SCAA ART CLASSIC
Originality Guidelines
As you begin preparing your entries for the Art Classic, it is important to know what types of work are acceptable for entry. The rules below pertain only to the Art Classic and not to the SCAA Gallery or other shows. SCAA has created and refined these rules throughout the history of the Art Classic to showcase our artists' work in the most equitable manner. We encourage all members to create and enter your finest art in the Art Classic!
* Artworks must be the original creation of the artist. Your image CANNOT be derived from a photograph you did not take yourself.
* The artist is NOT allowed to use a reference photo found on the internet, in magazines, or any publications. Artists cannot submit artwork made using a kit or painted/ created in a workshop or other classroom environment.
* No incorporation of any clipart or any stock imagery into an artwork.
* Artwork prepared in a classroom or workshop may not be entered.
*The Artist needs to set up the lighting, subject matter, props, all on their own.
* Think of your project as a solo art piece. It’s up to you to create your image for the Art Classic with your medium of choice.
If discovered that the guidelines were not followed after the award was given then SCAA reserves the right to take the award from the Artist and the next member with the next highest points in that category will then be awarded that ribbon. In the event the Best of Show award is taken from an artist, the Art Classic Chair and Executive Officers will decide on the “Best of Show’ Award.
