CALL for ENTRIES: Root to Bloom

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

Learn more about the Root to Bloom exhibit at the Principle Gallery!SIPPING and driving

While traveling around the country, people often ask what food I miss most from home.  The truth is, what I really miss is tea — unsweetened, cold-but-not-iced, sans caffeine.  I drink at least a gallon a day.  I can make it on the road, but it isn’t the same.  Different water, different container, different refrigerator.  When I am nearly home from a road trip, I always think the same thing, “I can’t wait to get home & have a glass of tea” (and see my family and dog, yeah, yeah, I know).  This next call wants to know what “home” is to you.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Principle Gallery (Alexandria, VA) for Root to Bloom, a juried show about “home” –wherever that may be.  Open to painting only…

clean your PLATE

Eating is a roving action at my house.  Sometimes breakfast is consumed at the kitchen counter.  Lunch often ends up as a living room picnic.  If I’m lucky, dinner is eaten at the kitchen table twice per week, and it isn’t because I love eating on the go.  The reality is, my tabletop is generally covered by paperwork that should be on my desk or art that should be in my studio space or music equipment undergoing cleaning or repair.  Tonight it holds a prom tuxedo (don’t ask).  I need a more functional tabletop landscape –just like this next call.  The deadline is rapidly approaching…

CALL for ENTRIES: Urban Aspect

everything

Most people, in my experience, believe that big cities, like D.C., offer the best in restaurant diversity.  And, while this is perhaps true, I find the best quality food experiences are in cities just outside these areas.  Take Alexandria, VA, for example.  Located just outside D.C., you’ll find everything from farm to table fresh offerings to gourmet comfort foods.  All the aspects of urban offerings in a slightly smaller setting.  This next Call offers an urban aspect, AND it hails from Alexandria too. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Principle Gallery (Alexandria, VA) for Urban Aspect.  Gorgeous gallery, historic & walkable location.  Don’t miss this opportunity…
