Clarification #2!
For the 6x6(x6) show each artist may submit a 6x6(x6) piece of their artwork.
There has been some confusion due to the way we've worded a sentence in the "Eligibility & Acceptance" section.
If you have a catalog listing you are eligible to submit a 6x6(x6)piece. For married couples or partners who collaborate/make their pieces together (therefore share a catalog listing) they are allowed only one 6x6(x6) piece (as they are listed as "one artist" in the catalog).
If you are sharing studio space with someone, GREAT! Each of you can submit a 6x6(x6) piece... One 6x6(x6) piece per catalog listing!
Questions? Have I confused you further? Give me a call! 544-9251
