In this video David Goatley introduces himself and tells us a little about the process of entering your art in juried exhibitions and what he looks for as a juror.
Ah the mystery of the juried show. I accidentally walked in on a jurying process today which led me here as I wondered how it works. Of course it is totally subjective but I like the advice given here especially about his looking for that "surprise" painting. Also I always keep a photo of the extremely subpar painting of a black cat that was accepted and I could never understand why it was accepted. Of course that is just my subjective opinion haha. Thank you David for shedding some light on an otherwise very secretive process.
