Required materials listed by PAAM: 10 images, an artist statement, a resume, an essay and financial information (a need for financial support must be clear and demonstrated). No word limits or image specifications are published yet. Submit paintings only: images in excluded mediums (mixed media, encaustic, collage, dry pastels, chalk, digital paintings, prints, graphite or drawings) will not be reviewed; mixing paint mediums, such as acrylic with oil, is allowed. Recent work is encouraged rather than work spanning a whole career. Questions: Grace Ryder-O'Malley, gryderomalley@paam.org.
