CALL for ART: Gifts of Art

Posted on May 14, 2018May 14, 2018 by R.L. Gibson

one EGG or two?

Simplicity can be a gift. Sometimes what I want to eat has less to do with a craving and more to do with the ease of preparation. When I’ve had a productive day, a drawn-out night of cooking weighs me down. Sometimes an egg sandwich is just an egg sandwich; sometimes an egg sandwich is a gift. This next Call see the transformative effect of art on our reparative health as a gift. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Match Girl

no COOKING tonight

I have been without power several times lately. Between wildfires & 50-80mph winds, I have had to rethink a lot of meals. While it is an occasional inconvenience for me, it is the reality of dinner for a lot of people every day of the year. So this year, enjoy your holiday meal with gratitude & remember to find a way to help where you can, when you can, EVERY day of the year, not just on holidays. This Call is inspired by the David Lang’s Pultizer Prize winning “The Little Match Girl Passion”, based on the Hans Christen Anderson story. Be inspired…

CALL for ENTRIES: Mind, Spirit & Emotion

SPRINKLES

Hello, my name is Rachel, and I am an emotional eater. I own it most days. I have learned to indulge the tendency with care. Potato chips and dip are fine after an occasional day of stress as long as it isn’t a daily ritual. Also, I’ve learned to be more discerning about the potato chips and dip I chose, of course. I find that my celebration eating is far worse than my stress eating though. I am wishing lots of celebration cupcakes for the five of my readers (fingers crossed) that make the cut for this next Call. Take a look…

CALL for ARTISTS: 2015 Adirondacks

CHICKEN
of beef

I am queen of menu planning. Every once in a while I decide to off planning for just winging it. Well, that never lasts. Now that we are planning for a farm of our own, I am considering the idea of buying protein for the entire year from a local rancher–like a whole cow. The challenge would be to space out the protein so we are not forced to eat eggs only for the last 3 months of the year. I suspect it will end in a lessened consumption of meat, but we’ll see. This next Call is not unlike menu planning for a year at the time. Please DO NOT MISS this chance…

CALL for ENTRIES: Love/Hate

Posted on November 24, 2011 by R.L. Gibson

WHINE, wine,
WHINE

I love red wine, but it hates me. My mom feels that way about cucumbers. My kid feels that way about cheese. If the cliche “we always hurt the ones we love” is true for food, it always hurts the one by whom it is loved. It is circuitous. This next Call wants your take on the love and hate of it all. Takers anyone?

Check out this Call for Entries for Love/Hate, a group show, at the Lana Santorelli Gallery in Hoboken, NJ! If you don’t have entries for this show, don’t worry… you can also answer their open call–$20 for up to 20 images. You can’t beat the price…
