Entries wanted for 'Head To Toe Show'

FALLBROOK – Brandon Gallery is seeking entries for the "Head To Toe Show," an open judged show to be held Jan. 8-26. The show features shoes or hats. San Diego sculptor Maidy Morhous will be judging the show.

Although Morhous expresses herself primarily through the medium of bronze, she is also an accomplished printmaker and painter. Her work represents the soft and the hard extremes of the world through the pop theme of commonplace objects as fine art. Morhous' intent is "to engage the viewer and allow for a transformative moment in one's view of the world." See more on her website, http://www.maidymorhous.com.

Work may be any medium. Two-dimensional work may be no larger than 30 inches on any side, including frame. Wire hangers only, ends wrapped for safety. 3D work is not to exceed 20 inches on any side, weighing no more than 10 pounds and must have a stable base when set on a flat surface.

Delivery of entries to gallery is Saturday, Jan. 5, from 11a.m. to 3 p.m. Show dates are Jan. 8-26. A reception will be held Saturday, Jan. 12, from 5 to 7 p.m. Pick up for unsold work is Saturday, Jan. 26, from 2 to 4 p.m.
