An artist makes many decisions when creating their art. The fundamentals of design include: repetition, points, lines, planes, textures, colors, and composition. Artists intentionally chose  design features to include in their work. Capitol Hill Art League invites you to express in art form what design means to you.
This exhibit is open to 2-d and 3-d work, juried by curator, Claude L. Elliott to be exhibited at Capitol Hill Arts Workshop in SE Wash. DC.
Please read the attached prospectus for details, instructions, fees, etc.
