Considerations:

Artists can not add additional work samples after submitting their application.

Scores are assigned per artwork (1 image = 1 score)

Can this be changed later? No, once an application is submitted, the jury type is locked.

Scoring by Application
The artist’s full submission (portfolio) is judged as a whole.

Example: An artist submits 5 paintings. Jurors give one score for the entire portfolio.

Best for: Artist residencies, fellowships, public art, programs selecting artists rather than artworks.

Considerations:
