CALL for ENTRIES: Fresh 3

DRESSED
for warmth

Buying fresh herbs usually signals the beginning of a great week of food at my house. Cilantro ushers in a week of Mexican food, basil inspires Thai, and sage rings in the holidays. Sage says comfort and warmth, much like a fresh tube of burnt umber paint. Maybe burnt umber could be your inspiration for this next Call for painting. Take a look…

FOOD FACTS

I cut my living space to ¼ the previous size, and quite frankly, I am relieved. Less house, less to clean. But the kitchen is SO SMALL. I feel like a feature film maker that suddenly decided to do documentaries–on the culinary lifestyles of the rich and famous, ha. My husband is calling it “well organized” at the moment. We’ll see how long that lasts. This next Call is looking for your take on documentary. Take a look…

THE PUDDING

I am told there foods that are simply not worth making for yourself because the short term reward isn’t worth the long-term effort–like chocolate pudding. I don’t know about that one since I rarely eat chocolate pudding. But, I’ve never known that to be true about food. Art shows are a different matter. Some are difficult to enter, expensive and have little to no long-term benefits. This next show is NOT one of those. Take a look because I think you’ll appreciate all this show has to offer…

SMOKE

Some people truly excel at cooking out in the elements. I’m not talking about pimped out BBQ grills on your 400 square foot deck. I’m talking about those folks that can rub two sticks together to make fire or bury things in the coals that turn out like gourmet treats. I am not that girl. I’m not really a fan of living in the elements–period. I mastered s’mores & “Angels Riding Horeseback” (cheese dogs) in the Girl Scouts, but I got that badge by the skin of my teeth. I CAN admit the elements ARE beautiful, and this next Call will help you prove it. Great theme…

Five Elements

Photograph the beauty of nature, five elements provide the foundation for our entire physical world.

Earth, and everything on it, is the product of different combinations of the five basic elements: earth, water, fire, air, and space. Everything found in our world is unique because it contains a varying ratio of these five elements.

Whether walking headfirst into a gale of wind or digging our hands into the soil, we possess an inherent familiarity with the elements. All organic and inorganic substances are combinations of them, be it a time-polished rock or a shiny piece of plastic. A multitude of spiritual practices revolve around these five important pieces of the universe.

They are looking for photographic depictions of the natural world. Landscapes, macro & micro shots, abstractions & realistic images that capture the beauty, uniqueness and magic which makes up our planet.

I used to receive food in the mail. In the past, my out-of-state relatives would send me those meat and cheese boxes. You know the ones–processed cheese, Summer sausage, red and white checked box. But, I have convinced them to stop with the weird boxes of food and to start sending me personal hand-written recipes. I haven’t made all of the recipes, but I am more fascinated with them as art than food. This next Call could be your opportunity to mail food, of sorts. Or maybe NOT food…
