Summer is a time to celebrate the rainbow of colorful blooms that nature brings us, and we’re celebrating our members with a virtual show of your botanical artwork and your ‘flower story’ - why you love the particular plant/flower, why you chose to paint it, an interesting fact about the plant, etc.
We are accepting submissions July 1-20 for this virtual show which will run on the NESBA website July* through September. Please note this virtual show is for current NESBA members. Membership will be verified upon submitting your entry.
