BLUE

I survived another holiday without eating blue food.  Why do people eat the blue food? Blue iced cookies & cakes are everywhere this time of year, so I am going to say this again… step away from the blue food.  The closest thing to naturally occurring blue food is squid ink.  Eat all the squid ink your heart desires, but please stop buying blue Jell-o, Koolaid, popsicles & icing.  You’re only encouraging them.  If you need to experience ALL the colors of the rainbow (including blue), try this next Call instead.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the R. Dixon Gallery (Seneca Falls, NY) for Color: vivid, vibrant & vital. Great space, good juror, low commission.  We know you will make us proud…

“I think the way we perceive color is our sixth sense.  I can taste lemon yellow.  I can feel the inherent nobility in imperial purple.  A pop of color?  Too tame …during this exhibit, the gallery walls will come alive with explosions of color!  As an artist, you likely have a special relationship with color.  Are your colors complementary or diametrically opposed?  It’s a question that we’re looking forward to seeing how you answer.” –from rdixongallery.com

APPLE
of my eye

New York, contrary to it’s TV persona, is not all bagels, pizza & hot dog vendors.  If fact, it may surprise you to learn that the apple is the state fruit.  NY even gives the apple muffin official status.  But an applewood smoked hot dog really wouldn’t hurt my feelings right now, ha.  This next Call wants to know YOUR thoughts about New York.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the R. Dixon Gallery (Seneca Falls, NY) for New York State of Mind. One of our readers, 2014 Featured Artist of the Year Emily Mitchell, was juried into their last show. Make us proud…

New York State of Mind

 

“All you have to do is say it out loud: New York. Almost everyone has an opinion about this loud, funny, wonderful place…including New Yorkers, of course. Whether you know New York from the perspective of the city, the people, the lakes, or the mountains, New York is as diverse as the people who live here. It’s where creativity and energy thrive…and evolve into that indescribable (though still recognizable), New York state of mind.

“The R Dixon Gallery invites you to visually express what New York means to you-whether you are born and bred, visit occasionally, or simply feel in sync with a New York sensibility.  Please submit original art that best expresses your unique and personal translation of the “New York State of Mind” theme.” –from rdixongallery.com

CALL for ENTRIES: Female Spirit

Did you know straws are a “girl thing”?  Me neither.  While grabbing a quick snack while shopping last week, a server looked at my son and husband and said, “I know straws are a girl thing, but I brought them for you guys too.”  Have I missed out on some American sub-culture subtlety about beverage consumption along the way?  I’m not certain how a straw can embody the female spirit; however, this next Call is asking for art that does just that.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the R. Dixon Gallery (Seneca Falls, NY) for By and About Women: celebrating the female spirit.  Deadline looming & this Call is NOT limited to female artists.  Consider a new gallery…
