HOT stuff

I am the poster child for a handful of food trends. In fact, I often hang on to them long after they go out of fashion. I am still annoyingly addicted to sriracha. It shows in up in nearly all my mayo, many sauces, and I’ll dip anything in it. You can be a poster child, or adult, for this next Call. Here’s a chance to freely speak your mind. Investigate…

STRAWBERRIES

Do you peel tomatoes? I have a friend that doesn’t like “edges” on her food. No joke. She does the standard stuff like no crust on bread, but she also peels EVERY fruit & vegetable–strawberries, grapes, and yes, even tomatoes. I peel kiwi, bananas & canteloupe, but some stuff really is just easier to eat. Is it just me? This next Call wants ALL your edges (and curves). Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Haggus Society (Los Angeles, CA) for the Edges & Curves 4 . $12.50 is one of the lowest entry fees you’ll ever see. The Haggus Society is a sponsor of AAAD, and I am also a member. The theme is open; please enter & make us proud…

Edges & Curves 4

ELIGIBILITY: Open to artists age 40+

MEDIA: 2D art (no larger than 32″ x 44″) & small 3D art (no larger than 14″ x 10″ x 8″)

NOTIFICATION: June 5, 2015

ENTRY FEE: $12.50 for non-members. No entry fee for Hags.

JUROR: Terri Lloyd is a San Francisco Bay Area transplant who has called Los Angeles home since 1980. Under the influence of a Sixties latch-key-kid youth, the circumstances of a working class life did not provide the conventional means to an art education or experience. Introduced to the Apple computer in the 1980s, a love affair with digital technology was born. Lloyd’s career has been a two-pronged path between fine & commercial arts.

In 2010, Lloyd retired from the commercial arts path to pursue a lifelong interest of fine arts. She continues to become more active as a leader in community arts organizations and activities. When not working in the studio, Lloyd runs The Haggus Society, a feminist art collective for women over the age of 40.

SALES: The Haggus Society does not automatically take a commission; however, a small donation in the event of sales would be appreciated. Please include this in your pricing. If a work is not for sale please indicate with NFS.

*Just one other note. I showed work in the first Edges & Curves exhibit after meeting Terri Lloyd through the Featured Artist contest. Since then, I have found a community of creatives I love and enjoyed benefit of a solo show in L.A. Now I am a lifetime member, AND they are lifetime sponsors of this site. I can’t imagine not having these folks as a part of my creative life. It is amazing what $12.50 can do.
