Chicken soup is the ideal healing food for some.  I prefer what my family calls cardboard pizza and chips ‘n’ onion dip.  Nope, there no sense in it, but that is my food habit when sick.  I can’t tell you how many people I know that turned to art when they became desperately sick or injured.  The creation of art can be cathartic, and having work available when you are sick has a way of transporting you away from your own situation.  Submit work to this show to be a part of the creation and healing…

HOT TODDY!

My non-art related work place is The Lodge at Buckberry Creek, a resort in the Great Smoky Mountains patterned after the Great Camps of the Adirondacks in upstate New York.  So for me, the idea of the Adirondacks conjures images of hand-oiled leather couches, animal hide rugs, wood-burning fires and warm mulled cider.  Thanks to this next call, it can now remind me of phenomenal art opportunities as well!

ART OPPORTUNITY: Love the Outdoors?

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

Click to subscribe to ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!I have never been an outdoorsy girl…ever.  But, three years ago I moved to the Great Smoky Mountains, and I have been as converted…well, as much as is realistically possible.  Spiders still make me scream, but blood-sucking ticks are no longer panic worthy.  I like to hike and fish occasionally, enjoy snow sledding and river lounging…I am even headed white-water rafting today with NOC.  No joke.

So, in honor of my new-found, albeit green, love for the outdoors, check out this great call for artists.  Hi-Tec footwear is looking for artists that love the outdoors and are looking to pay a couple of you to have some fun.  What could be better?  Here’s the call:

Check out the Art for Parks Call!Calling all artists!

Each chosen artist will be a part of their live OR art project—an exciting, fast-paced session of inspiration and sketching. All proceeds from the event will go to the National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA). All you need to do is send them a link to your portfolio or a sample of your work (original compositions only please) by July 2, 2010!

They are setting up two lucky artists with an all-expenses paid trip to Outdoor Retailer’s Summer Market, where outdoor equipment retailers, manufacturers, and industry professionals come together to showcase and discover the latest in outdoor apparel and gear.
