There are a few things you need to know as you complete your submissions:

  • You will need to select an artist division  [In ArtCall the Division will be called Category]
  • Select the correct category for each submission [In ArtCall the Category will be called Sub-category

SELECT AN ARTIST DIVISION:   Artist division is based on your life experience with creating art, NOT your experience or newness to an art league.  A person who has been painting for 10 years is NOT qualified to be an Adult Student, for example.   Neither is anyone who has been an Adult Student for 3 years already or those who have already completed 2 years of college level art. Those with college degrees in art should consider Semi-Professional or Professional as an appropriate division.   
·  There are five (5) Artist Divisions.  An artist selects a division based on their life art experience  ---NOT their experience with an art league. 
You may enter only one division and you must remain in that division the entire art season.
these divisions are separated by the following primary SKILL LEVELS:
D1: Professional – Artist’s choice for this designation  (Please note:  If you are a professional artist making a living at selling your art, you will need to register as a professional.  If you are promoting yourself as a professional elsewhere or on your website, please be sure you are competing in the professional division as well.)
D2:Semi-Professional - Artist’s choice to move up
D3: Non-Professional - Artist’s choice to move up
D4: Adult Student – Adult who has created artwork for less than three years (read further for details) either through self-study or under the direction of an art teacher. The teacher may give any verbal assistance needed; however, the teacher MAY NOT PHYSICALLY WORK ON the artwork to be entered in a show.  After 2 years of College Art (4 art courses) or 3 years as a self taught Adult Student, any LSAG member MUST enter the Non-Professional Division.  This is the only division where one is REQUIRED to move up after a set time. 
D5School Student - Any school student, Elementary, Middle or High School.  Homeschool students should register under the grade level the student would be in based upon their age equivalent  ---not skill level.  School students will be subdivided according to grade level:  K-5 = Elementary;  6-8 = Middle School;  9-12 = High School. 
Levels are indicated as D5E for Elementary, D5M for Middle School, and D5H for High School.

SELECT A CATEGORY for YOUR PIECE:   A category for your art is based on what you used and how you did your art.  It is NOT a simple question of what your art looks like.   Read the categories and consider what you USED and HOW you did your art.  

  • There are ten (10) Art Categories which are generally separated by art types and medium used  (not the medium it resembles).   The following guidelines were written to assist artists in choosing the appropriate category for their artwork.  Please read them carefully.  It does not benefit you to enter a piece in an incorrect category.  It may be disqualified in the LSAG Convention show if it does not qualify for that category. 
    Category A: Oil/Acrylic Painting – oil paintings and acrylic paintings painted like an oil painting
    Category B: Watercolor/Acrylic Painting – watercolor and acrylic paintings applied with water giving the appearance of a watercolor painting
    Category C: Pastels – pastels including pastels applied over a watercolor underpainting
    Category D: Drawing – drawing of any kind & including Sumi-e and oriental brush painting
    Category E: Mixed Media – artwork displaying two or more types of media, including but not limited to collage, encaustic painting and other mixed media
    Category F: Photography – digital or film photography MINIMALLY manipulated or adjusted   PLEASE SEE NOTES ABOVE.
    Category G: Digital Art – all forms of digital art including but not limited to photography that has been SIGNIFICANTLY manipulated or altered using technology   PLEASE SEE NOTES ABOVE.  Digital Art is DIGITAL.  If something starts with a photograph & is then altered with paint, pen,  or anything OTHER THAN a computer, then it is NOT digital art.   You may wish to consider Mixed Media (E) if two or multiple mediums are used.
    Category H: Abstract/ Experimental/Non-Objective Art – in any medium
    Category I: Sculpture – 3-D forms in various media including sculptures in relief 
    Category J: Studio Fine Crafts – original fine crafts created in a studio environment including glass blowing, stained glass, printmaking, porcelain / ceramics, woodwork, jewelry, mosaic, weaving, fiber art, metal work, and other finely crafted items
