Snarky Owl juried into the International Exhibition on Animals in Art

Each year LSU School of Veterinary Medicine has an International juried exhibition called Animals in Art. This year they received 302 entries from 150 artists. The juror selected 60 pieces for exhibition. My watercolor of a snarky owl has been accepted and went off in the mail today. It will be for sale during the exhibition from October 1-31, 2025. There will be an opening reception on Saturday, October 4, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. in the LSU Vet Med Library. Hope you get to see my owl!
