CALL for ENTRIES: The Sketchbook Project

Posted on December 9, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

HERRING
pickled, not red

My pantry is a library of food fads and favorites. You’ll find canned tomatoes from my mother (necessary to all of my favorite dishes) and high-fat coconut milk (necessary to all quiet indulgences). Then there is the the fruit cocktail, quince marmalade, pickled herring, kimchi, a jar of black lime & a few dried apricots left over from some food obsession or experiment that either went awry or with which I got bored. I can’t bring myself to get rid of the non-expired food no matter how random because they occasionally inspire genius. This next Call displays the beauty of collecting and sometimes inspires genius. This is a beautiful idea…

CALL for ENTRIES: Embracing our Differences

Posted on October 15, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

sweet or
SOUR?

There’s a battle brewing in my house. We live within 15 miles of two apple orchards. We only have room for a 5lb. bag of apples each week. This time of year, Crispins (green/golden apples) get my vote, while my husband seems single-mindedly obsessed with Braeburns (red apples). I don’t care what color they are, but red apples tend to be sweeter. We’ve finally taken to trading off weeks. On my weeks, I get to eat my slightly sour raw green apples; on his weeks, we make apple tarts, pies & crisps out of the red variety. I’m trying to embrace our differences–like the them of this next Call. Take a look…

Check out this great Call for Entries for the Annual Embracing our Differences Exhibit in Sarasota, FL. Your work on a billboard, no entry fee & $3000 in awards. Don’t miss this opportunity…
