CALL for ENTRIES: Like a Tom Waits Song

is more than an EGG

The creative are often food obsessed.  I am not alone. Food is a common experience for us all, but I find that creative people tend to purposefully try to indulge all the senses at once–musicians, writers, dancers AND visual artists.  So how perfect is this next Call that centers around a slightly food-obsessed musician.  If you don’t know his work (Eggs & Sausage is one of my favorites, but Chocolate Jesus was infamously controversial), do your homework…you won’t be sorry.

Check out of this Call for Entries from the Arc Studios & Gallery (San Francisco, CA) for Like a Tom Waits Song.  This is one of the most unique themes I have ever published.  Fascinating…

Like a Tom Waits Song

 

This open call is for all artists who have found themselves deeply moved, enraptured, bemused or inspired by Tom Waits. Has his music ever transported you to a dusty desert town or an abandoned train yard or a glowing, gritty neon rainy city street filled with steam? Listening to his music do you come away from the experience with a flash of inspiration embodying his lyrics? Like Tom Waits, do you tell tall tales and spin yarns with your work?

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all US artists

MEDIA:  Sculpture, painting, drawing, photo, printmaking, ceramics, assemblage, collage, mixed media, fiber art  & artist books. This exhibition cannot accept jewelry, video, film, performance art, installation and works requiring an external electrical source.

DEADLINE:  February 23rd, 2014

NOTIFICATION:  March 28, 2014

ENTRY FEE:  $35 for up to 3

The range of work includes paintings, works on paper, photography and sculpture.

Because you know I’ve been a foodie for so many years, it should come as no surprise that my weight has fluctuated for decades.  I have been everything from a size 8 to a size 24 over the years.  I have given up carbs, given up fat, eaten only fruit, eaten only soup… You name it, and I’ve tried it.  Nothing ever worked for long.  Then I was forced to quit eating wheat, and my weight stabilizes.  Go figure.  I’m not a size 8, or a 24, but I haven’t gained or lost more than 2 lbs in 8 months.  This next Call is all about YOUR figure.  Take a look…
