Celebrate “The Great Outdoors”

Prizes Selected by Mark Fernandez

The Guild invites you to enter your art exploring subjects and concepts relating to the world outside. It could be depictions of grand beaches and marshes, or small tadpoles in a pond at your local park. The only requirement is that it’s about the natural life that surrounds us.
