CALL for ARTISTS: 2015 Adirondacks

Posted on October 12, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

CHICKEN
of beef

I am queen of menu planning. Every once in a while I decide to off planning for just winging it. Well, that never lasts. Now that we are planning for a farm of our own, I am considering the idea of buying protein for the entire year from a local rancher–like a whole cow. The challenge would be to space out the protein so we are not forced to eat eggs only for the last 3 months of the year. I suspect it will end in a lessened consumption of meat, but we’ll see. This next Call is not unlike menu planning for a year at the time. Please DO NOT MISS this chance…

Check out this Call for Entries from Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts for 2015-2016 Group & Solo Show opportunities. This is a fantastic opportunity for any media for just a $25 entry fee. They have THREE galleries to fill…

I miss Spring, and it is October. I miss the flowers. Well, I miss the dogwoods in particular. Did you know that in addition to being lovely to look at, that there are species of dogwood trees that bear fruit? There are even varieties whose wood is lovely for smoking meats and vegetables. And then there’s the art. Yep, where I live, dogwoods are accompanied by art–like the art in this next Call. Take a look…

will you
DELIVER?
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.

WATERMELON
for miles

I cannot eat enough watermelon these days. And, I am intrigued by the variances. My town has ONE grocery store, and the markings indicate that most of the watermelons they carry come from a single source. So how is it that 3 melons of equal ripeness bought on 3 different days taste SO different? One is super sweet, one in grainy & one is ripe, but tangy. This next Call is for Still Life where the presence of fruit is ubiquitous. Did you every notice how rarely you see watermelon in those paintings? Contemplate that when you choose your subject matter…

EGGY

How is it that quiche became girly food? I was at a cafe recently that specializes in quiche. The waitress was reciting the day’s specials to a neighboring table of guests when the man interrupted her to say, “I’m not interested in quiche; I’m a MAN.” Really? It is eggs, cream and cheese. I thought, “Maybe it is due to the pie form.” But, men eat pie, right? I don’t understand his reasoning, but I restrained myself from asking for the sake of the man sitting at my table. Maybe this next Call is looking for the quiche-goodness in women only. Maybe. Investigate…
