Deadlines

Today is the deadline for application to the Lincoln Fine Art Fair - People ask why do you care about Lincoln

There are a few reasons that make the Lincoln art fair a good one - First a nice grassy, shade filled park as a setting . Second the staff of the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce are great hosts ( They pre-sale Art Bucks to members who then flood the market with cash ) Thirdly the balloon show brings in a substantial out of town crowd ( 70 or so balloon crews from around the country - with five or six couples on a crew - do you know how much money you have to have to travel around the country chasing balloons)


In two weeks is the deadline for the Peoria Art Guilds -Fine Art Fair . This year will be the greatest chance for realist painters in years.

Having set on the jury of the show the procedure is this - The previous years award winners applications are shown to the jury - to give them an idea of what the Fair is about. With these award winners on their minds they then start judging the new applications on a one to seven scale with no fours . Your combined total points of the seven or so judges is your score.

They cool part for realist painters is that last year at the show - most of the awards where given to painters - Including the best of show.

So if you are a painter and you have always wanted to get into the Peoria Show - You will never nave a better chance - go to www.zapplication.org and get moving - you only have two weeks!
