I was able to speak with several people from the gallery about both my artwork and others\u2019 work as well, giving me insight on what the process of being submitted into a gallery was like.<\/p>\n<p>During the reception, I also gained feedback on my artwork, which was immensely helpful in planning and executing current and future compositions. In addition, the ability to view other artists\u2019 work and speak with them was both helpful and interesting. Several pieces stood out to me personally, and I was greatly inspired by all of the intriguing work that was displayed.<\/p>\n<p>A total of forty-four pieces were selected for the gallery. Among those selected were paintings, single and mixed media drawings, photography, digital artwork, and sculpture, all of which were well composed and thoughtfully prepared. Artist\u2019s Own also ensured that all pieces were well displayed properly and pleasantly in the particular setting.<\/p>\n<p>I personally had a wonderful time at the reception, albeit nerve-wracking at times. The gallery was beautiful, the people were helpful, and the experience was one that I would like to have again in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Jennifer Schulthes, Junior Being an artist requires much more than technique and dexterity, including, but not limited to, creativity, observation, and a great quantity of emotion and thought.
