I entered the Empire Ranch Western Art Show and Sale this month and recieved a response in the mail today. I had my 11 year old son read it to me. With the first word being "Congratulations", my first thought was that he was pulling my leg. I am pleased to announce that two of my entries have been selected for the show!!! I will post more on the show soon.
About the Empire 100 Western Art Show & Sale
The "Empire 100" Western Art Show & Sale showcases outstanding, original paintings and bronzes by renowned and emerging artists from across the United States.
Each artwork has been selected through a jury process that examines hundreds of submissions to offer an unparalleled selection of Western art. Ranging from impressionistic and traditional Western art subjects, to plein air landscapes, to colorful still lifes, the show offers something for every collector.
The Empire 100 Western Art Show & Sale is a "not-to-be-missed" event for the serious collector, or for the individual who wants the opportunity to see and purchase superb Western art. The show also features entries of "Empire-inspired art" - artwork inspired by images and scenes at the historic Empire Ranch.
