Welcome!
We are so happy that you are here and that you want to participate in our annual 6x6 Daily Painting Exhibition. 

This is more than an exhibition; we invite you to honor, recognize, and take part in the habit of daily painting.

The main idea is to give you a big motivation, a commitment and a challenge to erase any excuse that keeps you from going to your easel. 

This year, we have an exceptional jury: TEDDI PARKER, DUANE KEISER, LISA DARIA, and SUZANNE HETZEL. Some of them will also be part of the exhibit.

We would like to emphasize that part of what makes Painting Miles work is our emphasis on bringing local artists together in our community. Because of that mission, we are not accepting submissions from out of state at this time.
