I love things in small packages.  For many of my friends it conjures images of little blue boxes from Tiffany’s.  For me, you can just send little blue boxes of Mariebelle chocolates and keep the jewels for yourself.  This next Call may inspire your own small package.

I have never met a good artist that didn’t have a mouthful of opinion and point-of-view.  And while a lot of you have taken to working in enormous sizes, a few of you still appreciate working compact. 

For years I worked in 12″x12″ for ease of shipping…nothing larger than dinner plate sized, ha.  Having a lot to say doesn’t necessarily mean you need a lot of space to say it in. 

Here’s a great Call for Entries  for works
12″x12″ and smaller.
