Art Exhibit Submissions, March

In order to be seen, an artist must exhibit. Each exhibit risks rejection. If an artist is lucky or talented enough to be accepted into the exhibit there's still the risk of rejection by the public (translated into lack of sales).

So, this March, I've submitted to two different events. The first is an exhibition for the Falls Church Arts All-Member show, I know at least one piece will make it into the Falls Church All-Member show, hopefully two.

The second is a competition through Santa Fe Workshops, with the theme "Travels." This competition is my third attempt to get juried into one of the Workshops' competitions. The field is talented and fierce so I'm hopeful but bracing for rejection.

Included here are my five pieces submitted to the two events. Would love to know what you think of any or all of them.

Dawn Comes Early

 

Unable to sleep, I stop fighting for what I cannot have. 

 

The pre-dawn breeze through the open window is cold, 

Spring needs a winter coat this morning.

 

A mourning dove is huddled on the edge of the roof, 

and sings a cooing song...

calling the dawn.

 

Slowly, the world catches up and the light returns...

and with the light, glory.
