IMAGE Art Show 2012

The IMAGE Show is this weekend, ending today at four.  It's an annual thing for the East Central Minnesota region, hosted by a different arts group or organization every year.  This year the KCAA was running things, meaning that I should have been involved in planning and execution.  Unfortunately I've been a bit of a deadbeat member for the past year, what with reproducing and all.

Anyone can submit one piece, which results in a phenomenally varied show.  This was my contribution:

Sheep Skull, E.Belkholm
I won second place in the drawing category, hot damn!  It kind of surprised me, because I thought I was a little lacking, compositionally.  If I had had more time I would have like to make it a legit-ass still life with, you know, more than one thing in it.

Here's my submission from last year, which won first in drawing and the purchase award.

Study in Sienna, E.Belkholm
And from the years before, which didn't win squat.

Still Life with Onions, E.Belkholm

Stone's Philosopher, E.Belkholm
If you can't go check out the show in person, there are a few photos of it here and here.

The Husband desperately wanted to buy several pieces, all of which were listed as not for sale.  He's still grumpy about it.
