Field Day is right around the corner for my son. Do you remember Field Day? It was the much-hyped day of outdoor fun and competition we were all supposed to anticipate it with such joy. Not.

TAG…
you’re it

I really have to start putting tags on my frozen food. I spent a couple of hours waiting for chipotle peppers in adobe sauce to thaw for my black been burgers only to find out that it was left over sloppy joe sauce–NOT an acceptable substitute. I even keep a Sharpie® in my kitchen drawer to put labels on Ziploc® bags, but what do I do about all the glass freezer containers? It’s like leftover roulette in my kitchen. This next show is sponsored by the TAG…

CHEESE

I would hurt somebody for macaroni and cheese right now. No, I’m not pregnant, but my craving for foods has been a little nutty lately.

A SPOONFUL

Some of the most precious kitchen gadgets I have are handmade–from olive wood cooking spoons to hand turned wooden salad bowls.

I even have a favorite. The crafting of my wooden spoons is not unlike the printmaking featured in this next Call. Investigate…

VALUE MENU

Do you remember when fast food was a super fast, super cheap option? If you were on the go or in a hurry, lunch or dinner at a fast food joint wouldn’t break the bank. Today, my little family of 3 stopped for lunch. I ordered from the value menu to keep my portion sizes in check. My two favorite men ordered sandwiches and fries. The total was about $16.50. Really? $16.50 for a fast food lunch? When did this happen? Clearly, I am out of touch with reality. This next Call puts 1650 in a much better light. Don’t miss this…

I’ll Be Your Mirror:
The Portrait

Great portraiture such as that produced by Dorothea Lange, Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, Matthew Brady, Peter Hujar and Diane Arbus comprise one of the main pillars of the Pantheon of photographic arts.

The challenge of capturing the personality behind the person requires both technical know-how and an artist’s eye, combining technique, intuition and empathy. When done right, the unseen power of persona comes into focus and, as if by magic — personality seems to jump from the page. This month 1650 Gallery tips our hat to the power of people pictures, and welcomes your work in the blockbuster genre of photographic portraiture.
