I submitted my entry for the WISTERIA SHOW a few days ago......
but now I'm rather confused....Are ALL the FLOWER OF THE MONTH SHOWS for ALL EBSQ MEMBERS, or for JURIED MEMBERS ONLY...?
I figured that my entry would have been rejected if it were for juried members only, but do the shows have a way of distinguishing the difference in entrants.......?

Mary,

You did indeed enter the correct show.

http://www.ebsqart.com/Artists/cmd_11060_profile_shows.htm

Also, to answer the other part of the question, since you're not yet a juried member, you wouldn't have the ability to enter a juried show (the option would not show up for you).

On another note, I'd suggest cropping the extraneous white space from around your piece; it really detracts from the presentation and your art is getting "lost" so to speak. (that's not an official pronouncement, simply a suggestion, btw!!)

Cheers,
-Amie

Amie, Thanks for the feedback......I thought about the white border the other day, but have been clicking on so many other buttons, haven't had a chance to get back to it...but I will definitely do that right now...before it is too late...thanks

Thanks, Vfem...I remember you from when we were both lurking around so late the other night ...

.....I was trying to get my thread in so I could proof-read it 'bout 20 times before any one saw my bad grammer flaws, but even after all my 'proof-reading',I still made some major boo-boos.....

.........guess I'd better get used to doing the best I can with quick replies......oh, and that's one of the first watercolors that I've ever done...I'll get better as I go, I think...I absolutely love working with it..I've always been soooo afraid of it 'til recently......just still need to learn a few things.....wasn't it your thread I read that mentioned something about wanting to learn some techniques on how to paint or draw human anatomy....?

Amie, I'm really sorry that I even bothered to bother anyone about that entry ........it's just that I was reading this thread.....
Don't forget--these shows available for pre-entry and I guess I got confused when I saw the FOTM on the bottom of the thread page....but that's what happens when a newbie is nervous about a show...&&&& reads things out of context, huh...?...I thought that I had read that it was for all members before I read the thread...just couldn't remember where I was supposed to have read it....Anyway, I'm kinda glad that I got confused on that issue, otherwise I would have missed out on your reminder.. if you hadn't mentioned the 'Garish' white issue, I probably would have forgotten all about it..(pressure, not just from the show, but trying to get about a third of my approx. 300 originals sent off to Washington for copyright, so I can offer to sell them or prints from them )....but I did fix that, right after I talked to you, on the main image & the details......Sometimes we can focus on entering or winning so much that we tend to lose sight of what it takes to enter, or win.....But, again, I thank you........
