sneaky SNACKS
Do you stop eating at a certain time at night? I have relapsed into late night snacking, and now I have a rock in my stomach every night when I am already struggling to sleep. Ahhhh. I go to sleep later, so I get up later, so I get into the studio later, so I get less done. If I could close my mouth, I could make more art. I think I’ve heard that before, ha.
I have been away from posting for a while because I have also been having a hard time keeping my mouth closed in this volatile poitical climate. It is helpful for me to remember that not everything is about me, and sometimes I just have to walk away. It is with that in mind that I remind you that this Call is not for all of you. I normally refrain from publishing regional calls; however, a significant number of AAAD subscribers live in this region. So, this Call isn’t for me, but it might be for you. This opportunity includes the main exhibit AND satellite exhibits. (And, please share this Call with your California friends and peers.)
Check out this Call for Entries from Richmond Art Center (Richmond, CA) for The Art of Living Black. This is a great multi-venue exhibition opportunity. $65/$75 entry & 40% commission. And, this is a great venue…
