Tips and Instructions on How to Enter…
Mandatory Online Entry Process for Fine Art and Sculpture. See also step-by-step
instructions on page 7.
 You will need a digital photo of your art piece in order to enter the contest.
See below, ‘Simple tips for photographing artwork for non-photographers’.
 Digital image size: For online entries, the ideal resolution in pixels is 800 x 800 (length
x width). Images that are larger than that are resampled (resized) to that size while still
maintaining the original aspect ratio. It’s fine to upload images that do not match the
‘ideal size’. The maximum storage size limit is 6 MB.
 Division / Class: See definition of divisions on page 2. An entry eligible in more than
one Division and/or Class should be entered in the Division and /or Class for which it
best qualifies. The Alameda County Fair or the judge may disqualify or transfer to the
correct Class (at his/her discretion) any entry, which is not a true representative of the
Division or Class in which it is entered. It is not, however, the responsibility of the
Alameda County Fair or a judge to transfer an entry to the correct Class or Division.
 Title: Use a short title: it may be abbreviated to accommodate the label space. If you
do not want to title your piece, you will need to enter “untitled”. If you have more
than one “untitled”, put a number after the word. For example, “untitled 1 ‘, “untitled
2”, etc.
Please choose your title carefully. The title cannot be changed later. This exact title is
what will appear on the wall next to your piece if it gets displayed in the exhibition.
 Sale Price: If art is for sale, include price or indicate “NFS” if not for sale. We do not
have POR (Price on Request) or B/O (Best Offer) as an option. Paintings and sculpture
DO sell at the Fair so, please, choose your price carefully so that you will be happy if it
sells. The Fair takes a 20% sales commission from each sale. Sale prices cannot be
changed. No changes after registration. No exceptions.
 Description: The description can be brief. Mention of medium and subject content is
ideal. The description does not go on the wall label.

Simple tips for photographing artwork for non-photographers
These days most artwork is submitted digitally in the art world so, obviously, it’s important to have the
most realistic digital representation of your artwork for submissions. For those artists who are nonphotographers, this could necessitate hiring a professional photographer who specializes in photographing
artwork.
Our Judges will understand that the Fair has just transitioned to ONLINE ONLY submissions for Fine Art and
Sculpture and this may pose a challenge for some artists. Amateur photographic images of artwork will be
considered equally alongside professionally photographed images of artwork.
You can use any kind of digital camera, ipad or cell phone to photograph your artwork.
Choose a simple, plain, non-distracting background for behind your piece- white, grey or black is
preferable. This could be a wall or a piece of paper or fabric (without wrinkles).
Put your piece in front of the background (2 dimensional pieces could be on a wall or leaning against a
wall). Try to make sure the art is evenly lit. Types of light that could work: outside -open shade preferably;
inside-electric light or window light; or professional photographic lighting. Position the camera (or iPad or
phone) directly in front of the piece. Take a good look at the piece from the angle of the camera and move
the piece or the lights if you see lots of distracting shine or glare. Try to minimize any distracting shine or
glare. If you are photographing a square or rectangular piece (painting, drawing, etc.) try to square your
camera up to the piece so that it isn’t ‘out of square’ in the image. Take several photos, trying different
things-maybe some brighter, some darker, different camera positions and then decide which photo is the
best representation of your piece.
Acceptance for 2nd Round Judging
After the 1st Round of online judging, email notification of entry acceptance/nonacceptance will be sent out on Friday, May 29th, 2015, 6 pm. You will be sent a
separate email for each of your entries whether or not they were accepted into the
next judging. Please check spam/junk folders before calling for your results.
Alameda County Fair Fine Arts Guidelines for Divisions #204, #205 and #208
page.9
Acceptance for the 2nd Round Judging does not guarantee acceptance for the exhibition.
Artwork accepted for the 2nd round of judging must be brought to the fairgrounds, framed and/ or ready
to be displayed. Please see ‘FRAMING CHOICE and RULES’ (below) for specific rules about presentation.
All entries accepted for the 2nd Round Judging will then be judged for compliance with framing and other
rules, size limits, and quality of the entry. Judges may, at their discretion, jury out works that do not meet
their subjective artistic standards.
When you bring in your artwork, you can let staff know if you want your piece considered for the Fair
Theme award. THE 2015 FAIR THEME IS: Rock the Red, White and Blue!
Artists whose entries are judged to meet the show standards are invited to enter the
2nd Round of Judging. Artists will need to deliver their work to the fairgrounds on entry
delivery day. Saturday, June 6th, 9 am - 4 pm or Friday, June 5th, 5pm-7pm - Building

Framing choice is one criteria considered by judges in the award judging process. A clean, professional
presentation is advised. Simple wood or black or white frames and white, not colored, mats are highly
recommended.
 Paintings may be framed or unframed according to the discretion of the artist, as long as
the edges are finished (i.e. no unfinished or frayed edges unless they are integral to the
work).

or acrylic.
 Size Limits for Fine Art (Division #204), Entries: Maximum size: 46” high x 60”wide
including frame or base. It is advisable to cover the 16” by 20” and larger sized pieces with
Plexiglas rather than glass to reduce weight. For Art Sculpture (Division #205) exceeding
28” high cannot be guaranteed placement in a display case, and may be installed on an
uncovered pedestal. Sculptures may not exceed 6’ high.
 Weight Limit: 30 pounds. Provide appropriate packing for handling.
 Diptychs and triptychs are not allowed unless framed together in one frame within stated
size restrictions.
 All wall work must be wired and ready to hang with fasteners and with wire attached. Wire
should be heavy enough to support the piece and attached in a permanent way that does
not protrude. Use strap or mirror hangers. No screw eyes; no saw-toothed hangers. See
diagram on page 9. Note: NO supplies will be available to correct unacceptable framing.
 Any artwork not conforming to framing standards will not be accepted for judging.
Artwork not ready to hang adequately will be rejected at point of delivery. Any entry not
meeting framing requirements will be disqualified.

FINE ART JUDGES
Teresa Kalnoskas
has achieved national and international recognition for her iconic, large-scale abstract
works in oil that are action-driven and still-life inspired. Her work has been exhibited in top galleries and museums
throughout Northern California, Utah and the Northeast. Her corporate collections are throughout the United
States and in Asia.
Following studies at Kutztown University, Virginia Commonwealth University, UGA Cortona Italy, and Penland
School of Crafts, Kalnoskas leapt onto the gallery scene with her atomic-energized still-lifes that are largely inspired
by her childhood family farm and fruits of harvest.
A 30-year resident of California, Kalnoskas is currently represented by Sense Fine Art, Menlo Park and Julie Nester
Gallery, Park City.
John King
attended the University of California, Berkeley and received his
B.A. and M.A, in Painting and Drawing. While at UCB he studied with Elmer
Bischoff, David Hockney, Walter Askin, R.B. Kitaj and Roland Petersen. At Berkeley he received the Eisner Prize in
Art and on graduation taught as an associate in the Art Department and subsequently in the Peralta College system
and other institutions.
John served in the US Army and the San Francisco Police Department. Both of these experiences have influenced
his painting as a figurative painter to this day -the army because it exposed him to a wide variety of European art,
while stationed in Germany with easy access to Italy France and Austria., and the SFPD because of its exposure to
the varied life of an urban landscape and its inhabitants.
His work is in public collections in the US and Europe including The Addison Gallery of American Art. The Brooklyn
Museum, Michelin Corp, France and numerous private collections here and abroad.
John maintains a painting studio in Oakland CA.
Fred Kling
is a contemporary painter and Professor Emeritus of Art at the City College of San Francisco, where
he taught classes in painting, drawing and Plein Air painting. He holds a BFA from The California College of the Arts
and a MFA from Mills College. For 20 years he was part of the group of Oakland artists who worked in studios in the
Pardee building before it was demolished.
Fred’s work was included in the exhibition A Oakland Metaphor: Hidden Treasures- the Pardee Artists exhibiting
the work of the artists who populated the Pardee in its heyday. His work has also been exhibited at the LA County
Museum of Art, The Place of the Legion of Honor, and is in the permanent collection at the di Rosa Preserve. Fred is
a long time member of the group of artists who make up the Van Kleef Book Club.
