Small Image Show - February 2019
by Sue Peacock
The Verdugo Hills Art Association's Small Image Show is currently on display at the Pasadena Central Library, 285 E. Walnut Ave, Pasadena. With its deep lockable display cabinets we are able to offer our artists in the 3D/sculpture field an opportunity to show those skills, as well as display our paintings and photography. For this exhibit our art was adjudicated in the categories of Representational, Non-Representational, Photography and Sculpture. The number of prizes awarded is determined by the number of entries and the number of artists in each category. Approximately 50 pieces of art were judged and are on display. The array and assortment of the art we produce is delightful and amazing. Thank you to everyone who entered this year's VHAA Small Image Show.
