CHEESY
CENTER
I refuse to be pigeon-holed as a “foodie.” It isn’t bad. I just think I wandered out of “foodie” territory across the border into “crazy-food-lady” land long ago. I dream about the perfect head of garlic. I would rather sit down eat cheese than do almost anything else in the world. Dare I say it…I probably love food more than art. I am so sorry. I didn’t mean it. Well, maybe just a little. This next call doesn’t want to pigeon-hole your talents by labeling it all art. Get a load of the categories…
Check out this Call for Entries from the Eco Art Awards. I love that there are multiple categories you can enter. The entry fee is expensive per piece, but the cash prize is nice. At least take a look…
