QUANTITIES

I’ve learned not to limit myself with numbers. One protein, 1 starch, 1 veggie is simply an outline, not a rule. Ask Baskin Robbins®–they once thought 31 flavors was the end all be all. Heinz® used to boast 57 varieties; they now have over 5,700. This next Call is number 58, and I’m confident it won’t be the last. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Stockton Art League (California) for the 58th Juried Exhibition at The Haggin Museum. What more can you ask than over $5,000 in total cash awards?

ABOUT EGGS

The poached egg just may be the showcase of the total sum of one’s culinary skill. My husband is the master of poached egg. Cooking them perfectly requires patience, a little chemical inside knowledge, special care to aesthetics and LOTS of practice. I’m a lucky one; I am. This next Call wants the total sum of your artistic skill by way of your portfolio. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Portfolio 2014

Every photograph tells a story. When part of a body of work, the photograph takes on a new meaning, becoming part of a larger and more complete narrative. A portfolio allows the photographer to explore the complexities of their subject, and provide context that gives it richness and meaning that is more than the sum of its parts. The Kiernan Gallery is pleased to announce its third annual portfolio showcase.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All photographic media are encouraged.

DEADLINE: May 22, 2014

NOTIFICATION: Approx. 8 days after deadline.

ENTRY FEE: $50 for 10 – 15 images

JUROR: In 2010, Gordon Stettinius founded Candela Books, a publishing company, and, to date, they have produced three fine art photography monographs with more in the works. In 2011, Gordon founded a fine art photography gallery dedicated to featuring the work of nationally respected photographers. Candela Books + Gallery now inhabits a renovated 3,800 square foot building in the downtown arts district of Richmond, Virginia and is one of the leading advocates for fine art photography in the mid-Atlantic region.

As a photographer, Stettinius has been exhibited nationally and internationally over the last twenty years and his work can be found in numerous private and public collections. His work is represented by Robin Rice Gallery in New York and Page Bond Gallery in Richmond, Virginia. Stettinius is also an emeritus member of 1708 Gallery and an adjunct professor at Virginia Commonwealth University.

AWARDS: For this exhibition, four photographers will be selected to show their complete bodies of work.

SALES: Kiernan Gallery no longer takes commission on sold works. But, they DO still have incentive to sell your work. The Kiernan Gallery was founded by an emerging artist, and recognizes the importance of selling work; they believe that if artists are paying a submission fee, the gallery should not also take a portion of the sale. They do reserve the right to negotiate 20% in order to make a sale.

UNHINGED

I’ve always wanted a dutch door in my kitchen opening onto an herb garden (both of which would magically function without my assistance BTW). My earliest memories of dutch doors come from watching Mr. Ed, but it has been an enduring part of my kitchen wish list. My husband & I have been trying to get around to building for years now…so maybe. This next Call has opted for and Open Door as opposed to a split door. This is the first of their Calls we’ve featured, so be sure to investigate…

CUT YOU

I used to be the queen of the hand cut garnish and/or decorative knife skills. I think tournée-cut potatoes simply taste better; I do. But, my recent cooking laziness has forced me to return to a more fresh-cut approach, like carambola (star fruit). I’ve looked at them decoratively for so many years, I’d forgotten how delicious they really are. I have not forgotten how delicious the magazine hosting this next Call is however. I’m thrilled to have them as a sponsor, and I wash bowled over when I received my last hard copy. Simply beautiful (and tasty)…

RED, WHITE
and bleu

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…

PIE

We’re only a few weeks out from the Kentucky Derby. And while I am not an avid follower of horse racing, I’ll take any excuse to eat Derby Pie. Kentucky is famous for originating a lot of foods, actually. The Hot Brown and Mutton BBQ are just a tiny corner of the paddock. This next Call is from Paducah (Kentucky), a 3 hours drive from Louisville (the home of the Derby), but I’m betting I can still get Derby Pie there. Don’t miss this great show opportunity…

CHICKEN SALAD
rodent on the side

In a former life, I worked as a sous chef on a charter sailboat in the Carribean for a peg-legged captain with a Sharpie parrot tattoo on his head. It is all strangely true. That WAS my official job title…the rest too. What I really did was spoon homemade chicken salad into avocado halves. I served it to wealthy day trippers along with a cross-hatched mango half turned inside out, known as a hedgehog. Sous chef? Semantics I say. This next Call wants your version of inside out, but I’m thinking they aren’t looking for mango hedgehogs. That’s just a theory, but you should investigate for yourself…
