CHOCOLATE
surprise
I am addicted to chocolate. And, I mistakenly assume that if it is chocolate, I will love it. Wrong. You can screw up chocolate. Milk chocolate is not my favorite version, but done well, there is a time and place for milk chocolate. But every once in a while, I am offered chocolate and it is grainy, infused with artificial flavors or so sweet that it makes my teeth hurt. It is always a reminder to mind what I put in my mouth–a warning that I assume is unnecessary for most people. This next Call could easily be assumed to be a painting call, but it isn’t. This is a great surprise…
Check out this Call for Entries from The Painting Center (NY, NY) for Working It Out, an exhibition of artists’ working drawings–generally kept private. The entry fee is standard, but this opportunity is extraordinary. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Working It Out
The Painting Center, a gallery in the heart of Chelsea, announces a call for entries for its upcoming juried exhibition entitled WORKING IT OUT, running from June 18th to July 13th, 2013.
Artists of all disciplines begin their creative process with preparatory drawings. This enables visual problem solving throughout the execution of an artwork that is both fluid and beautiful. Drawing can be an exploration of materials, mark making, the emotional tenor of a piece, compositional arrangements or color. Working drawings are the visual manifestation of a work in progress; a working idea. Typically, this work is not seen by the public.
These are private musings that reflect thought processes. They are, by definition, incomplete. This exhibition will allow the viewer to see the private world of the artist’s creative process.
ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists
MEDIA: Artists working in all media are encouraged to submit their working drawings.
DEADLINE: April 15, 2013
NOTIFICATION: April 25, 2013
ENTRY FEE: $35 for up to 5
