2025 Exhibition: GARDENS: Lore and Legend

Welcome to our 2025 Exhibition: GARDENS – LORE AND LEGEND

There is a wealth of myths and legends connected to nature and plant life. We invited our members to let their imagination run wild and use quotes or words they wish and include artistic themes from flowers, herbs, bugs and butterflies – whatever catches their fancy.

The theme was completely open to interpretation with the lettering as the focus.

  • The theme is open to interpretation, but the lettering should be the focus.
  • The colour criteria: GREEN somewhere in the design.
  • Pieces are between 8 x 10 to 12 x 16 in a black or silver frame.

If you have submitted a piece and your work is not displayed below, please contact us to make sure we have your signed release form to allow us to post your work online. Thank you!
