Acceptable Booth Image for Artist Applications
We can not express how important it is to have a booth image of the highest quality and creativity. The Jury weighs an Artist's booth image as heavily as one's presented works for art during the voting process.
Please remember that we do not accept any Photoshop, other digitally drawn, or hand drawn images. The booth image submitted must be an actual photograph. Here is an example of what the Sausalito Art Festival considers to be an appropriate Booth Image:
Further examples of Booth Images can be seen by clicking here.
