Having a flower in the picture does not make it suitable for a botanical exhibition.<br /><br />Also if you're sending work from Japan you need to contact the exhibition administrator who can tell you what facilities the society offers to those sending works from overseas. They have one of the best arrangements of any of the art societies for making it easier for international artists to exhibit.Making A Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509483023337008890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-74396132783979727572014-01-16T10:42:00.976+00:002014-01-16T10:42:00.976+00:00Works command a range of prices.

Telling you what they are makes no sense unless you also see the work.<br /><br />The best way to get an idea about prices is to<br />1) visit the exhibition in the previous year to look at standards of entry, calibre of framing and how they are priced<br />2) get a copy of the exhibition catalogue which includes all the works, a description of the media used and the price <br /><br />Try contacting the lady who provides all the information about exhibitions - the email address is on the website. She should also be able to sell you one of last year's catalogues.Making A Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509483023337008890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-90911499803888516842014-01-16T05:36:45.862+00:002014-01-16T05:36:45.862+00:00Hello Katherine,

Could you give readers like myself an idea of the prices of the work exhibited at the society of botanical artists annual exhibition?<br />SimonSi Breenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02874065136347602502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-41529445200614822872013-04-15T10:11:53.334+00:002013-04-15T10:11:53.334+00:00Katherine - I don't know how you do it.

I thought they were stunning. It was his use of light and shadow and the combination of colours on the Abies. Great to see you on Thursday. Wish we had time to chat, but I could see you were very busy working. Looking forward to your RHS posts.Inky Leaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00790360372622501431noreply@blogger.com
