EBSQ Juried Artists announced for Spring 2009

We just completed our spring portfolio review for EJA.  EBSQ is therefore pleased to announce the newest members of EBSQ Juried artists:

Our applicants were juried blindly (ie, the jurors did not know whose work they were reviewing) based on the following criteria:

  • quality of the art presented
  • professional presentation of the work presented (this includes both jpeg quality as well as the quality of the supporting artist statement included with each piece)
  • evidence of a cohesive, mature body of work based on the 5 pieces submitted per artist.

 

Out of 27 applicants, 15 artists received a 2/3 majority or greater admittance vote from our pool of 15 volunteer peer jurors. It’s not an easy process for either the peer jurors or the applicants, so our thanks and congratulations go out to every single individual who participated in the process.

The next opportunity to apply is October 2009.

-Amie Gillingham
