Q: Will my art be framed?
A: All 2-D pieces not on gallery-wrapped canvas will be matted for display. Artwork on gallery-wrapped canvas must be wired for hanging and 3-D pieces will be displayed on tables for viewing by the potential buyers.
Q: What do you mean by “dimensions”?
A: We are asking for the size of your finished, unframed piece. Please list dimensions as height x width x depth. Depth must only be included if your work is three-dimensional and is not necessary for 2-D pieces.
Q: Can I submit pieces that were previously submitted to Rodeo or VASE?
A: Yes, you may submit pieces previously submitted to other contests so long as they have already been returned to you.
Q: Should I sign my piece? Where?
A: Your pieces must be signed discreetly on the back or front, bottom right corner of the piece.
Q: What size should my piece be?
A: 2-D pieces should not exceed 18" x 24" inches; 3-D pieces should not exceed 36” high or 18” wide. There is no minimum size.
Q: How many pieces may I submit?
A: We recommend submitting your best five pieces of art but we will only select up to three of your pieces. You will submit entries through the NewSpring website. If you have any further questions, contact your teacher. Your teacher will notify students of accepted artwork.
