PICK ME

Not every weed is to be plucked and discarded.  Hopefully no one is spraying chemicals on their garden--either to fertilize OR remove pests; however, I DO want to encourage you to remember that not every weed needs to be removed either.  Chickweed is a perfect example.  If you’re lucky enough to have it sprout in your garden, don’t weed it…eat it.  And you don’t have plant a garden in an open field to find this gem; it even grows in the cracks of sidewalks.  No really.  This next Call DOES, however, make use of an open field.  Investigate…

Check out this Open Call from Field Projects for Show #21. $25 entry, great curator & open to ALL media.  Take a look…

everywhere a veggie

I am running out of time to find a place to plant a garden.  When I moved to a smaller home while we searched for a new home or property to build on, I knew I wouldn’t be able to plant here.  So, I may have to resort to a window garden and a few containers this year.  I could live with mostly herbs and lettuce as long a my husband could coax tomatoes out of the containers.  Tomatoes hate me; don’t ask.  Vegetables are my interpretation of a garden. This next Call wants your interpretation of a garden.  Don’t dismiss this one without investigating…

CRABS

Seafood usually conjures the image of a beach-front town for most, but I always think of Savannah, Georgia.  I’m not crazy about sand, so I’d spend my lunchtime at the River House over a bowl of lobster & crab bisque over a sandy crab boil at the beach any day.  Going to the opening of this next Call would be the perfect excuse to put away some seafood.  Take a look…

RE: Tale

Everybody has a story to tell. We are constantly creating tales in our heads. They might be our own doing, they might be partially vicarious or perhaps completely borrowed. These accounts often get restructured and retold, evolving each time. This is not unlike contemporary art, which by nature constantly strives for reinterpretation.

Fitting the concept of something that is partially untrue in a gallery called “Non-Fiction” seems to be ill-fitting. However, borrowing from the gallery’s vision statement, everybody’s tales, whether personal or fictitious, “inspire life-changing dialogue.” After all, Aesop never needed a true story to communicate his vision.

In today’s contemporary art scene, artists have deconstructed the idea of a story to fit their medium and surface preferences. This juried exhibition strives to showcase the breadth of interpretations of the concept of “visual storytelling.”

BUFFET

I spent my pre-adolescence & formative culinary years in a small Georgia town.  It wasn’t all peanuts but more a montage of scenes including fried foods, all-you-can-eat buffets, red-clay stained feet & knees, and demolition derbies.  But in hindsight, I think those scenes were more about my family and less about the place– Marietta, Georgia.  This next Call is proof of the fantastic opportunities & venues found in Marietta/Cobb County.  I am in love with this venue.  Please don’t miss this opportunity…

The only good reason to be on the beach is a clambake or a lobster boil, in my opinion.  I’ve never been a beach kind of girl.  I’ve always preferred the green leafy mountainside over the golden sands of the beach.  And I’m not sure why.  But I know how many of you are beach combers at heart.  So, this next Call is a great opportunity to express your love of the sea in virtually any media or size.  Take a look…

Beach Comber Art

This exhibit is concerned with the discoveries that artists make at the seaside. How do the sounds, tides, colors, and textures inspire artistic expression? How does the sea affect the content, mood, and execution of works of art? Are you, as an artist, mesmerized by the sea? Do you pick up bits and pieces of things at the beach and take them home? Do you incorporate found objects from the beach into your art? If your work explores these and other complementary issues, the jury invites you to submit your work to this show. The goal is to create a rich and textured exploration of our relationship to the seaside.

PEPPER
grinders

I have lost track of the number of pepper mills I have owned.  The best one I ever owned featured one-handed operation.  It eventually broke after being dropped one too many times, and I could never find the same one again.  The dilemma is that they either grind the pepper too fine or too coarse, and the adjusters never turn quite far enough.  Ground too finely, pepper will dominate the flavor of any meal.  Ground too coarsely,  peppercorns will give your guests a crunchy, spicy surprise in the middle of an otherwise well-balanced meal.  It is all about the size.  So is this next Call.  Take a look…
