CALL to ARTISTS: Farm, Winery & Bistro

Posted on January 20, 2014January 20, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

CHEERS
to you

There is very little in this world that I love as much as a glass of wine alongside a freshly-made pate. But red wine decided it didn’t like me a decade ago, and I’ve never been a fan of beef liver. So, what does one do? A beautiful white and a thrifty chicken liver pate. I smell a date night coming in all of this. In the meantime, this next Call offers a business excuse to drink wine. It’s all about the rationalization sometimes…

Check out this Call for Entries from Six Summit Gallery (Ivoryton, CT) for Farm, Winery & Bistro at Chamard Vineyards (Clinton, CT). This show offers a unique opportunity to possible design your own wine label. Be sure to check this out…

CORN
and then some

I’ve always been a label reader, but I’m starting to wonder if I should just severely limit the number of foods I eat that even HAVE a label. While searching for a gluten-free corn tortilla, I read this ingredient list on one of my favorites: Ground corn treated with lime, water, cellulose gum, propionic acid (to preserve freshness), benzoic acid (to preserve freshness), phosphoric acid (preservative), dextrose, guar gum, amylase. No thanks. I settled on one with this label: corn, lime, salt. That’s a little more like it. Know what you eat. This next Call will provide lots of great ideas, I suspect. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Reality & Metaphor

Posted on April 14, 2013April 22, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

TOP
banana

Apparently I speak food-ese. In the South, we speak in metaphors and euphemisms so often that I forget that not everyone gets it. While working on a real estate deal recently, my agent said, “Do you need to consult someone before we sign the contract?” My response was, “Nope, I’m the top banana. It’s a peach of a house, and if some prune doesn’t like it…Well, that’s just how the cookie crumbles.” She replied, “Did you miss lunch?” Hehehe. True story, I promise. This next Call is all about the Reality & Metaphor of it all. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Illumination of Imagination

Posted on October 13, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

TEA FOR ONE
coffee for none

My husband is a tea drinker, and it is my fault. So, I don’t like the smell of brewed coffee. (I hear the nasty emails being pecked out on keyboards across the world.) I haven’t drank a cup of coffee in 18+ years. I think brewed coffee smells like skunk spray. No joke. So for a long time, my husband used a French press because the odor was lessened. But then the plunger on the press broke, and neither of us ordered a new one. Now, he drinks Earl Grey every morning. I feel a little bad. (Not really.) Hobbits like tea, or so we are led to believe. You figure out how that is connected to this next Call by investigating for yourself…

Check out this Call for Entries from Six Summit Gallery (Ivoryton, CT) for Illumination of Imagination! The entry fee can be as low as $10. This could be a great opportunity for you to sell art AND the juror is very well documented. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: In the Pink

Posted on August 26, 2012August 26, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

red + white
=PINK

Pink food rocks. No really. Most pink foods start out as red foods (all yummy) that have had cream or some sort of cheese added. How could you go wrong? Vodka sauce, cream of tomato soup, strawberry cream cheese, raspberry smoothies. I could go on for paragraphs. This next Call is all about the pink. This is show to consider…
