CALL for ENTRIES: Illumination of Imagination

Posted on October 13, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

TEA FOR ONE
coffee for none

My husband is a tea drinker, and it is my fault. So, I don’t like the smell of brewed coffee. (I hear the nasty emails being pecked out on keyboards across the world.) I haven’t drank a cup of coffee in 18+ years. I think brewed coffee smells like skunk spray. No joke. So for a long time, my husband used a French press because the odor was lessened. But then the plunger on the press broke, and neither of us ordered a new one. Now, he drinks Earl Grey every morning. I feel a little bad. (Not really.) Hobbits like tea, or so we are led to believe. You figure out how that is connected to this next Call by investigating for yourself…

Check out this Call for Entries from Six Summit Gallery (Ivoryton, CT) for Illumination of Imagination! The entry fee can be as low as $10. This could be a great opportunity for you to sell art AND the juror is very well documented. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Emotion

Posted on October 10, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

CHEESY
love

I am emotionally attached to goat cheese. I recognize how very irrational that is, but the fact remains that “I love goat cheese.” I dream about it. Eating herb-crusted goat cheese on freshly-backed foccacia with a few capers is the height of emotional eating for me. It can take away almost ANY bad day. No joke. Luckily, my bad days are not too frequent, ha. This next Call wants to know about your Emotional quirks. Don’t miss this chance…

Check out this Call to Artists for Emotion from the Linus Galleries (California). The exhibit offers an online listing as well as the possibility for a showing in one of their brick and mortar galleries. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: 9×12 in 2012

Posted on October 3, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

LAZY NIGHTS

I had salmon “en papillote” tonight. Fear not, it just means “in parchment”. Contrary to what you might think, it is not the French-cool-factor that leads me down the path of parchment cooking. (Okay, maybe a little.) The real reason is because it is healthy since it requires so little fat. Okay, that’s a lie too. The truth? There is virtually no cleanup. No dirty saute pans. Yep, laziness has lead to French cooking. Go figure. This next Call is all about the paper too. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Fort Worth Community ARTS Center (Fort Worth, TX) for 9 x 12 Works on Paper Show. The entry fee is only $5 per piece, and the commission rate is only 25%. This is a great opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES: Hit the Road

Posted on September 20, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

WHY DID the CHICKEN
cross the road?

The best part of hitting the open road is, of course, the FOOD. My practice is to spend a little time surveying the locals of where we are about the best place to eat. Inevitably, I get a significant number of people that refer me to the same place. And it always ends up being “the best breakfast” or “the best burger” in town. Getting eggs right isn’t easy, folks, and I always appreciate a good reference. This next Call is all about hitting the road. Investigate for yourself…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Hit the Road

The road ahead, the road behind, the open road, simply the road.

Always the metaphor for life, always the subject of art, the road is what we want to see or all things related.

Submit your best road art for this future exhibition.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists.

MEDIA: Photography, wall sculpture, fabric, mixed media, painting, drawing. It must be able to be hung on a wall to be considered. Sizes up to 12 feet art acceptable.

CALL for ENTRIES: Collectors Choice

Posted on September 11, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

TWO, FOUR, SIX
and ATE

I collect food-specific dishes. Weird, I know. I have ceramic turtles for wasabi, three-legged lava rock bowls for salsa, futuristic pods for olives, individual berry bowls, and there will be more. (Maybe these egg cups). Always the proper tool for the job, you could say. This next Call is really ALL about the collectors. See if this one is right for you…

Here’s an interesting Call for Entries from the Sylvia White Gallery in Ventura, California for the 2013 Collectors’ Choice. I am intrigued, this is a great opportunity for a few of you, but the challenge is in figuring out if YOUR work is something this anonymous group of collectors want. Investigate for your self…

CALL for ENTRIES:
2013 Collectors’ Choice

ELIGIBILITY:
Open to all artists 18+

MEDIA: Paintings, mixed media, paper, photography, sculpture, installation, digital, video and performance.

DEADLINE: November 15, 2012 at 11:00 pm Pacific Standard Time (PST) / Midnight, Mountain Standard Time (MST)

ENTRY FEE: $35 (USD) for 3 images, $5 each additional image, maximum 10.

JURORS: Each art collector may select one or more pieces by artists that are not currently represented in their private collection. Collectors’ names will be kept anonymous until the opening reception. Editor’s Note: My assumption is these are collectors that purchase work in the Sylvia White Gallery. Because they are anonymous, the best recommendation I have for research is to spend some time investigate the artists the gallery represents, since in theory, it is their work these collectors are purchasing–at least in part.

AWARDS: Selected artists will participate in 2013 Collector’s Choice January 2-February 9, at Sylvia White Gallery.

SALES: Unless otherwise specified, accepted works will be considered for sale at the price indicated and 30% commission will be retained by The Sylvia White Gallery.

CALL for ENTRIES: Shadows

Posted on September 10, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

OUCH! OUCH!
OUCH!

I dislike overhead lighting, except in the kitchen. Much of my home is dimly lit; I prefer soft lamp lighting. But, my art studio and my kitchen are the exceptions. I’ve injured myself with everything from an Xacto knife to myriad of small and large chef knives. Lessons learned. Shadows are not the best place to create fine art or fine food. This next Call wants you to expose your shadows. Whatcha think?

CALL for ENTRIES:
Shadows

As Joni Mitchell said, “Every picture has it’s shadows, and it has some source of light. Blindness, blindness and sight.”

Some see light and some see shadow.

Some see contrasts.

Some see the darkness.

What exists in the shadows? What do you see? Submit your best art with shadows for this future exhibition.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists.

MEDIA: Photography, wall sculpture, fabric, mixed media, painting, drawing.

Art Every Day 2 U

The intent is to showcase one work from a different featured artist every day, with the feature piece somehow tied in to something about the day – a holiday, a famous person’s birthday, an event in history, etc.

“Although I can’t promise to feature everyone who submits, there will be absolutely no charge – ever – to the artist for the feature, so it’s a good opportunity for a no cost resume builder – my only request is that artists follow the blog so I can start to build up some audience. Anyone featured in the first 6 months will get priority for re-feature later once we’ve got an audience built up.” –Paula Shaughnessy, Editor

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All mediums are eligible, although she is partial to non-digital work: paint, sculpture, photography & mixed media. No religion, election stuff, nudity or language that would make her “mama blush” Everything else is fair game. Editor’s Note: I GET that many of you are not well behaved enough work inside these guidelines.

DEADLINE: On going

NOTIFICATION: No time frame

ENTRY FEE: None

AWARDS: Your work featured on Art Every Day 2 U.

TO ENTER: Send 1 image of your work, your name & links to your webpage to paula.shaughnessy@yahoo.com. One entry per artist.

A Season for…
everything

There are monthly featured foods at my house. Last month is was asparagus ($1.99/lb). This month it appears to be broccoli (2 double crowns for $3). We’re heading toward Autumn, and I’ll be eating $1 butternut squash for at least 2 months. It is all about eating what’s in season. It is cheaper, healthier, and yummier. Think of it as a seasonal treat. This next Call is all about the upcoming season, and it’s a treat too! Take a look…

Pink food rocks. No really. Most pink foods start out as red foods (all yummy) that have had cream or some sort of cheese added. How could you go wrong?
