Tips for preparing your art work for online entry:
-
Photograph your art work without mat or frame, and crop accordingly. Hint - try laying art on the floor and taking the photo standing over it (crop if necessary so it isn't crooked - it is better to have a sliver of missing image than a crooked entry). Photograph your piece on a cloudy day to minimize glare. Use highest resolution possible.
-
Once an entry has been submitted, no edits, replacements or exchanges will be accepted.
-
Use proper capitalization and spelling when entering your information and double check that your email address is correct. Information will be displayed as entered. That includes artist names, titles and mediums.
-
Files should be .JPEG/.JPG, in RGB color mode (not CMYK)
-
File size maximum is not to exceed 5 MB
-
Zipped files and web based files (like .gdoc) are not accepted
-
Please avoid using punctuation in entry titles (ex:ample: My Entry Title – not “My Entry Title”)
For any artwork sold it will be the responsibility of the artist to coordinate with the purchaser delivery of the artwork. The Brighton Art Guild will provide the artist with the contact information of the purchaser.
Sold Artwork: Sold artwork money will be collected by the Brighton Art Guild, along with sales tax for the State of Michigan. Payments to the artists for their sold work will be mailed to them minus a 20% commission received by the Brighton Art Guild. Please allow time for the monies to be reconciled.
