STRAWBERRIES

Do you peel tomatoes? I have a friend that doesn’t like “edges” on her food. No joke. She does the standard stuff like no crust on bread, but she also peels EVERY fruit & vegetable–strawberries, grapes, and yes, even tomatoes. I peel kiwi, bananas & canteloupe, but some stuff really is just easier to eat. Is it just me? This next Call wants ALL your edges (and curves). Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Haggus Society (Los Angeles, CA) for the Edges & Curves 4 . $12.50 is one of the lowest entry fees you’ll ever see. The Haggus Society is a sponsor of AAAD, and I am also a member. The theme is open; please enter & make us proud…

CALL
for ENTRIES:
Edges & Curves 4

Challenging the myth that cutting edge art is created only by young artists, The Haggus Society & Julie Montenegro State Farm, are hosting Edges & Curves 4.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to artists age 40+

MEDIA: 2D art (no larger than 32″ x 44″) & small 3D art (no larger than 14″ x 10″ x 8″)

DEADLINE: June 1, 2015

NOTIFICATION: June 5, 2015

ENTRY FEE: $12.50 for non-members. No entry fee for Hags.

JUROR: Terri Lloyd is a San Francisco Bay Area transplant who has called Los Angeles home since 1980. Under the influence of a Sixties latch-key-kid youth, the circumstances of a working class life did not provide the conventional means to an art education or experience. Introduced to the Apple computer in the 1980s, a love affair with digital technology was born. Lloyd’s career has been a two-pronged path between fine & commercial arts.

In 2010, Lloyd retired from the commercial arts path to pursue a lifelong interest of fine arts. She continues to become more active as a leader in community arts organizations and activities. When not working in the studio, Lloyd runs The Haggus Society, a feminist art collective for women over the age of 40.

SALES: The Haggus Society does not automatically take a commission; however, a small donation in the event of sales would be appreciated. Please include this in your pricing. If a work is not for sale please indicate with NFS.

*Just one other note. I showed work in the first Edges & Curves exhibit after meeting Terri Lloyd through the Featured Artist contest. Since then, I have found a community of creatives I love and enjoyed benefit of a solo show in L.A. Now I am a lifetime member, AND they are lifetime sponsors of this site. I can’t imagine not having these folks as a part of my creative life. It is amazing what $12.50 can do.

CALL for ENTRIES: Downeast

Posted on January 15, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

EAST WEST
food divide

Food, like language & art, is often just a matter of perspective. When I say Eastern food, does that conjure images of Chinese take out or Carolina BBQ? Does Western food conjure images of Tex-Mex or a California roll? It is all perspective For the record, MY answers would be BBQ & sushi. To be clear, this next “Downeast” Call refers to the Carolina, but it is open to everyone. And, now I want BBQ. Pick me up some pulled pork if you go to the opening. Take a look…

EGGY

How is it that quiche became girly food? I was at a cafe recently that specializes in quiche. The waitress was reciting the day’s specials to a neighboring table of guests when the man interrupted her to say, “I’m not interested in quiche; I’m a MAN.” Really? It is eggs, cream and cheese. I thought, “Maybe it is due to the pie form.” But, men eat pie, right? I don’t understand his reasoning, but I restrained myself from asking for the sake of the man sitting at my table. Maybe this next Call is looking for the quiche-goodness in women only. Maybe. Investigate…

I am early for almost nothing. As I have gotten older, I am far better at being on time, but I still JUST make it most of the time. As you might imagine, this doesn’t make for great breakfast. Luckily, my spouse is the king of egg breakfast. We go through DOZENS of eggs each week. So the early bird…gets to cook in my house. This next Call offers benefits for being early. So, don’t procrastinate…

The art in my kitchen is more commonly viewed than any other work in my house. Maybe it is because I spend a lot of time waiting for potatoes to boil and onions to caramelize and cheesecake to bake–actual cheesecake pictured left. My collection ranges from diary collage applied to toasters to beautiful textural miniature abstracts to large flying pigs. This next Call could help you get your work in someone else’s kitchen.

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’…
