J. Mane Gallery invited submissions for its 5 for 5 online juried art exhibition in honor of our 5th Anniversary.

“An artist is typically a being that is filled with so much passion, love, or pain for certain lands, people ideas, or images that all they can do with that overflow is bleed it out by creating. And with this type of art, the energy will be shifted from the depths of them, and into the depths of the audience to be felt. It is a dance. A transference. An intimacy. It is to touch and awaken another human a place they hadn’t known was aching or sleeping. Both are open. Both are nourished. Both are transformed.”~Victoria Erikson

For this competition, artists were encouraged to share their artistic vision. Any subject and all media were accepted, including 3-D. Artists over the age of 18, regardless of location or experience, were encouraged to submit their best-inspired work.
