Brandon Gallery seeks entries for 'Dog Days of Summer 2017'

FALLBROOK – Brandon Gallery is seeking entries for “Dog Days of Summer 2017”, an open judged show Aug. 1-26. This show celebrates all of the animal companions that are a part of families – dogs, cats, horses, birds, goats and fish. All mediums welcome.

Darlene Katz will be judging the show. Katz's award winning work is displayed in Southern California galleries and national juried shows, as well as in private and corporate collections. She describes herself as a scientist by training and an artist by choice, and she believes similar skills are required for both.

Knowledge of technical information and creativity are both required to develop her work and achieve her artistic goals – to preserve a unique moment in time. She does not limit herself to one particular approach in her paintings, but her unique style is recognizable in all of her work. Darlene lives and works in Southern California.

Work may be any medium. Two-dimensional work may be no larger than 30 inches on any side, including frame, and weigh no more than 25 pounds. Wire hangers only, with ends wrapped for safety. Three-dimensional work may be no larger than 18 inches on any side, weigh no more than 25 pounds and must have a stable base when set on a flat surface.

Important Information: Delivery of artwork to gallery: July 21 and July 22. Reception: Aug. 6, 2 to 5 p.m. Pick up unsold work: Aug. 26 after 1 p.m. $20 for one entry, $30 for two entries, $40 for three entries and $50 for four entries. Awards presented are: Best of Show ($150), First Place ($100), Second Place ($75), Third Place ($50), and People’s Choice Award ($50).
