getting my
GOAT

I have a significant number of friends that simply won’t cook for me. They assume, based on my writing, that I might be too discerning. It is ridiculous and unfounded, of course. I eat everything (except wheat). But many of them have read enough of my posts to feel safe if they always include a stinky cheese. And, a handful of them have read my posts closely enough to know that goat cheese is proverbial gold. If you only get one chance to make a first impression, goat cheese is always the gold standard. This next Call gives you an opportunity to see if your work is the gold standard. Please take this chance…

Check out this Call for Entries from Yamana Gold (Toronto, Ontario) for Passion to Perform. There is NO entry fee, but you only get one shot–one entry. I usually give gentle nudges to my readers, but this time, I’m just going to say it. No fee, phenomenal prizes, possible purchase awards AND they pay to ship the work. Please do your homework, take a chance, and give it a shot…

Because you know I’ve been a foodie for so many years, it should come as no surprise that my weight has fluctuated for decades. I have been everything from a size 8 to a size 24 over the years. I have given up carbs, given up fat, eaten only fruit, eaten only soup… You name it, and I’ve tried it. Nothing ever worked for long. Then I was forced to quit eating wheat, and my weight stabilizes. Go figure. I’m not a size 8, or a 24, but I haven’t gained or lost more than 2 lbs in 8 months. This next Call is all about YOUR figure. Take a look…

sweet
AVOCADO?

My culinary specialty is making meals out of whatever I happen to find in the cabinets and making it seem purposeful. Sure, I can make chocolate mousse out of an avocado, cocoa and honey.

And, while most folks won’t think the kit from this Call is perfect to create a masterpiece, you’ll have all the ingredients; just make it work. Take a look…

RECIPE

Everyone I know makes at least one dish that makes people ask, “How do you make that?” Mine has changed over the years from hollandaise sauce to creamed spinach to 40 spice hummus.

CALL for ENTRIES: Embracing our Differences

how the
COOKIE
crumbles

I am amazed by the difference in food preferences in my own household. I thought I had everyone brainwashed to think only as I do about food. But alas, they have escaped my grasp. My son prefers Ranch dressing, and my husband will choose oatmeal raisin cookies over chocolate chip any day. I have learned to embrace our difference; after all, that leaves more chocolate chip cookies for me. This next Call allows YOU to embrace differences as well. Take a look…

FEATURED ARTIST: Robyn Thompson

Posted on October 24, 2013November 6, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

eyes
& EARS
wide open

Hurray! Our first featured artist since August comes from August & September entries to the Featured Artist Contest. I needed something new, something uncommon, or maybe just to revisit something with a different eye… like flint corn once all the summer ears have disappeared. Guess what? I got exactly that…

This month’s artist works is a an intentional painter that developed, almost by accident, into a photographer. I appreciate the exuberance and optimism in this work –an opportunity to look with a new perspective, fresh eyes, if you will.

On behalf of ArtAndArtDeadlines.com, I am proud to announce the Featured Artist chosen from the August & September entries is Robyn Thompson. I find this work to be…a nod to a little something different.

AAAD FEATURED ARTIST:
Robyn Thompson

__

RoByn began her journey as an artist by being a face painter. She soon sought larger canvases and has been exploring the world of body painting for over a decade. She very much appreciates the support of her wonderful body painting models because without their bodies she would have nothing to paint on!

She initially painted bodies for several prominent photographers before picking up the camera herself. Now she enjoys the creative control of the process from initial sketch of the body paint design through the painting process culminating in capturing the images on her trusty Nikon.

RoByn’s artwork has been seen in such diverse places as the cover of Time Out New York, the Tyra Banks Show, HBO’s Flight of the Concords and Time Magazine’s website.

Are you self taught or formally instructed? “I have a BA in visual arts. I barely graduated and didn’t really get much out of school. I was young and single parenting a toddler on the autism spectrum so it really wasn’t my priority. My areas of concentration were ceramic sculpture and paper making. I haven’t touched either in a couple of decades. I didn’t take a single drawing or painting class but really wish that I had. The things I learned aren’t relevant to my current work and I learned not a single thing about the marketing of art.”

Why paint bodies, such a temporary canvas? And, was the photography a way to have a more permanent format to exhibit? “I’ve never had a formal painting class. I was initially intimidated by the idea of painting on canvas. It’s such a permanent thing. I really embraced the temporary nature of body painting and found it very freeing. It was ok to take chances because it would all be gone tomorrow.

“I initially worked with photographers as a way to document my work. I learned photography as a way to get the images more like I wanted them. Exhibition has never been the focus. I just do what I do because I have a need to do it.

“Body painting is actually a very, very small part of what I do these days. I’ve just finished shooting an inclusive nude tarot deck using light painting. The 81 cards have models ranging from 18 to 76 and from under 100 to over 300 lbs.”

Your work is both fantastical AND oddly organic. Talk to me about your inspiration. “I like transformation. I like ambiguity. I like magic. Body painting got its start as a magical religious thing. I want to bring that back.”

Why the objection to touching up you work in Photoshop? What would this technological aid change for you about what makes you work your own?

“I think that Photoshop is often used as a shortcut or as a cheat. When I was working with photographers, I had my body painting Photoshopped several times without permission. I’ve seen body painters use it to fix blotchy spots or shaky lines. I think it compromised the integrity of the work. It is easier to fix something in post rather than do it right the 1st time.

“My strong anti-Photoshop bias but me in the minority, but I am not alone on this. I’ve seen instances of photos being disqualified from competitions because of unscrupulous Photoshopping. In the light painting world, Photoshop is pretty much frowned upon. That said, I think it’s an amazing tool.” *Editor’s Note: Since my work is dependent upon photo editing, I clearly disagree.

What style or school of art do you think your work fits into and why? “I don’t know where my work fits. It’s a problem for me with trying to get my work out. I feel like our current system encourages artists to be pigeon-holed within a specific medium or genre. Life is too short. I want to explore and play.

“I think doing what I’m doing feeds my soul
and likely hurts my pocketbook.”

You know we have to talk about food. What is your favorite? “I’m a chocoholic who is trying to go sugar-free so I’ve cut out chocolate among many, many things. I think for the shear sensuousness of it, nothing beats eating a mango naked. Smoked Gouda also rocks my world.” A life without chocolate isn’t worth living, Robyn.

What about snack foods? “Chocolate. Hands down. Chocolate pudding. Ohhhhhhhhh, warm chocolate pudding with just a dash of milk.” Either she gave up her sugar ban already or she’s snackless. Let’s hope for the former.

So, what’s coming up next for you? “I’ve just finished getting the tarot deck ready for publication, and I have 4 new series that I’ve just gotten the necessary supplies for. Two of them involve 3d constructions of dreams. The 3rd is a photographic series that is my take on the classical vanitas or memento mori. And, there’s also a project that I just worked out the concepts for that involve stuffed animals from one’s childhood. Body painting and painting with light photography both continue to interest me, so I’ll keep doing that. I also remain fascinated with fractals kaleidoscopes & glitches so you can expect them to pop up somewhere. And because, I am a madwoman, I try to do a painting a day. ”

Robyn, thanks for sending me something new…I needed it.

judgement and
JUNK

I write a whole lot of crap about food. Most of it is just an off the cuff note about whatever is going on in my kitchen. But it is NEVER meant as a judgment about the way YOU eat. One of FB friends updated her status yesterday with a comment about how people who eat cheese, fruit and veggies cold, as opposed to room temp, have clearly given up on life and are just eating garbage. Really? I am sorry my cold strawberry has flagged me as a useless garbage eater. So, I want to be clear. No judgement from me. Do I want you to eat creme-filled snack cakes? No. Do I love you any less for it? No, I’m just a little jealous. This next Call is an for an all hung exhibit. No judgement there either…
