Embellished Print on Handmade Paper
HOLMES has a BFA in Print Making from Stanford and a Masters of Science in Visual Studies in Art & Technology from MIT.

"Experimenting with new media and combining the traditional with the nontraditional fascinates me. My recent explorations into print making marry inkjet print transfers onto handmade paper (using household products such as hand sanitizer gel, liquid starch and hairspray) with basic textile techniques (embroidery, beading, dying)."

The End is Now

June YOKELL is currently working on paintings of California landscapes creating particular moments in paint of beauty & loss.

"I feel a rootedness to everything about nature;-rushing rivers, tangled bushes and trees, blooming plants & flowers, songs of birds, snow falling in a silent and dark night, the warmth of a summer evening. Early experiences along with my response to nature, to personal relationships and to the world are the ingredients. The presence of memory is the ongoing spice."

FAVORITE FOOD: Salad

PLANTED

Pungent seems to be the portfolio view of my kitchen.  While taken individually you’ll find the full gamut of flavors from subtle pink salt to fresh pulled mozzarella, the overall impression most people would have after a quick kitchen tour would probably be more accurately represented by a jar of anise and potted mammoth basil plant.  What does your portfolio say about you?  The next Call asks this very question.  Take a look…

really? wow!

I love eating in a small town because I have learned that it means I can more easily know and appreciate my connections to my food.  However, as I sit and write from a hotel room in a city with a population of almost 7,000 (twice the size of my hometown), I realize that many additional options a little boost in size can afford.  This next Call is looking for your views on the cityy–good OR bad.

CUCURBITA

Squash is yellow in my house. If I ask, “do you want squash with dinner”, I mean the yellow, long-neck variety of summer squash. If I want acorn, spaghetti or zucchini squash I will ask for it.

BEANS?

My mother cans green beans for me every year, and when I arrive to pick them up for winter back stock, her questions is always, “Greens or beans?”  Apparently toward the end of the canning batch, the last few jars have an excess of beans from the ones that fell out of the greens while cooking.  My mother thinks those little beans are the star of the show, while I’ll take the greens every time.  If your your smallest art could be the star of the show, this next Call just might be for you.  Take a look…

Tiny Divas

Bold. Talented. Demanding. Idolized.

Whether they are known for their powerhouse vocals and intoxicating talent or their over-the-top, won’t-stop, vogue-til-you-drop life and style, a true diva is a muse to the masses. With public response shifting between veneration and vilification, divas captivate, terrify and inspire. They unapologetically demand devotion while remaining utterly unapproachable, keeping the world at a measured distance.

Non-Fiction Gallery wants to bring the celebrity divine within reach.  Rather than choosing the more obvious route of “large persona, larger artwork,” the gallery’s next juried show will feature the world’s favorite superstars on a pocket-sized scale.  Show them your smallest works inspired by the biggest and boldest doyennes.
