Art Gallery Online presents:
Second Annual Portrait Art
Competition and Exhibition
Call for Artists - Deadline:
April 30th
"A good
portrait ought to tell something of the subject’s past and/or suggest
something of his future.”
- Bill
Brandt (photographer)
A portrait has evolved throughout art history--sculptures,
religious figures, and paintings of the wealthy and majestic, to the
30-minute poses when photography was first invented. Portraits can go
beyond just the face or the subject’s body. Clothing, objects, and
atmosphere can capture the essence of a person. Portraits range from
traditional poses to contemporary concepts. So what makes your portrait
stand out from all the rest? Be creative and think outside the box!
