Tuesday Morning Art Group
- We will continue to introduce each other to new artists
Once a month, not once a week
- We will have a weekly experiment
Here is a link to Amazon's page for the book we will be using: "Mastering Color and Design in Watercolor" by Christopher Schink. . It was a book in Kay's class library and looks good for those just starting out and those that can use reminders of the important basics.
- Watching instructional DVD's
Avelina has volunteered her home as a gathering spot for watching watercolor tutorials or related subjects. No date has been scheduled yet, but it will occur at the usual Tuesday 10 am time. She lives in the Diamond Heights area
NOTE:
- Participants have a choice of creating new paintings each month and/or each week, relating to the artist or experiment, if they want. It is not mandatory.
- Participants can show artwork inspired by other means and talk about how it relates to the current topics.
- Participants can show artwork that does not relate to any of the ongoing topics
- Participants can show themselves and soak in the good.
 
Call for Entries
STUDIO Gallery
1641 Pacific Avenue (between Polk & Van Ness), San Francisco, CA  94109  415-931-3130
STUDIO Gallery in San Francisco is looking for artists to participate in our annual juried show of small works, which starts November 12, 2015. The show, titled tiny, will consist of work under a certain size (7" x 7" x 7", including any frame) and under a certain price ($500 retail). We are interested in any 2D or 3D media (paintings, prints, ceramics, glass, metal, mixed media, sculpture, etc.).  The gallery shows only local artists, so only work from artists in the greater San Francisco Bay Area will be considered.  If you have work that you think would be a good fit for the show, you have two options:
 
1. Email us at Art@STUDIOGallerySF.com and send us a link to an on-line site where we can view photos of your work.  Indicate 2-3 specific pieces you think are a fit for the show and where to find them on the site.  Be sure to include the title, medium, dimensions and suggested retail price for each piece, either in your note or on the site.  (Sorry, we aren't going to "friend" you or sign up for some service in order to look at your pictures.)

2. Email us at Art@STUDIOGallerySF.com with 2-3 low-resolution (72dpi) photos of your work in jpg format; total attachments should not exceed 500K. Be sure to include the title, medium, dimensions and suggested retail price for each piece in your note.

We will be looking at work for tiny until about Monday, November 2nd or until the show fills up. We suggest that you contact us soon if you're interested in participating since we usually get a lot of interest in the show.  Feel free to forward this on to other artists if you like.  
A couple of tips:
  • If you want to see the kind of work that we accept for the show, look at the pieces from last year's tiny show on our site.  Click here or here or to see images from last year's show.  
  • If we feel that your work is a potential fit for the show we will contact you to set up an appointment after October 5th to see your pieces in person. Please don't show up at the gallery unannounced with work for us to review.
  • We generally get hundreds of submissions, so please give us some time to get back to you.  
  • Feel free to email us at Art@STUDIOGallerySF.com if you have questions.   
All the best, Jennifer + Rab
