Eastern Open Postcards

 

If you submit artworks to the Eastern Open Exhibition you have the option of also entering their postcard art exhibition.

 

I had such high expectations but have discovered that I really CAN NOT paint small. I wanted colour, excitement, variation, movement,........ huh! These are tiny, scrappy versions of bigger paintings. I am very cross with myself. No imagination.

Eastern Open

'Out To Lunch'   24" x 24"  Oil

'Swing Jump'  60" x 36"  Oil

These are as good as they are going to get! I ran out of time. I had it in my head the submission day was 28th March.......wrong! 4th or 5th March it should be. Happily, they telephoned to ask if I wanted to withdraw and gave me until Friday, when I made my excuses. I was delighted, and surprised to be given leaway, but it means I don't have the extra week to tiddle them up. They weren't framed yesterday! The third one I am submitting is still in progress! Is this what they call by the skin of your teeth?

I will post details of the exhibition nearer the time and whether I get any accepted.
