All your own work?

All works must be original. We will not accept photographs, copies of other artists work or prints (other than original lino cuts, screen prints or mono prints) This includes embellished commercial prints. 

If you have used a photograph or image other than your own as a basis for your creation, then written permission from the photographer  or image maker must accompany your submission.

Make sure framed paintings have frames and mounts that are clean and in excellent condition. 

  • Mounts must be well cut and clean,

  • Frames must be un chipped and not scratched, correctly strung and taped. â€‹â€‹

  • Tape on the back with brown framers tape.

​

  • Correctly strung with picture cord (available in the hardware shop in Rothbury)

​

X Not wire or string.

​

  • You can submit unframed stretched canvas with clean well presented edges.

  • The stretched canvas should be of good quality, wrapped round the frame and stapled at the back, not the sides. 

  • ​When your framed work sells you will get a phone call from us so you can replace it. 

  • For crafts browsers and cards you can phone the Gallery during opening hours and ask the custodian volunteer on duty whether you have sold anything. Please don't email about sales; we keep the records at the Gallery.​

Tips- work to standard mount and frame sizes

Don't date your paintings on the front. Stick to a simple discrete signature
