Drawn to Lines (SAQA Virtual Gallery) - Call for Entry

SAQA
Virtual Call
Call for Entry Deadline

Bauhaus artist, Paul Klee once said, “A line is a dot that went for a walk.” One of the elements of design, line shows up in artworks in many different ways. How do you use lines in your work to express, create and connect? Lines can draw the viewer in and guide their eye across the art. Conveying emotion, ideas and physical shapes, they can be thick, thin, straight, curved or jagged. A line might be indicated with quilting, a piece of yarn, become a horizon or even be implied. 

THIS CALL IS FOR AN ONLINE GALLERY

  • Open to all SAQA members
  • No entry fee (up to 3 entries per artist)
  • No size or date restrictions

Because this is a virtual exhibition, it is critical that submitted images be of the best possible quality: in focus, with clear details, and following SAQA's digital image requirements. Please read Virtual Gallery Submission Guidelines for more details. If you have any questions, please contact us at calls@saqa.art.

Common image errors include:

  • Images that are out of focus or too small, 
  • Cropping images too closely on the full-view image. All edges of the artwork must be visible along with a small amount of contrasting background.
  • Distracting elements in the image background - we don't want to see design walls, rugs, your studio, hanging clips, hands, pins, etc. 

Don't miss this! We have prepared a handy resource of Tips for Successful Art Quilt Photography.
