An all media juried exhibition Exploring Values/Shades of one Color Here we are focusing on artwork following the theme “Monochrome”, which in this case refers to work that is at least primarily monochromatic, visually including shades of one color. This can be any color, not just grayscale. Artists are encouraged to explore the theme in a way that suites their vision and their work.   Erik S.
