March 2014: ALL Paintings Theme

"I dream my painting and I paint my dream" ~Vincent Van Gogh

If all the paintings of the world were put into one exhibition, the styles, subject matter, and colors would all be different. A viewer would be able to walk down a hallway and see photorealistic images right across from Cubist work. Paintings would contain imagery of people, untraveled lands, stories, and dreams. CAGO’s open contest is a chance for painters to develop any concept and create a work that relates to them as an artist.

Our Second Annual Art Competition and Exhibition Theme for March is “All Paintings”. A call to artists is announced for the artist’s interpretation of the All Paintings theme. All form, subject, topic is included in this competition as long as it has some form of paint on it.
