Geometric By Design II  Dec 11, 2020 - Jan 14, 2021    An all media juried exhibition that focuses on fundamental geometric shapes.  When studying the elements of art, you learn of line, shape, form, color, texture and space. Shapes tend to be either geometric or organic in nature. Geometric shapes refer to those that are more orderly and rely on fundamental designs such as circles,  squares, rectangles, triangles, lines, etc. In this exhibit, we ask artists explore these shapes through their work. Will you focus on architecture or go symmetrical? Abstract or realistic?
