SIGNATURE IMAGE FOR THE 95TH JURIED ART EXHIBITION
Every year the Phillips’ Mill Art Show Committee selects a “Signature Image” of the Mill to be used on posters, ads, postcards, social media and the website for the upcoming show. This is a dynamic opportunity for artists to build their visibility among collectors. In the past, many of our signature images have sold.
Artists are encouraged to include whimsical as well as traditional depictions of the Mill and its surroundings. We encourage artists to consider themes of diversity and to “think outside of the box."
The 2024 Signature Image is “March Afternoon” by Donna Ruane Rogers of Frenchtown.The artist was inspired by the lights and shadows on the Mill the day she decided to enter the contest. As she walked around the building booking for the most dramatic angle, she recalled what it felt like to stand in line outside the Mill on the day she first submitted work to the show last year.“I remember waiting in line to bring my work inside. My heart was racing a little bit. You are looking at everyone else’s work,” she says. “When I found out my painting was chosen as the Signature Image, it blew me away. It is such an honor. The Phillips Mill Juried Art Show is the pinnacle for artists in the area.”
