TOFU no, VEGGIES though
Testimonials and recommendations are great, but my taste buds choose for themselves. As a welcomed side-result of writing these posts, I receive a significant amount of unsolicitied recommendations for brands of food that are meant to change my mind about tofu, kale & collard greens. And, I diligently try most to of the suggests, just in case. On occasion I muse to myself, “that wasn’t half bad”, (never about tofu though), but the important thing for me is to not get stuck in a rut or trust a single encounter as the definitive one. Did you know that I avoided asparagus for 20 years because of my experiences with the canned variety as a child. I missed 20 years of green tree goodness. Never again. So, send me your food suggestions, and I’ll send you my art experience suggestions. Here’s one now.
Yesterday, I offered a Call that chose random winners for supplies in a specific media, but today I offer a Call with a juried winner of cash open to wide array of media. More accurately, this is a purchase award of sorts. You do not have to submit the work that will be exchanged for the $1000 –that can be negotiated later. They even pay shipping costs to get the work to them. I’ve been touting this opportunity for years, so there is a long, RESEARCHABLE history of winners. Draw your own conclusions about their taste, but it is worthy of consideration.
Check out this Call to Artists from WorkingArtist.org for the $1000 Artist Grant. $25 entry & an email. It doesn’t get any easier. Don’t miss this one…
