PLACERVILLE ART ASSOCIATION’S
3D and 3x3 Show
Our second annual 3D and 3X3 is currently on display at EDAC’s ArtSpace on Main Street in Placerville and will run through February 11. If you haven’t had a chance to see it, come on out and enjoy the view! The show underscores both the depth and breadth of our member’s work with 18 3X3 collections and 66 3D pieces.
The 3x3 collections include a myriad of subjects – landscape, figurative, animal, and abstract – and nearly the full range of media – watercolor, acrylic, oil, pastel, encaustic, colored pencil, and mixed media. Among the 3D pieces you will see gourds, jewelry, ceramics, fused glass, lampwork glass, assemblage, and metal sculpture.
Thank you to Gloria Vernon for chairing the show, thank you to all the volunteers who helped, and thank you to all the artists who participated.

The show is open to all photographers and all forms of photographic expression are encouraged.
We have an outstanding juror, Jennifer L. Daly, MFA with Distinction-Photography, who has exhibited all over the country. Her juror statement reads: "Photography has always been a diverse art form with evolving and emerging technologies, ideas, and styles. As a juror, I look forward to seeing the breadth of the medium from 'straight' photography to photo-manipulation, digital, traditional and alternative process and everything in between in order to facilitate an exhibition of interpretation of photography today."
