\"Lost<\/a>Vote<\/a> to send Ruthy Valdez to the finals for a chance to win a Solo show at Art Basel in Miami.<\/p>\n

BOMBAY SAPPHIRE\u00ae Gin and Russell and Danny Simmons\u2019 Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation continue to partner together to showcase emerging artists.<\/p>\n

During Artisan Series, a select group of artists will be chosen from online submissions and local art gallery events for a chance to exhibit their work at the Grand Finale event at the SCOPE MIAMI BEACH Art Show.<\/p>\n

The creators of the top three pieces from the Grand Finale will participate in the BOMBAY SAPPHIRE Artisan Series Mural project in each of their hometowns, and the Grand Finale Winner will receive a solo show at SCOPE NYC<\/a> in March 2015. \u00a0\u00a0SCOPE Arts is one of the most important shows at Miami Art Basel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ruthy Valdez<\/a> has\u00a0made it to the semi-final round of this contest. \u00a0She needs our vote to get into the finals.<\/p>\n

CLICK HERE TO VOTE FOR RUTHY\u00a0AND SEND HER TO THE FINALS<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can vote once a day per entry until November 9th.<\/p>\n

Ruthy Valdez’s has previously won another contest with Bombay Sapphire and Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation this year. \u00a0 The earlier contest was for the most likes and shares on Instagram, for which she ultimately won the grand prize: two tickets to Russell Simmons 15th Annual Art For Life Gala in the Hamptons<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Full disclosure: We have been huge fans of Ruthy’s work since we first encountered it at Harlem’s 67 Orange several years ago. \u00a0We finally met Ruthy \u00a0and subsequently acquired one of her works. \u00a0It delivers reflection, introspection, hope and joy each and every day. \u00a0Thank you Ruthy.<\/p>\n
