Society of Scottish Artists - two pictures accepted for 130 years of the S.S.A. Annual Exhibition

 *

 

These two paintings have been selected for the S.S.A. annual exhibition in Edinburgh.

It runs  from 17 December 2022 to 10 January, 2023.

I will also send in three paintings for their 30 x 30 cm rack.

 

Melipeuco, a road, an itinerant, oil on card, 29 x 23.5 cm

 

Myrtle and Dekalb, oil on card, 16 x 17 cm

Woodland, Praia Moçambique - detail

 

 

 

My four entries into the Society of Scottish Artists were rejected this year- despite having been accepted in previous years. And I'm a "Professional" member of the Society.

 This underscores the arbitrariness of these selection processes, since the pieces sent in were no worse in quality than in previous years- at least not all of them, and there were no new entry specifications implying a change in criteria.
