CALL for ENTRIES: Picture Book Show

Posted on April 8, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

WRAP UP
a cold one

My husband usually picks out his own beer. He’s a home brewer and more than a little picky about his commercially made beer. But, on occasion, I pick up a “Pick 6” pack from the grocery store. My rule of thumb is to pick 3 beers I’ve actually seen him consume, and the other 3 I pick out based on the design of the label. No joke. Works EVERY time. If you understand beer labels, then you might also know why it is no surprise when people judge a book by its cover. This next Call is just for you…

Check out this Call for Entries from the 3×3 Magazine for the Picture Book Show. I love this show. There are phenomenal designers and illustrators who never get their due. Maybe this is the chance…

CALL for ENTRIES: Ex Arte Equinus

HOLLANDAISE
HORSEY

In french cooking, sauce and knife skills are the beginning of all knowledge. You would be simply amazed by how many sauces start with a basic hollandaise. Similarly, horses are the foundation of many an art class. I had an art teacher that once said to me, “If you can master sketching a the complex form of the majestic horse, all of art is at your fingertips.” I never mastered sketching a horse, but I can make a mean hollandaise. Luckily, this next Call doesn’t require that I SKETCH a horse. Take a look…

Check out this great Call for Entries in Ex Arte Equinus brought to you by Art Horse Magazine. The fees are reasonable, and this in an excellent opportunity to get true value from Art Publications. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: For those of you out there familiar with being shunned from high-profile traditional shows for producing Digital Art, please note… this is your chance to get contemporary work into a more traditional format which is always a way to increase acceptance. It is worth a closer look, trust me.
