Why RED?  Red is the warmest and most striking of all colors. Red is the color most chosen by extroverts and one of the top picks of males. Red can mean love, lust, anger, temper, fiery heat and warmth. Red can symbolize danger. In China, red is the color of prosperity and joy where brides wear red and front doors are often painted red. Red is Tuesday’s color. Red roses symbolize passionate love. Red is the color of Mars. Red is the color of blood with strong symbolism as life and vitality. And we believe artists who work in RED understand the power of creating art within shades of red.  Here’s hoping to catch you RedHanded! –from the prospectus

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists

MEDIA:  Each piece must be created in 50% PLUS shades of red.  All works are square in finished orientation, 20”x20” being the largest accepted size.

I have produced my fair share of leaded pastries–from puck-like biscuits to unintentionally unleavened breads.  I thought it was just me, but I found out that part of the problem was my oven.  if your baking powder doesn’t full work until 425°, and your oven lacks the last 50º because it isn’t calibrated correctly, then you’re going to fail. It doesn’t matter if your oven is 25 years or 5 days old; a digital oven thermometer can save your baking. Trust me.  This next Call offers a little more digital magic.  Take a look…

I’ve been craving crêpes with fresh strawberries and vanilla creme for a week.  As much as I love French food, my patience for cooking is limited these days, and crêpe-making challenges the patience of most.  But, since strawberries that actually smell like strawberries are starting to show up at the market, I am going to try to distract my crêpe-craving taste buds with fresh strawberries.  Wish me luck.  In the meantime, I imagine the jurors for this next show are casually eating crepes during the curation of this show.  Take a look…
