Recieving for Fine Art Show

Today I helped at the fix-it table at the Fine Art Show Recieving. Not much to fix though. Sheryl was worried a week ago that there would not be many entrants. Well, did everyone fool her! Over 220 pieces of beautiful art were recieved today! We have them hanging from the ceiling to the floor (well, almost). There can only be 140 pieces accepted to hang for the show, so the "Show - down" is tomorrow.

The Juror is Claire Verbiest, signature member of several national art societies, watercolor and pastel class instructor, workshop instructor in US, Canada, Europe, and art show juror for 10+ years, has art work in “Splash 4”, The Best of Watercolor Painting, The Best of Portrait Painting, and The Best of Pastel. She will be making the decisions on who stays up and who goes home.... all the art is beautiful so I would hate to be the juror. It will be interesting how she makes the decisions.

I am not hopeful of keeping anything in the show, but who knows.

The whole thing is a big job and my kudos go to Sheryl and Valery for all their work!
