CALL for ENTRIES: WTP Painting

Learn more about the Painting Competition from Woven Tale Press!BREATHE deeply

I often claim to be a plein air diner.  Food just tastes better when eaten outside. I’ll take a picnic or patio dinner over a upscale restaurant any day.  My mother swears fruit tastes even better eaten right in the field, dirt & all.  This next Call doesn’t require that you paint, or eat, plein air; however, the winner’s retreat offers both of those opportunities.  If you’ve been hesitant to submit to publication calls, investigate this one…

Check out this Open Call for Entries from The Woven Tale Press (print publication) for Art Competition: Painting.  Regular readers know that I believe art publication is worth the effort and can be a reward of its own.  But THIS publication also comes with artist’s retreat in the Hamptons.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: 2017 USM Nat’l Painting

Learn more about the 2017 National Juried Painting Exhibition from The University of Southern Mississippi!

BERRY good

Painting with food is fun.  About 15 years ago, I was a gallerist faced with the challenge of creating a curriculum for day camp that would teach children concepts & techniques employed in abstract painting.  Again & again we found that painting with berries was the biggest success.  It bypassed brush skills which are a challenge for kids under 6, and it relieved parents’ worries about the toxicity of paint.  And of course, teaching other people’s children to play with their food is always fun, ha.  This Call is all about painting, but using berries isn’t required.  Take a look…

ARTIST of the DAY: Cecile Perra

"Coiffe" (glass painting/photogram) by Cecile Perra
Detail of “Coiffe” (glass painting/photogram) by Cecile Perra

“Assise dans l’instant, armée de vieux papiers, précieux
tissus porteurs d’histoires, portraits intimes que je
transforme, mêlant familles et inconnus, j’ass
emble,
je couds, je peins, je gratte…”
Cecile Perra

“Seated in the moment, armed with old papers, precious fabrics carrying stories, intimate portraits that I transform, mixing families and unknown, I assemble, I sew, I paint, I scratch…”  –Cecile Perra  (Please forgive the translation.)

___

For many, December consists of meeting after meeting with collages of people.  Images and memories laid over philosophy and politics and ultimately framed as a family member.  Pieces and parts, both good & bad.  Part fiction, part reality; the difference is hard to distinguish.  The work of Cecile Perra, today’s AAAD Artist of the Day, mirrors that patchwork progenitor that each of ponders across the table.
