CALL for ENTRIES: Las Laguna Aqueous 2019

Learn more about the 2019 Aqueous from Las Laguna Gallery!

open up & say A-GUA

I quit smoking six and a half years ago.  I entirely expected to be able to better taste food.  What I didn’t expect was my sense of smell to like a blood hound.  My hearing also wildly improved, but my family believes the timing is just a ridiculous coincidence.  My sense of smell, while appreciated, has consequences.  The trash has to go out more often.  I can smell a soft spot in a potato in dry storage or an overly ripe banana all the way in my bedroom the minute I wake up.  The strangest smell revelation for me is water.  Water should be odorless, but it rarely is.  Tap water almost always reeks of chlorine or sulphur or has an acrid metallic odor. Ugh.

Meanwhile my husband is upfitting a small barn as my new studio, and it doesn’t have running water.  As a watercolorist, I have to have clean water.  As a solution, I designed an inexpensive system that pumps water from exchangeable 5 gallon jugs and a separate complex filter system to allow me to send the gray water out to water the flower beds.  I use non-toxic paints, and my filtration system is meant to capture the pigment, but I am going to plant white flowers… just in case.  This next Call is all about the water soluble media & has fewer guidelines than the society shows.  Take a look…

eggs WATER pasta

My local water utility only serves 943 addresses.  The tiny service area results in excellent tasting water.  Water quality affects everything I cook, most notably iced tea, poached & boiled eggs, and pasta.  I move in two weeks to a different water system.  The countdown is on.  This next call depends on water too.  Show them your best…

CALL for ENTRIES: 63rd Annual National

Learn more about the 63rd Annual National Exhibit from the National Society of Painters in Casein and Acrylic! AGUA limpia

I am not an avid fan of drinking water, but my health requires it.  Since the wildfires, I find that our water tastes different due to additives to protect us from bacteria that may have grown during the week water was not circulating.  It isn’t just a beverage.  It washes every dish. It is the foundation for coffee, tea, chicken stock and even poached eggs, mashed potatoes and steamed spinach.  Never take clean water for granted.  This next call requires the use of water media for all submissions.  Take a look…
