FISH

It is time for fresh fish again, right? The sun was shining so brightly yesterday, that I had this overwhelming desire to lie in the grass in the sun with a fishing line tied to my big toe…and wait. The sun on my face tasted like fresh brook trout. Nonsensical, I know. But, this next fresh Call makes all the sense in the world. Take a look…

FRENCH FRY
fuel
hold the ketchup

I’m fascinated by the prospect of using veggie oil as an alternative fuel for powering cars & heating homes. I’m not ready to jump to the change; however, I do have some fundamental questions. Are fast food joints going to start get paid for their waste oil? Will traffic jams smell like french fries? What about the pesticides used on the crops from which the oil was processed? The name of this next Call probably doesn’t indicate the heating source, but we can always hope, right? Always investigate…

purple
mountains POTATOES
majesty

I’m craving purple potatoes. Potatoes have become scarce in my house lately. Paranoid about my family’s long history of diabetes, we are trying to limit our starch intake to see if my current symptoms can be controlled through diet. Because we already cut out gluten, I don’t really miss bread. We’ve never consumed a lot of rice & prefer spaghetti squash or zucchini noodles to pasta. But oh how I miss the potatoes– the beautiful, majestic purple ones particularly. I’m sneaking them in as the crust for quiche & pot pies, but the chips & fries & mash are all gone. I have to reserve all things majestic for this next call. Love this one…

CALL for ENTRIES: Art in the Garden

THERE A VEGGIE
everywhere a veggie

I am running out of time to find a place to plant a garden. When I moved to a smaller home while we searched for a new home or property to build on, I knew I wouldn’t be able to plant here. So, I may have to resort to a window garden and a few containers this year. I could live with mostly herbs and lettuce as long a my husband could coax tomatoes out of the containers. Tomatoes hate me; don’t ask. Vegetables are my interpretation of a garden. This next Call wants your interpretation of a garden. Don’t dismiss this one without investigating…

Check out this Call for Entries from Artcenter Traverse City and the Botanic Garden at the Historic Barns Park (Michigan) for Art in the Garden. A traditional garden theme, but open media & liberal interpretation. This could be an interesting challenge…

CALL for ENTRIES: RE: Tale

Posted on March 13, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

how to get rid of
CRABS

Seafood usually conjures the image of a beach-front town for most, but I always think of Savannah, Georgia. I’m not crazy about sand, so I’d spend my lunchtime at the River House over a bowl of lobster & crab bisque over a sandy crab boil at the beach any day. Going to the opening of this next Call would be the perfect excuse to put away some seafood. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Non-Fiction Gallery (Savannah, GA) for RE: Tale. Only $20 to enter, great juror & gallery, AND the theme leaves lots of room for interpretation…

CALL for ENTRIES:
RE: Tale

Everybody has a story to tell. We are constantly creating tales in our heads. They might be our own doing, they might be partially vicarious or perhaps completely borrowed. These accounts often get restructured and retold, evolving each time. This is not unlike contemporary art, which by nature constantly strives for reinterpretation.

Fitting the concept of something that is partially untrue in a gallery called “Non-Fiction” seems to be ill-fitting. However, borrowing from the gallery’s vision statement, everybody’s tales, whether personal or fictitious, “inspire life-changing dialogue.” After all, Aesop never needed a true story to communicate his vision.

In today’s contemporary art scene, artists have deconstructed the idea of a story to fit their medium and surface preferences. This juried exhibition strives to showcase the breadth of interpretations of the concept of “visual storytelling.”

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: Open to all media

DEADLINE: March 28, 2014

NOTIFICATION: March 31, 2014

ENTRY FEE: $20 for up to 3, $5 ea. add’l

JUROR: The show will be juried by a combination of Non-Fiction delegates and guest juror MAC, originator of the RE: Tale concept & show. Originally from Venezuela, MAC is a sequential illustrator interested in the contemporary development of storytelling. After pursuing degrees in Illustration Design & Sequential arts, he endeavored in museum studies & gallery management, sparking a fascination in the way artist adapt their skills & disciplines in order to communicate a story.

SALES: Gallery sales commission is 30% of the retail price named by the artist.

pickle & peanut
BUFFET

I spent my pre-adolescence & formative culinary years in a small Georgia town. It wasn’t all peanuts but more a montage of scenes including fried foods, all-you-can-eat buffets, red-clay stained feet & knees, and demolition derbies. But in hindsight, I think those scenes were more about my family and less about the place– Marietta, Georgia. This next Call is proof of the fantastic opportunities & venues found in Marietta/Cobb County. I am in love with this venue. Please don’t miss this opportunity…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Marietta/Cobb Museum of Art (Marietta, GA) for Metro Montage XIV. Great venue AND it is open to all media. Give this Call a look…

CALL to ENTRIES: Beach Comber

Posted on February 21, 2014February 21, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

LOBSTA
love

The only good reason to be on the beach is a clambake or a lobster boil, in my opinion. I’ve never been a beach kind of girl. I’ve always preferred the green leafy mountainside over the golden sands of the beach. And I’m not sure why. But I know how many of you are beach combers at heart. So, this next Call is a great opportunity to express your love of the sea in virtually any media or size. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center (Solomons, MD) for Beach Comber Art. $25 to enter up to 4 images. I simply love this venue…

Beach Comber Art

The goal is to create a rich and textured exploration of our relationship to the seaside.

picking a peck of
PEPPER
grinders

I have lost track of the number of pepper mills I have owned. The best one I ever owned featured one-handed operation. It eventually broke after being dropped one too many times, and I could never find the same one again. The dilemma is that they either grind the pepper too fine or too coarse, and the adjusters never turn quite far enough. Ground too finely, pepper will dominate the flavor of any meal. Ground too coarsely, peppercorns will give your guests a crunchy, spicy surprise in the middle of an otherwise well-balanced meal. It is all about the size. So is this next Call. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the JF Gallery (West Palm Beach, FL) for their Small Works exhibit. If you don’t work small, don’t dismiss this one. Their guidelines include work up to 30″ x 30″…

CHEESE
off the old block

Cheese food is not cheese. You’re allowed to like American cheese; feel free. But, don’t take comfort in the idea that you are eating a natural cheese. It is manufactured from milk, whey, milkfat, milk protein concentrate, whey protein concentrate, saturated oils; emulsifiers, salt & artificial coloring–and that’s assuming you aren’t consuming a diet variety. Think of it this way…if the cheese can’t stand alone, then maybe it shouldn’t have the spotlight in any of your meals. This next Call is looking for a big cheese (or six) to put in the spotlight. Are you a big cheese?

Check out this Call for Entries from Penn State Altoona (Altoona, PA) for the Ivyside Juried Art Competition for solo shows at the Misciagna Family Center for Performing Arts. The entry fee is only $10 for up to 24 images. This is a great academic opportunity at a really low price!

wild FOOD

I live less than a mile from one of the boundaries of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. I also live only a mile from downtown; however, my town has a tiny population of around 3500 residents. My location has a profound impact on the food I eat. The availability of exotic foods is relatively limited unless you count game meats which are prevalent even in upscale restaurants. I keep a clean grill because predators are a REAL, not imagined, threat. I don’t hike or cook in the woods alone because black bears do eat people occasionally. Where I live defines what I eat and my relationship with the “wild kingdom.” This next Call wants to know all about YOUR relationship with animals. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Manifest Gallery (Cincinnati, OH) for Kingdom, an international exhibition exploring the animal in art. You can enter for as little at $12. Don’t miss this opportunity…
