FOOD

The biggest perk of this job is food gifts. It seems when you guys trip across a strange-colored fruit, have extra figs from your yard or find a mustard to die for, I am on the top of your list. Those gifts are loved & wanted; I promise. This next Call, however, is all about the gifts you don’t want. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Non-Fiction Gallery (Savannah, GA) & ArtRise Savannah for The Gift You Never Wanted exhibit. $25 entry, 40% commission & a theme not to be missed. I have SO MUCH work that fits this theme. How about you?

CALL for ENTRIES:
The Gift
You Never
Wanted

We are often given gifts that are unsightly, unseemly, or straight out of a nightmare. Often these “gifts” stay with us, sometimes for the better. The gifts we never wanted take many forms, both physically and emotionally. In the end we have to ask—are gifts given for the sender or the receiver?

For the exhibition The Gift You Never Wanted, Non-Fiction Gallery seeks works of art that explore the idea of the gift as a burden or a blessing.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Open to all media

DEADLINE: November 7, 2015

NOTIFICATION: November 16, 2015

ENTRY FEE: $25 for up to 4 ($20 for all ArtRise members), $30 for up to 6 ($25 for all ArtRise members)

SALES: Non-Fiction Gallery will handle sales. 40% commission will be retained by gallery.

the APPLE
of my eye

I live within 10 miles of two fantastic apple orchards. Between them, they grow over 125+ varieties on more than 40,000 trees. With that many varieties, many are available year ’round via the orchards’ cold storage. But, fresh apple season is upon us. I cannot be more excited for apple leather, dried apples, apple tarts, apple pies, applesauce–all within close reach of home. This next Call also fins it home less than 10 miles from me. Take a look…

Tomatoes, tomatoes everywhere. It is THAT time of the year. The Farmers Market is awash with overly ripe tomatoes at rock bottom prices. When they are less than $1 a pound, I have such a hard not taking them home. We’ve taken to having snacks of sliced tomatoes, tomato sandwiches and marinated tomatoes. They are the stars of their own solo show at our house. This next Call offers you a solo show too, just not in my house. Take a look…

GREEN
goodness

My kitchen smells of heavenly green cardamom. It IS expensive, and I AM cheap. But, I never regret the purchase. I offset the expense by buying it ground instead of in the pod. It loses flavor quickly when you store it ground, but cardamom is used in a huge number of cultures for dishes both sweet & savory. It is a staple of Indian & Thai foods, but it is also found in Nordic breads & sweet treats. You will love what cardamom will do for rice pudding or hot tea. This next Call is international, just like my kitchen. Take a look…

Confluence of public health and food labeling took a step forward when nutrition facts were added to processed foods. I promise I won’t go into my issues with processed food or the FDA this time. The fact that nutrition facts exist on packaging leads me to believe that the interest of both the food industry and consumers can merge into content labeling regarding the origin of food as well. Fingers crossed. This next call is a Confluence of art and fine craft with an excellent retail opportunity. Investigate…

How many perennial vegetables do you know? There are a few like asparagus & horseradish that aren’t strangers, but there is a whole world of beauties like Jerusalem artichokes, Egyptian onions, Good King Henry & yummy ostrich ferns (aka fiddleheads). Doesn’t the idea of planting a vegetable once and harvesting for up to 20 years sound like a dream? Granted there are the complications of disease control, smaller harvests & garden takeover, but sometimes one planting can be fruitful for years. This next Call only happens once per year, but it could pay off for years to come. Investigate the options…

BEANS

I don’t drink coffee. For all of my open-palate talk, there are things I am simply not interested in consuming. Coffee is one of those things. For many of you, this is heresy, sacrilege, blasphemy. I suspect it would be like my reaction to people that don’t like chocolate–incomprehensible. But, I break my own rules. When I go to the “home” of something, I feel obligated to partake. Don’t you have to drink coffee in Washington? Maybe I could just visit Java Jive and listen to a few tunes in the giant coffee pot instead. Or consume a little art just a couple of hours down the interstate. I’m game. How about you?

Coconut, really? I had a Mediterranean Chicken Salad at a coffee house cafe yesterday, and it came with the standard fare–feta, olives & red onions. But, then there were dried cranberries (yum) and& coconut flakes (weird). Sometimes you have to experiment. This next Call could be a way for you to experiment with Art Basel for as little as $15.

APPLE

I have a tattoo. It is apple-shaped. I know–food, again. It was really meant to be about food, technically. I went to New York City, aka the Big Apple, for my graduate school interview, and decided to get a little, nickel-sized apple tattoo to remind me of my trip to the Big Apple. Yes, I was sober. Turns out that I’m a bleeder, so it is my only tattoo. But, I really love them. This next Call wants your take on tattoos. Take a look…

I survived another holiday without eating blue food. Why do people eat the blue food? Blue iced cookies & cakes are everywhere this time of year, so I am going to say this again… step away from the blue food. The closest thing to naturally occurring blue food is squid ink. Eat all the squid ink your heart desires, but please stop buying blue Jell-o, Koolaid, popsicles & icing. You’re only encouraging them. If you need to experience ALL the colors of the rainbow (including blue), try this next Call instead. Take a look…

“I think the way we perceive color is our sixth sense. I can taste lemon yellow. I can feel the inherent nobility in imperial purple. A pop of color?

Are your colors complementary or diametrically opposed? It’s a question that we’re looking forward to seeing how you answer.” –from rdixongallery.com
