Fill the Frame” is a completely new kind of competition that has captured the enthusiasm of the artistic community. The Gallery has provided identicalframes to each artist (over 100 artists have entered) to fill as they desire with their creations. Visitors will be intrigued to see our walls adorned with works confined to identical 14X 21” parameters, yet beautifully individualized with a vast array of media, subjects and styles.

The Juror for this exhibition is Nora Venturelli, Instructor of Drawing and Painting as Adjunct Professor at the University of Michigan and EasternMichigan University since 1997.
Our neighbors at the Woodward Avenue Brewers (WAB) and Emory Restaurants will graciously provide refreshments and discount dining coupons to reception attendees, for a complete evening of art and food.

Attachments are a digital photograph, “Dreaming of You”, by Mariko Brenner of Farmington Hills, a portrait in Conte Pencil ,“Contemplation”, by Barb Eko Murphy of Northville, and a dry point print with watercolor, “Waiting for Spring”, by Judy St. John, all presented in identical 14”x 20” frames.
