for miles

I cannot eat enough watermelon these days. And, I am intrigued by the variances.  My town has ONE grocery store, and the markings indicate that most of the watermelons they carry come from a single source.  So how is it that 3 melons of equal ripeness bought on 3 different days taste SO different?  One is super sweet, one in grainy & one is ripe, but tangy.  This next Call is for Still Life where the presence of fruit is ubiquitous.  Did you every notice how rarely you see watermelon in those paintings?  Contemplate that when you choose your subject matter…

I have conquered my peach fur issues.  If you’re a regular reader, you know I have issues with peach fur because it makes peaches look live living, furry-skinned beings.  Creepy.  Lesson learned: if you scrub hard enough, you CAN get the fur off.  I don’t know why I can eat deep fried chicken and pork skin, but somehow I get the willies when I bite into a peach.  Weird, admittedly.  This next call shines a whole different light on skin.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Squing & Oup (online) for Skin Ego.  This is an inexpensive online art competition from a site that offers artists grants and an opportunity for exposure.  Think of it as an online art publication.  I think it is a good risk for $15…how ’bout you?

Squing & Oup – Skin Ego

 

Complete with orifice, organ and envelope, our bodies house microcosms of experience—all subject to unyielding flux, forming a shifting scape of cumulative geography and psychology. The boundary between the internal and external world is a continuous, flexible, regenerating surface, protecting and covering vulnerable machines— our skin.

Mediating everything in our lives, skin is key to biology, sensory experiences, information gathering, and psychology. Throughout millions of years, we have exposed, veiled, decorated, cleansed, healed and marred our skin to take on new roles of social metaphor. No longer presumable, but personal, skin is a tapestry speaking of our individuality, challenging us to investigate the meaning of permeable boundaries.

Check out the Current Exhibition at Squing and Oup!For this art exhibition, Squing & Oup is seeking artwork embodying the skin ego—examining the politics and psychology of emotion, evolution, exploration, environment and expression.

Had a roasted garlic quiche for breakfast.  HELLOOOO, GARLIC. Remember, my attitude toward life is often like my taste in food…direct, unapologetic and undiplomatic. Can food be unapologetic and undiplomatic? Absolutely.  My garlic breath is proof, no doubt? That sort of straight forwardness is what drew me to this next Call. Investigate…
