  • Paintings should have been completed within the last five years.
  • Paintings must not have objectionable content to the venue or show chairs.  WWG reserves the right to refuse any work that does not conform to the Entry Requirements. The library is a child-friendly environment.
  • All accepted paintings must remain hanging for the entire duration of the exhibition. Buyers may pick up purchased paintings only after the exhibit closes. Sales shall be handled by the individual artist. Please inform the show chair of a sale.
  • As an entrant, you are agreeing to the stated rules and requirements and give permission to WWG to photograph and display your accepted paintings on the WWG website and/or promotional materials.

Media   Acceptable painting media include watercolor, gouache, acrylics, egg tempera and casein paints as well as watercolor pencils, crayons and water-soluble inks.  Mediums, gels, gesso and other painting supplements may be used. Pastels, gold and silver leafing are acceptable as long as water-based media is dominant.  No water-based oils. Collage is acceptable using hand-painted white papers painted with water-based media.
Substrates   Acceptable papers/supports include cotton rag, oriental papers, synthetic paper (YUPO), and any kind of coated paper or board.  No commercially colored or printed papers allowed.
 
Framing Requirements : Presentation is as important as the painting. Frames, mats, acrylic, backing and wiring must be clean, neat, secure and follow these guidelines:
  • Mats, if used, can be of ANY COLOR desired.
  • ALL frames are acceptable for this exhibit. The maximum frame size is 42 inches in either direction due to venue space and weight.
  • Every painting must be under acrylic (like Plexiglas).  No glass due to safety and venue rules.
  • Paintings must be wired from side-to-side with screw-in hangers. D-rings recommended. No saw-tooth hangers. When hanging, stretched wire should be 3" from the top of the frame.
  • Labels from this prospectus should be placed in the upper left corner on the back of each painting. Select here to Print Labels 
 
Due care will be used in handling the artist's work.  WWG will not be responsible for the theft, loss or damage to works submitted.
