WHAT IS WOODSNAP? CHECK THEM OUT HERE
What exactly are the 2017 Grain Games? An event that gives local artists the opportunity to share their passion and a chance of a lifetime. We will be choosing 40 Southern California artist to participate in an art exhibit at the Rainwater Gallery that will be open to the public. All for a chance to win $2,500 in WOODSNAP prints, a personal wall to display your prints at Rainwater Art gallery, and a feature in STATEMENTS MAGAZINE.
We want to encourage anyone and everyone to enter for a chance to show off your talent. We will be choosing our favorite 40 artists. There will be 4 categories for this contest; fine art, photography, graphic design, and mixed media. WOODSNAP will provide a print of the chosen artist’s work on at least a 16”x 16” premium Baltic birch wood, which the artist will keep ($150 value).
WOODSNAP’s are unique and beautiful as they do not print with any white ink. The lighter areas in the photo allows the wood grain to show though. Since no 2 pieces of wood are ever the same each print truly has its own unique fingerprint. WOODSNAP also uses a custom printing process where they infuse the ink into the wood giving more vibrant tones due to the natural warmth and grain of the wood.
On March 25th we will be having a party to show off the many talented artists chosen for the opening of the exhibit. The party will be free to the public and with complimentary beer, wine and grub. Each person who attends the party will get one free vote so be sure to bring your friends, family, and any fans of your art to vote for you. We will also be selling raffle tickets which will get you an extra vote in the contest and a chance to win some SoCal lifestyle necessities provided by our sponsors. The proceeds of the raffle will go towards a “Children’s Mini Monet class” and a coastal clean-up for our local beaches.
All you need to do to enter is submit your favorite photo or 2 to media@woodsnap.com and follow @woodsnap and @statementsmagazine.
We encourage all to enter and share their creativity and unique talents. Our goal is to showcase local talents who have never had a chance to get into a gallery or hang next to some of their favorite artists. Good luck and get creative.
