Welcome to day 2 of my new blog on all things art.  Last night I went to the Elmhurst Artist's Guild summer member show's reception, in which I have a painting in the show (see below).  There was a good variety of styles in the show, from abstract to representational to non-representational.  Portraits, still life, landscapes were the most abundant subject matter.  Some figurative with collage was present, including my own.  Awards were given out, mine didn't make the cut, but it did not bother me.  Art is very subjective and the judge only expresses his subjective likes onto the award winners.  Below is my painting titled Outside of Time # 1.  The medium is acrylic paint and collage on 24" X 24" stretched canvas.
