DUMPLINGS and
DIVORCE

I adore Chinese food.  There is nothing better after a hard day of work than a belly full of spring rolls, dumplings and Szechuan shrimp.  But I have just about had it with the printed placemat.  Remember back when they only illustrated the difference between the Year of the Rabbit and the Year of the Rat?  Now they have advertisements for teeth whitening, divorce attorneys and colonics.  Really? Here’s a call that takes best advantage of printing techniques…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Creative Arts Workshop (New Haven, CT) for Boundless, a contemporary printmaking show.  CAW is well respected, the fee is reasonable, and who doesn’t want a two-man show?  Check it out…
