CALL for ENTRIES: 47th Int’l Show

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

focused and FARE

I cheated on my husband with shrimp tacos.  He’s contact allergic to shellfish, and on the rare occasion I eat a meal without him, my radar is firmly set on shrimp.  I feel guilty while eating them, like I’ve cheated, and then have to go through a hazmat-style sterilization process afterward.  But, shrimp.

I had that shrimp-y luncheon with my a friend, an accomplished realist painter.  We spent time talking about our plans for the next weeks and months. She paints prolifically and noted, “I haven’t even been looking at Calls because I can’t do anything until Fall”.  Between work for galleries that represent her, a couple of invitational shows and a museum solo show that comes down this week, she can’t lose focus.  Realizing that kind of focus has been my goal for months, and I am beginning to see results, but it requires tuning out the things that don’t serve my focused goal. 

Are museum shows a part of your current plan?  If yes, check out this Call for Entries from Brownsville Museum of Fine Art (Brownsville, TX) for 47th International Art Show.  $45 entry & 30% commission, plus $3300 in cash awards.  Both jurors’ work is well documented, so do your homework!

eggs WATER pasta

My local water utility only serves 943 addresses.  The tiny service area results in excellent tasting water.  Water quality affects everything I cook, most notably iced tea, poached & boiled eggs, and pasta.  I move in two weeks to a different water system.  The countdown is on.  This next call depends on water too.  Show them your best…

STICKY SWEET

When I think of salt water taffy, I think of the mountains. Odd, eh? I suspect that salt water taffy got its start on seaside boardwalks, but it seems every small mountain town has a great little store front that lets you watch taffy being made. I know that here in Gatlinburg, there is more than one. I wonder if Blue Ridge, GA (home of this Call) has a taffy shop. Sounds like a great reason to attend the reception…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Southern Appalachian Artist Guild for their Annual National Juried Show which will be exhbiited in the Richard Low Evans Gallery in Blue Ridge, GA, one of “America’s Top Art Communities.” I know that discussing art sales is like talking about religion or politics in polite company (in bad taste), but I will say it anyway… this could be a great opportunity to sell some artwork.
