Rob and I have always enjoyed perusing art galleries. Two years ago Rob and I attended the Statewide Black & White Competition at the Eccles Community Arts Center in Ogden, Utah. Little did I know at the time that I would have my own piece showing in the gallery two years later! Rock on!
There were 302 works entered into the competition and 165 pieces were chosen to be included in the exhibition. The gallery held an artist reception and Rob and I went and viewed so many wonderful works of art. It just amazes me how much talent people possess!
Here’s the finished photo before I decided to enter it into the competition:
But since it was a black & white competition I needed to rework it a little. Then I cropped to an 8x10 and made a giclee canvas print. I decided on this bold, stark white frame in order to contrast with the grungy, depressing subject. I wanted the griminess to stand out.
The exhibit continues through March 27th. Free Admission.
