CALL for ENTRIES: 2019 Miami Art Basel Edition

Learn more about the 2019 Miami Art Basel Edition from Create! Magazine.

fair FARE

When’s the last time you ate a candied apple?  I haven’t had one in a while either.  Every year I am tempted at the Tennessee Valley Fair to at least have a caramel apple, but I chicken out every time.  I mean, I’m not afraid of the sugar-draped fruit, but it seem like a commitment.  It’s not like I can eat it with a knife and fork in deliberate portions; you have to sink into it teeth first, knowing you may end up wearing it face, fingers, clothing and all.  I’m not ready.

This next call is a worthy pursuit on its own, but it is also a measured solution to the art fair.  When’s the last time you contemplated participating in an art fair like Art Basel?  One option is to venture out on your own, which can be very expensive & risky if you aren’t in the right place for that opportunity.  Another possibility is going as a part of a group or gallery, which still involves costly production like framing and shipping with no guarantee of sales.  If you’re not ready for either of those options, this call from Create! Magazine gives you an opportunity to reach the Miami art week audience without the commitment to a booth.  Their curatorial history proves you’ll be in excellent company.  Think about it.

Check out this Call for Entries from Create! Magazine (print publication) for the Miami Art Basel Edition.  The 3rd Annual Art Miami Edition will be released during 2019 Miami Art Week in December, available in international shop locations & during VIP preview night at Art Miami Fairs.  Don’t miss this chance…

dandy DISHES

I woke up sneezing this morning for the very best reason — flowers are blooming.  They’ve been blooming for a while, but today, the wildflowers have taken over my side yard.  That means it is time to remind folks about eating flowers.  Rose petals are among my favorite salad toppings & oil additives, but dandelions are truly the star of edible blooms.  The yellow flowers are delicious, the greens are considered a superfood, and I hear you can roast & grind the root as a decaf coffee substitute.  As always, never eat a flower if you don’t know its history as well as the history of the land upon which it grows.  No one wants a belly full of pesticide.

Continuing with the publication-themed calls this week, pay attention to the next one.  This environmental magazine has a 30+ year track record, so doing research on what they want is easy.  They do publish a wide variety of styles; however, environmental work is their mainstay.  I have linked to their Call, and although they have an online entry system, you will find that they prefer you to simply email them a link to your work, NOT the work itself.  This is a great way to have someone consider a portfolio of images instead of hoping you picked the single “right” image for the submission.  Free & easy…

Check out this Call for Entries from Orion Magazine (print publication) for the Lay of the Land department.  There is no fee to enter, but please do your homework on this publication so that you can craft your submission to suit.  “America’s Finest Environmental Magazine”…

CALL for ENTRIES: Summer 2019 Print Issue

COLD complication

For years, popcorn was the ultimate summer food.  Popcorn with a hint of olive oil, parmesan and cracked black pepper was my idea of the perfect snack food. Then, there was some weird shift for me.  Stovetop popped was too greasy.  Microwave-popped was always singed.  Air-popped was always tough.  I just quit eating it — for nearly two years.  I missed my daily snack favorite, but was resigned to the absence of popcorn. 

Then one day Facebook started feeding me ads for an Amazon listing a silicone popcorn popper (not a sponsored ad) for the microwave.  I’m guessing I did something online that Google’s algorithm decided meant I needed popcorn, and, well, it was right.  That $10 product arrived, and it was ridiculous, a floppy, ridiculous concept.  It came without instructions.  I searched and found an equally ridiculous video. Holy popcorn!  It is soft like stove-topped but without that queasy overly greasy aftertaste.  So what’s the lesson?  No lesson, except maybe… all hail Summer.  

Continuing with this week’s publication theme, here’s a call for one of my all time favorite art publications.  Check out this Call for Entries from Create! Magazine (print publication) for the Summer 2019 Print Issue.  $30 entry for this gorgeous magazine.  Don’t miss this chance…

CALL for ENTRIES: Cover Art

a HUNGRY summer

I’ve had my head down working and planning and growing.  How about you?  Spring always makes me take a second look at my process, while summer makes me kick into production mode.  What are you doing to support your work?  I am contemplating meal kits and taking a day off from the studio.  I know that doesn’t make a lot of sense at first glance. But lunch is the bane of my daily schedule.  Just when I hit a creative stride, it is time for some sort of meal prep for lunch.  I live in a house with folks with dietary restrictions, and everyone eats lunch at home.  So, I’ve been exploring options.  Take out takes just as much time to pick up, and delivery is cost prohibitive.  A lot of meal kits are labor intensive despite arriving with pre-prepped foods, and many of them are the wrong quantity or, again, cost-prohibitive.  I’ve found one (Hungryroot & no, this is not sponsored) I think I am going to give a try.  The ingredients look good, the sizing is right, the cost is manageable.  I am excited about getting lunch off my plate, so to speak.

One of the other big stumbling blocks for me is juggling my boring-but-necessary household tasks with my work schedule. Finding time. I find it hard to work creatively when I am encumbered with a list of non-creative tasks to do at home.  My husband more than carries his half of the burden, but someone still has to do my half, ha.  So, I’ve been practicing taking one day off from the studio and trying to cram all of the household tasks I can into that day –laundry, appointments, meal planning, grocery shopping.  It is a work in progress.  I’ll be sure to give you an update before summer’s end.  In the meantime, I’ve had two acceptances for publication in two different magazines, and I am inspired by the positive attention it has drawn to my work and added to my social media reach.  So, I am offering a few publication calls this week.  I am running close on deadlines, so don’t delay in submitting your work.

Check out this Call for Entries from New England Review (Print & Digital Publication) for Cover Art.  There is an additional call for artwork for use on their website on the same page. This is a reputable publication option, with artist payment (albeit tiny) and little to no risk.  Is this a good fit for you?

CALL for ENTRIES: Women Artists

COLD complication

As winter approaches, I am more & more distracted.  I buy a handful of pantry items for single recipes.  For example, I use canned cream-style corn in one indulgent corn pudding recipe and buttermilk only in cornbread.  But, the problem arises because they look like similar items in the cupboard –anything canned or my regular milk.  You only have to put buttermilk on one bowl of cereal to not want to make that mistake again.  My solution? Organization. A simple letter or two scrawled on the container top has stopped me from wasting time and food over and over again. 

In the studio, I am always walking the line between organized and over-planned.  My instincts run toward scheduling, pre-planning, color-coding and efficiency.  But, I also know that when I over plan, I have guilt when I stray from my original design that sometime keeps me on a path (that often isn’t really working) longer than I should.  But if I don’t schedule at all, I end up procrastinating, the stereotypical downfall of beret-wearing artists in movies everywhere.  This next Call is a perfect example.  I love this publication.  It is gorgeous.  The art is phenomenal. Even their Insta feed is fun and inspiring.  I keep thinking that the right work to submit will speak to me.  As a result, here we are a year or two later, I’ve managed not to enter yet.  So, let’s make a plan, be organized; enter early…

screaming GREENS

As we approach the New Year, I keep having flashbacks to a screaming pressure cooker preparing collard greens each New Year’s Day. The sounds & smells have been spurred on because of my new electric pressure cooker, a gift from my mother for Christmas. Yes, I know that I normally shy away from large, trendy gadgets, but I just couldn’t resist.  This one does more & replaces other small appliances, so I’m giving it a whirl.  I’ve had two successful attempts in a row — Swiss steak then pork chops with apples.  Maybe collard greens next.  This next Call wants your reflections on the holidays.  You likely have work for this one…
