THE DISPLAY WALL IS OPEN TO ANYTHING YOU’D LIKE TO HAVE HUNG.  YOU DO NOT NEED TO FOLLOW THE SUGGESTED PROMPT!

 

Unless otherwise noted or announced for a specific month, we will have pick up and drop off on the same day, the Thursday prior to the First Saturday of each month.  You must have picked up and dropped off by 2 PM that day.  Be sure your art is framed and wired properly!  A proper wiring example is at the front of the art room.  Pleaese watch for updates.  There might be date or time changes.

We will feature the Display Wall with examples of art made in All About Art classes and weekly open houses with hands-on activities.We’ll get to show our community what we’re doing and how they can join in the fun!

 

• February – The Art from the Creative Vision Show

 

• March---ALL CREATURES GREAT AND SMALL

We live amid incredible biodiversity.Let’s feature a wall full of the critters we see each day and those who are rare.NOPE—They do not have to be animals we have here in the Lowcountry.Terrestrial, aquatic and even extra-terrestrial will be welcomed!

 

• ​

How about using only one color?Yves Klein, Lucio Fantana, Ad Reinhardt, Kazimir Malevich, and Robert Holyhead all are known for doing monochormistic paintings.Let’s try that.Look them up, and then pick a color and go for it!

 

• May ---The Spring Art Show.After the show, any pieces that artist would like on the display wall will be moved there after the show.

 

• —A QUOTE THAT MOVES YOU

Many of us have special quotes that inspire or affirm us.Incorporate a quote into your painting, or interpret , within the art.You can even choose to type or write it out, and we will hang it next to your painting.

 

• July and August-WHAT YOU’RE WORKING ON. . .

If you’re trying a new medium, or perfecting an image, let’s share it with each other this summer.The hot, hot summer requires a wide and wonderful wall for us to all enjoy in the cool of the studio.Bring it all.The same pick up and drop off days in each month apply.

 

• September---INCORPORATE THE IMAGE!

Do you have a favorite photo or image that you have thought would look great in one of your paintings.Let’s try this!Adhere

a personal photo, an image from a comic book or magazine, or anything you want to your canvas or paper, and then incorporate it into an original painting.This was suggested by a member—and if you look on the internet, you will find some wonderful examples!

 

• October—SHADES OF BLUE

Black and White month was so popular (45 paintings displayed!) last year, that we’re trying it again….but with blue.  Paint something that is primarily some shade of blue…or if you prefer, with just a touch of blue.

 

• November—Fall Art Show art will be hung. 

 

• December – ANYTHING GOES

This seems to be a club favorite, so let’s do it again.  Artists can display traditional and non-traditional art forms, prints, giclee, fabric art---really just about anything goes! Collages with found objects that are securely fastened to a canvas will be accepted.  We will accommodate all art that can be hung on the wall.   Up to two pieces per artist, or if you have an oversized piece you want to display, please just bring one.  There will be a Featured Artist, but other than that, the whole wall will be used. 

 

Some things will stay the same: The Featured Artist will remain a monthly feature in its current location. Art from the All About Art Spring, Fall Art Shows, and Creative Vision will be displayed in the month after the show.  Things to remember:  Abstract and Digital art is welcomed each month.  Please, no AI generated art.  Flat canvases without frames will not be accepted.  The canvas must be framed, or be at least 1 3/8 “ with finished edges.  Unless otherwise noted, the size of the painting or paintings submitted may not exceed 1248 square inches.
