All members of New England Light Painters (NELP) and other local photographers are invited to submit their work for this special group exhibit at Middlesex Bank in Natick. All of our exhibits at the Middlesex Bank are under the auspices of The Center for Arts in Natick (TCAN).
The theme for this exhibit is black & white photography. Any image that is entirely or substantially black & white may be submitted. Both conventional photographs and manipulated creative photographs are welcome. We would like to feature multiple works per artist, so consider submitting works of a similar sub-theme or grouping. Also, keep in mind this is a public venue so please use discretion when selecting your subject matter for submission.
Your submission for judging will be by email. Images must be in JPG format, no larger than 1200 pixels wide/high. File size must be under 500KB (use sufficient compression). Your image file name should be in the format:
<YourName>-<ImageTitle>-#W-#H-
The #W and #H are the width and height of the framed photograph (including the frame), in inches; price in whole dollars (no cents) or NFS if print is not for sale. For example, JohnPublic-MyPiano-20W-16H-
All accepted photographs submitted for hanging must be framed and wired (no sawtooth). Please make sure your framed artwork is labeled with your name, preferred contact information (email and/or phone number), artwork title and price, and make sure the exhibit organizer has all of this information.
