Congratulations to Dee Ruff one of the selected artists for the inaugural exhibition of the Flinn Foundation Art Program! The program is a complement to the Foundation's grantmaking focus and demonstrates the importance of the arts. “I’ve always been captivated by the beauty of colors and textures, especially those found in the natural world. As a Contemporary Abstract Mosaic & Mixed Media Arizona Artist, I have used my studies and artistic skills to express my love of nature and culture. I try to offer my art collectors distinctive artworks. The five pieces I am submitting for this exhibition are from my Illuminated Shards Spring Collection. This Collection is about Hope, Renewal, & Rebirth, and was inspired by the colors and textures of spring. Within the designs, reflective elements beneath the transparent glass, create a subtle sparkling effect, if placed in bright, focused lighting.” -Dee Ruff We thank the Flinn Foundation for this collaborative partnership and their continued support of Arizona’s arts and culture community.

Reminder, DEADLINE is 1 WEEK AWAY! ⏰ The Flinn Foundation kicked off this series of exhibitions in March 2022, with art prominently displayed in the Flinn Foundation's reception area, conference rooms, and an exterior veranda space suitable for sculpture. The Foundation's unique building in the heart of Phoenix—adjacent to the Arizona Opera and across the street from the Phoenix Art Museum—is now a site where Arizona artists can exhibit their work, emphasizing to all who enter that the arts are vital to the quality of life in Arizona. While the facility is private, the Foundation regularly convenes leaders in workshops and educational forums at the conference center within the building. A selection panel composed of Flinn Foundation representatives will consider the following artworks for the exhibition: oil, acrylic, watercolor, graphite, charcoal, pastels, photography, ceramics (wall-hanging ceramics only), printmaking, textile, mixed media, and exterior sculpture. The artworks will be available for purchase and all art sales will be facilitated without a commission. In addition, selected artists will receive a $200 honorarium for a contributed artwork to the exhibition. Artists, don't miss this opportunity to submit your work to be considered as part of this exhibition, opening this fall! Link to submit: https://artlinkinc.submittable.com/submit
