CALL for ENTRIES: Birds

CHICKY

When I was pregnant, I couldn’t eat anything that looked like a bird. The smell of fresh-roasted chicken made me ill. And, while I could eat a chicken nugget or bad, food-service breaded chicken patty, the mere sight of a drumstick would make me violently ill. At the time, I worked behind the cheese counter at The Gourmet Shop–which was, and still is, famous for the hundreds of pounds of chicken salad they make & sell everyday. That job didn’t last long. This next Call IS NOT for roasted birds; I suspect they would prefer imagery of birds that are still very much alive. Just sayin’…

FRIENDLY FRUIT
in a small world

Grocery shopping is often a small world experience for me. I’ll be thinking of having teriyaki wings, and my husband will come home with the chicken. Or, I’ll be dreaming of pineapple-infused rice for my salmon, and my stop at the grocery store with produce a beautifully ripe pineapple that just happens to be on sale. I’m just lucky that way, I suppose. Just the other day, I was thinking of a couple of pieces I saw in someone’s personal art collection, and what do you know–the juror pops up in this call. It’s a small world…

PASTA

Today I spied organic alphabet soup in the grocery store. There is some humor to be found in the idea that someone invested in eating organically would also want a food so tortured & processed that it can spell out words. And, I don’t believe anyone is REALLY teaching their children to read with soup. So do we really need to communicate with food, literally, or am I just a huge hypocrite for constantly preach about the transformative & communicative power of food? Okay, I’m a hypocrite, ha. But, this next Call speaks to the power of text; however, I suspect they are not searching for alphabet pasta mosaics. Check out this fantastic venue…

ELIGIBILITY: Open to artists of all genders.

MEDIA: Text based work in all media will be considered.

I double most of the recipes for soups, stews & casseroles. My child takes his lunch everyday, and despite working from my home office, I don’t have the time to make lunch everyday.

MOUTH

I dislike the semantics of having an “open mind”. Doesn’t that, quite literally, mean that anything can go in and out? I don’t want that for my mind any more than I want that for my menu. I simply will not abide even a “devil’s advocate” argument on some subjects anymore because for me, wrong is wrong. I feel the same way about food. I’ve tried an impossibly large number of foods over the years. I will not even entertain the possibility of tasting some foods anymore. Grubs might be fantastic or even taste like my favorite stinky cheese, but I won’t be eating them, EVER. Call me closed-minded AND closed-mouthed in this respect. Luckily, this next show is wide open. Investigate…

sometimes an EGG
is more than an EGG

The creative are often food obsessed. I am not alone. Food is a common experience for us all, but I find that creative people tend to purposefully try to indulge all the senses at once–musicians, writers, dancers AND visual artists. So how perfect is this next Call that centers around a slightly food-obsessed musician. If you don’t know his work (Eggs & Sausage is one of my favorites, but Chocolate Jesus was infamously controversial), do your homework…you won’t be sorry.

Check out of this Call for Entries from the Arc Studios & Gallery (San Francisco, CA) for Like a Tom Waits Song. This is one of the most unique themes I have ever published. Fascinating…

Like a Tom Waits Song

This open call is for all artists who have found themselves deeply moved, enraptured, bemused or inspired by Tom Waits. Has his music ever transported you to a dusty desert town or an abandoned train yard or a glowing, gritty neon rainy city street filled with steam? Listening to his music do you come away from the experience with a flash of inspiration embodying his lyrics? Like Tom Waits, do you tell tall tales and spin yarns with your work?

The range of work includes paintings, works on paper, photography and sculpture.

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.

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…
