If you have taken or taught a class at the Seattle Artist League in the last year, you are invited to submit up to three artworks to our online show. We can’t promise we’ll show every piece, but we will show at least one artwork per person.
This show is about you as an artist, so you are welcome to submit any of your works that you would like to share. Your artwork submission does not have to be from a class, but it does need to have been made in the last year.
We are open to media, including but not limited to: drawings, paintings, prints, digital artworks, photography, sculpture, etc.

2. PHOTOGRAPH. Take a quality photograph of your artwork. This means right side up, no tilt, sharp focus, corners square and cropped to the edge of the artwork, little-or-no glare, no shadows, brightly and evenly lit, no filters).
