CALL for ENTRIES: No Big Heads 2019

Learn more about the No Big Heads Call from the Hugh McPeck Gallery at University of Alaska Anchorage!

hugs & QUICHES

I make the best quiche in the world. Not hyperbole. (The quiche pictured here is not of my making.) You can say what you want, but I will not be dissuaded, ha.  It is NOT, if fact, what I was hoping for as a supper super power, but it is what I got.  My husband has decided that I am allowed to have a big head regarding this one topic; however, I suspect he’s just humoring me for fear his quiche connection will dry up before he learns my secret techniques and/or ingredients.  Bwahahahaha.

This next Call indicates No Big Heads.  Do I still qualify?  Just kidding.  I like this next Call because it ticks off a lot of great mileposts for many of us.  It is an academic show, a resume builder, and it is in Alaska, a state missing on many of our resumes.  The submission size is limited to 12″ or smaller in any direction, so shipping is cheap & easy, AND there are cash prizes.

Check out this Call for Entries from University of Alaska Hugh McPeck Gallery (Anchorage, AK) for 34th Annual No Big Heads Exhibit. $25 entry, 10% commission & cash awards too.  This is open media self-portraiture, so if you’ve got work to offer, investigate this opportunity!

the APPLE of my eye

It is almost apple season ’round these parts, and I cannot wait.  I grew up thinking Red Delicious apples were “apples”, and I wasn’t a fan.  Not until I became a teenager did I understand there were many other varieties.  Not until I moved to Tennessee did I realize how many varieties there really were.  Now, I live within a few miles of an orchard with more varieties than I imagine I’ll never get around to trying.  I appreciate being able to know about my food, about how it is grown and harvested and sold, and how those funds support the lives of my neighbors.

That connection to my food is what made me connect to this exhibit about agricultural awareness.  I know that many of you are hoping to add a museum show to your resume, and this is a great opportunity to do just that.  Your work doesn’t have to be literal or necessarily botanical to fit this curatorial them.   Show them what you’ve got.

So, check out this Call for Entries from Santa Paula Art Museum (Santa Paula, CA) and the Ag Art Alliance for Art About Agriculture.   $30 entry & 40% commission plus cash prizes. This is a great venue…

CALL for ENTRIES: Winter Solstice

SPRING greens

Sweet potato pie is a family favorite. As we head into fall and the the pumpkin-spice vs no-pumpin-spice debate rages on endlessly, I’m over hear making sweet potato pies from fall all the way into winter.  Sweet potatoes are available year ’round, take much less time to cook from scratch than sugar pumpkins and require far less added sugar.  I know you think you don’t like them, but try them.  Fall in love with them and you can be eating their beautiful orange goodness, from scratch instead of can, for the entire winter.

This next Call is centered around the mood and ambiance of winter and the work that it inspires.  Winter tends to be productive for me, but it often produces darker work, literally and metaphorically.  Are you affected by the change in the season?  This show’s call deadline is in September, so you’ll either need to pull work from last winter or predict the oncoming season.  If you’re looking for a museum show for your resume, investigate Marin MOCA, it is one of my favorites.

Check out this Call for Entries from Marin Museum of Contemporary Art (Novato, CA) for Winter Solstice.  $35 entry, 40% commission.  Delivery is nearly a month after notification, making shipping easier. Take a look…

TOFU no, VEGGIES though

Testimonials and recommendations are great, but my taste buds choose for themselves.  As a welcomed side-result of writing these posts, I receive a significant amount of unsolicitied recommendations for brands of food that are meant to change my mind about tofu, kale & collard greens.  And, I diligently try most to of the suggests, just in case.  On occasion I muse to myself, “that wasn’t half bad”, (never about tofu though), but the important thing for me is to not get stuck in a rut or trust a single encounter as the definitive one.  Did you know that I avoided asparagus for 20 years because of my experiences with the canned variety as a child.  I missed 20 years of green tree goodness.  Never again.  So, send me your food suggestions, and I’ll send you my art experience suggestions.  Here’s one now. 

Yesterday, I offered a Call that chose random winners for supplies in a specific media, but today I offer a Call with a juried winner of cash open to wide array of media.  More accurately, this is a purchase award of sorts.  You do not have to submit the work that will be exchanged for the $1000 –that can be negotiated later.  They even pay shipping costs to get the work to them. I’ve been touting this opportunity for years, so there is a long, RESEARCHABLE history of winners.  Draw your own conclusions about their taste, but it is worthy of consideration.

Check out this Call to Artists from WorkingArtist.org for the $1000 Artist Grant. $25 entry & an email. It doesn’t get any easier. Don’t miss this one…

FLAVOR bombs

I’ve never been a fan of frozen green veggies.  The flavor often reminds me of those little peas in one-dollar pot pies, not entirely natural.  But there is a glaring exception.  Edamame.  I love those little beans.  I like them steamed in their pods, then dipped in a little dumpling sauce (thai chili paste & soy) then sucked from their little green shells.  It isn’t pretty, but I am hooked.

Another perienniel favorite that is all about the color is the BWAC color show.  This is a great space that has grown to become Brooklyn’s largest artist-run organization with over 250 members.  Your dollars have power; spend them wisely.  I love this organization & its mission.

COLD complication

The school year returns soon.  Many of you know I have a kid in college, so his impending exit will mark a change in my house like so many of you with students.  My grocery bill will shrink, and his eating habits will change.  At home, my son eats whatever is put in front of him.  At school, he can choose to fuel himself on pizza and coffee 6 out of 7 days.  I choose to believe not, but a quick glance at the bucks he spends on ‘bucks reveals the ugly truth… his degree will be sugar & caffeine-fueled.

What gets you through a work day?  Do you have a routine or a vice?  Is there a difference, or is the label just a way to guilt yourself into less-frequent indulgence?  After a hard day in the studio recently, I picked up my keys and headed out, making a quick pitstop in my husband’s studio to let him know I was going.  “I’m headed to the liquor store.  Want anything?” I asked.  “Day that good, huh?”  *blink blink blink* “How about I work on dinner while you’re gone?”  Smart man.  This next Call is for those of you whose memory of late night projects & exam cramming are still directly behind you.

CALL for ENTRIES: Unique Abstractions

Learn more about the Unique Abstractions exhibit from Las Laguna Gallery!

abstractly DRINKING SPEAKING

The notion of eating healthy is an abstract one. Even putting ethical concerns aside, there are health benefits (and disadvantages) to embracing vegetarianism, veganism and even raw diets.  Sugar is the devil, but artificial sweetners are differently malicious.  An excessively fatty diet can lead to heart disease but when coupled with an near absence of carbohydrates puts the body in ketosis that effectively treats diabetes in many.  Chocolate and red wine and coffee and kale, all abstractions of a healthy diet.

In art, abstraction takes a lot of forms.  At it’s broadest, abstraction is work that is non-representational. But, that begs the question, non-representational of what?  From that we get non-figurative & non-linear styles that are often included in surrealism, dadaism, cubism, fauvism, suprematism, art informel, neo-plasticism, de stijl & others.    This next Call wants to see all of your abstract creations.  My heart lies with abstraction, although I find reactions to it frustrating.  What’s your experience?  Are you insulated enough not to hear the voices of those that would dismiss the non-representational?  My mantra is ‘process not product’.  Excerise your muscle memory.  Lose yourself in process.  It works for me.  What works for you?

Check out this Call for Entries from the Las Laguna Gallery (Laguna Beach, CA) for Unique Abstractions, a show of abstract work in a wide range of media. $35 entry & 35% commission.  Don’t miss this opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES: Loss, Redemption & Grace

Learn more abou the Loss Redemption and Grace show from EBD4!

I’ll take the PIE to go

There are a lot of customs surrounding death & food.  Most people are familiar with people trying to feed the living by bringing the ubiquitous casserole to the living, but I’ve recently learned that many cultures feed the dead by leaving food on graves, from leaving a pie on the gravestone at Easter to pouring wine on the burial site.  I don’t have a real understanding of the symbolism (if you do, LMK) behind the traditions, but I love the love it takes to want to feed someone pie and wine, even after death. THAT is devotion.

My work has centered around human bones for a while now.  Bones indicate a pattern for me, both for the living and the lost.  I prowl cemeteries with a sense of joy, not mourning.  Gravestones are monuments for the living of the best in those no longer able to create new memories.  They are, without doubt, often erected out of obligation, but even in obligation, they document a lifespan as an accomplishment, no matter how brief.  If they include additional details, they are rare ugly, even if the truth is ugly.  This next Call speaks to me because if offers the opportunity to react to loss from a place of truth, not obligation or memorialization. I am also excited about an open opportunity in Atlanta, a rarity.

Check out this Call for Entries from EBD4 (Atlanta, GA) for Loss, Grace & Redemption.  $40 Entry & 50% commission.  The jurors are researchable, and this venue offers a rare Atlanta opportunity.  Take a look…

don’t paint with FISH SAUCE

Every week I manage to make a handful of Insta-worthy, perfectly staged lunches & dinners, completely by accident.  More often, I conjure tasty dishes that are weirdly, mostly shades of brown due to carmelization, excessive de-glazing and a love for soy, fish, Worchestershire & all other sauces, brown & salty.  As you might imagine, the brown food pics, outside of coffee & walnuts, aren’t really winners on social media, ha.  My work is not brown or salty, but similar & not…

A few times per week I manage to pull off a perfectly Insta-worthy image of my work in progress –always at an off-kilter angle with short focus to blur unresolved issues and just the right light to allow a contrast-y filter to make me look like a rock star.  It is deceptive and born out of equal measure of insecurity and social media pressure to look like I always have everything effortlessly under control.  I have guilt, but not.  I don’t like feeding into the notion that studio life needs to be glamourous, but I also don’t like exposing my vulnerability underbelly to nameless, faceless critics.  Then enters this Call.  As you might imagine, I read A LOT of Calls, and I like options for art publication.  But THIS call is different.  This call wants to see the mess.  Finally, there is an option to show studio life, work-in-progress specifically.  I think that this is the kind of aspirational we can feel good about –always real, likely messy & unresolved.  Seeing yourself represented as an artist is important.  This Call is the brainchild of one of our previously Featured Artists, Robyn Thompson.  It is a project of her course work while working toward her Master of Arts in Social Practice, making this a great opportunity to lift up ourselves AND one of our very own.  

Check out this Call for Entries from On the Easel Magazine (digital/print) for Works In Progress.  No entry fee for this aspirational call for work in progress.  There are no cash awards, but this Call is all pros, no cons for me.  Take a look, and please contact me personally if you have concerns…

a-PEELING

My mother doesn’t own a vegetable peeler.  Well, didn’t.  While I have the benefit of a knife skills class in culinary school, I am not great a peeling vegetables.  I can tourne a potato, but if I peel potatoes for mash, you’d better hope I have a vegetable peeler… or a LOT of potatoes.  When my mother requested vegetable soup over the holidays, I refused unless she let me buy a peeler.  She agreed with disdain, and I spent $3 on the most generic “Domestix” variety available at the local grocer. CHANGED MY LIFE, well, my cooking anyway.  With one swoop across a potato, I realized how dull my home peeler was.  I put the gadget on my holiday list, and it showed up under the tree.   Suddenly I have zucchini ribbons in salad & shaved carrots in my coleslaw.  The possibilities are wide open, ha.

I’ve done the same with paint recently.  I had access to some more highly pigmented tube watercolors recently, and it affected my approach to the work I did with them.  My nature is to “make do” with what I have.  It is taught as a virtue in the South.  Don’t get me started on all the evils of making do.  It is a mindset meant to make children grateful for what they have, but it often squashes ambition and self-value in adults.  That mindset combined with all the guilt I have associated with spending money, has kept me “making do” with some watercolors that are not working for me.  Now when I finish a tube that doesn’t behave in a way that serves my work, I re-order that hue or something similar from a different maker.  I am exploring variations & dispersal patterns & saturation unknown.  The adventure has left me open to the possibilities.  Vegetable peeler & watercolors. Variations on a theme. 

This next Call is also looking for variations on the theme of “Wide Open”.  BWAC is one of my favorite venues, known for great jurors, reliable curatorial vision, a non-profit format & even artist run.  Interested? Then check out this Call for Entries from BWAC (Brooklyn, NY) for Wide Open 10.  There is a distinct discount for early entry, so don’t delay. Take a look…
