OUCH! OUCH!
OUCH!

I dislike overhead lighting, except in the kitchen.  Much of my home is dimly lit; I prefer soft lamp lighting.  But, my art studio and my kitchen are the exceptions.  I’ve injured myself with everything from an Xacto knife to myriad of small and large chef knives.  Lessons learned.  Shadows are not the best place to create fine art or fine food.  This next Call wants you to expose your shadows.  Whatcha think?

Check out this Call to Artists for Shadows from the Linus Galleries (California).   The exhibit offers an online listing as well as the possibility for a showing in one of their brick and mortar galleries.  Take a look…

As Joni Mitchell said, “Every picture has it’s shadows, and it has some source of light. Blindness, blindness and sight.”  

Some see light and some see shadow.

Some see contrasts.

Some see the darkness.
