SPRING greens

It is time for my seasonal obsession with ginger. I love ginger all of the time; however, about 4 to 6 weeks at the beginning of Spring, I am obsessed.  I find ways to work it into every salad, entree & dessert.  My family just smiles & nods, knowing that the ship will right itself soon.  I think it happens because the weather has just warmed up enought to inspire thoughts of light and fresh fare, but our local harvest hasn’t quite made it to summertime bounty yet.  High-quality ginger is available year ’round, and content matters.

This next Call has a deadline just around the corner (sorry for that), and it meets my resume criteria for this year (museums, publicly-funded galleries, collections or libraries).  But the theme of “Content Matters” is what really pushed me to want to enter — achingly relevant. I am finishing a piece now that I think would be perfect, but, you know… jurors.  We’ll see.  If you are interested in a museum show and have work to offer, take a look at the details.

Check out this Call for Entries from Marin Museum of Contemporary Art (Novato, CA) for Content Matters.  $35 entry, 40% commission.  Delivery is nearly a month after notification, making shipping easier. Take a look…
