Outshine

More than 1,800 professional artists from across the United States and Canada vied for inclusion in Oil Painters of America’s (OPA) 32 nd annual National Juried Exhibition of Traditional Oils which will be held at Reinert Fine Art in Charleston, South Carolina, from March 31 through April 30. A collection of original oil paintings produced by today’s top representational artists will be showcased.

“There are thousands of entries to the Oil Painters of America national show and an infinite variety of subject matter each year,” says OPA president, Susan Abma. “To outshine in that crowd, the 200 or so paintings chosen must stand out in all the technical areas but also have those special factors that elevate them above the rest— the extraordinary. In short, they must be the best of the best.”
