah Bunting’s overwhelming desire to help out other artists in their own working lives. The prize was originally done in association with The Kingston School of Art–however due to the demands of the growing contest–the competition out grew the school.
Cleah’s intentions with the competition is to provide not only prizes, but also opportunities for artists to showcase their work. This prize is about the image presented to us (judges)…meaning we are not concerned with current artwork/styles, the artists reputation, nor where they stand in the community. As a show–we are looking for images that evoke and capture our audience–that are not only acts of brilliance but will also encourage creative growth amongst many of the artists whom visit the show.
I believe strongly in Kingston’s creative community–and with pleasure feel it necessary to show my respect to other artists by allowing them a voice through this project. This contest is all about “What is best for the image……”
I would like to thank Kingston’s community support for allowing this prize to thrive well into it’s second year–for we could not have done it without you.
And we wish every entrant the best success!!
“Happy Painting”–Ted Seth Jacobs.
