Prospectus
This show is open to Juried Members of EBSQ Plus.
The world is different when seen as a reflection. Regardless of the surface it that reflects, the other worldly view of our environment never ceases to captivate. Artists have long applied their skill and talent to capturing these moments with varying degrees of success. It appears simple to do, yet often proves to be a challenge. Choose a silver teapot, a mirror, your glass of water or whatever catches your eye and imagination and recreate the reflection you see.
A statement should be included with each piece that will inform the viewer about your work and why you were motivated to create it. Artists are encouraged to add information on media and process used to produce their pieces. It is also suggested that multiple images be included, particularly of fine detail.
This is a Juried Show
Juror: Jeff and Leslie Cohen
Juror's Statement
Reflections in art serve as a reminder that all art is a reflection of the artist's vision. They seem so magical when rendered by a skilled hand. The trick is observation: paint what you actually see, not how you think it should look. But if the artist surrenders a little of the objective eye to the subjective mind, some really wonderful things can happen, too!
