NUTRITION
I have a food tattoo. Not surprised, are you? It wasn’t meant to be a food tattoo. I spent a week in NYC while in the area for my grad school interviews. So, I went to the Big Apple and decided the perfect souvenir would be to come home with a little apple. Ridiculous, I know. I’ve thought about expanding on the food theme, but I’d rather spend my money on food than tattoos, ha. Plus, I’m a wimp when it comes to pain. This next Call is interested on what’s on the body, not just tattoos. Take a look…
Check out this Call for Entries from Gallery 263 (Cambridge, MA) for the On the Body. The entry fee is only $25, and the space is beautiful. Investigate this space…
