CALL for ARTISTS - LGAA Open Juried Show - 2009

The Los Gatos Art Association announces a CALL FOR ARTISTS for Los Gatos Art Association 25th Annual Open Juried Show, a California statewide competition, held April 2 to May 1, 2009. Up to $7500 in awards. David Ogle, sculptor and monoprint artist; Dale Laitinen, watercolor artist; and Kenney Mencher, oil and dry media figure artist are the jurors. Randall Sexton, plein air artist, is the Awards Juror.

Open to 2-D paintings of all media, mixed media, printmaking, digital and film photography, and 3-D sculpture. This competition is open to all artists (18 years old or older) who are residents of California. Works must be original, completed within the last three years, available for sale, and not previously shown in Los Gatos Museums.

ONLY DIGITAL ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED.

As a past President of the Los Gatos Art Association, and current Member Juried Show Chair, I think that this will be the best Open Juried Show ever.

First Place in the Art Museum Show

My sculpture Vein won first place in the Los Gatos Art Association - Juried Member Show. The best part is that at the reception on Sunday the 9th at the Museum, one of my previous clients bought it!
