Online Art Gallery #213

We welcome a record-setting number of works in this week’s online art gallery.

Many of them are nature- and beach-related. Plenty are photos, too.

Not a lot of abstract art this week.

That’s the thing about this gallery: The exhibits change, every week.

But o matter what your theme or medium — and whether you’re a first-timer or old-timer — we welcome your submissions. Watercolors, oils, charcoal, pen-and-ink, acrylics, digital, lithographs, collages, macramé, jewelry, sculpture, decoupage, needlepoint — we want whatever you’ve got.

Age, level of experience, subject matter — there are no restrictions. Everyone is invited to contribute.

Email it to 06880blog@gmail.com. Please include the medium you’re working in — art lovers want to know.
