CALL for ENTRIES: 47th Int’l Show

Posted on January 21, 2019January 19, 2019 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!

CALL for ENTRIES: Persistence

Posted on January 20, 2019January 19, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

the need for CHEESE

I had emergency ravioli last weekend. Well, I had emergency oral surgery. It was every bit as awful as that sounds, but necessary. Since my husband & son both have Celiac disease, so true Italian pasta deliciousness is an uncommon sight in my house. But after all the soup and oatmeal I could stand, I was craving comfort food that wouldn’t make me hate life later. I tried everything in my house, one after the other, foods were too hot, too cold, to crunchy, too crispy, too bland, too sticky. And then there was delivery cheese ravioli. It was like the clouds parted. Divine.

If only all such persistence paid dividends, right? Sometime persistence in art leads to over-working. I’ve put a lot of holes in a lot of paper, and even a few canvases, over the years. The outcome of political persistence has varied over the years from victory parties to concession speeches, rallies to protests, elections to resignation. What drives your artist persistence? What is the benchmark you trying to pass or surpass? Is it a resume qualifier? Is it a sales or publication goal? Is it a signature body of work or finding your voice? It is all of those things for me, but somewhere tied up in all of those things is belief in my own legitimacy as an artist. Again, what drives your artist persistence?

Today’s Call celebrates the persistence of women by celebrating female artists. Take a look to see if this one is right for you. This Call for Entries from the d’Art Center (Norlfolk, VA) for Persistence: A National Exhibition Celebrating Women’s Empowerment. I’m happy to publish a Call that welcomes both fine art & fine craft. Do you have work for this Call?

COCO-nutty

Most of my secret foods are trashy, throw-away garbage foods, but occasionally a decent one sneaks into the mix. I’m not going to lay claim to avocados because they are, when applied to toast, apparently the damnation of an entire generation. It does seem, however, that coconut milk makes into into all my favorite dishes from tom kha gai, Thai coconut soup with chicken, which is in the slower cooker for tonight, to two-ingredient, decadent dark chocolate pudding, mango sticky rice or peanut chicken Buddha bowls. I use it in everything. Its presence in my pantry represents opportunity.

One month from today, I’ll be spending my first full day in residence in Cromarty, Scotland, giving me the time and space to pursue a work direction that I might never otherwise get an opportunity to try. (I will do my best to post at night when my work days are complete.) And, by the time I return, my husband will have completed some portion of the renovation work on my new 10’x20′ storage shed studio. Again, opportunity. I am shoving aside the pressure to produce and the expectation of a certain look of success, and I am concentrating solely on appreciating the opportunity. The rest, I will figure out as I encounter it.

This next Call also represents opportunity on a larger scale. This is a tiny application fee for a Call from a publicly-funded, non-profit venue for multiple gallery spaces in a range of sizes (diagram provided in Call). They only ask for 5 to 10 images to consider, and the commission rate for sales is very reasonable. This is an active venue for arts-programming, so you’re assured a certain level of visibility. The catch? You have to deliver and install the work in Durham, NC. So, for many of you, this would be considered a regional call. I think it is worth the drive, so don’t dismiss the idea until you’ve fully read the Call.

Check out this Call for Entries from Durham Arts Council (Durham, NC) for Annual Call for Artists 2019-2020. $15 entry fee & 30% commission. This is a great venue…

CALL for ENTRIES: Shame

Posted on January 14, 2019January 13, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

parking lot PICNIC

Shame eaters raise your hands, or avert your eyes, whichever is most comfortable. I shame eat junk food while I am running errands. I could go inside and order and eat my less-than-healthy food and eat with the rest of the herd, but instead, I convince myself that I’m in a hurry, so I’d better get it to go. Then, I end up taking the same amount of time to eat sitting in the parking lot inhaling my $1.69 chicken nuggets with buffalo sauce and an occasional milkshake. In theory shame could be a healthy preventative for discouraged behavior. But I really just find ways to limit the exposure of my shame to others, hence the parking lot shame eating.

Shame is far more often an unhealthy tool of abuse, or self-abuse, taking the shine off a source of pride or casting shadow over behavior considered ordinary in other circumstances. For example, I had oral surgery recently, and as part of the get-to-know-you-before-I-cut-you-open session, the doc asked “so, what do you do for a living?” I replied, “I’m an artist” while quickly diverting my eyes in expectation of some version of the “what’s your real job” follow up question. But, I self-shamed myself into that expectation. He, instead, asked about my media, asked additional follow up questions, and shared the media of a couple of his other patients. In this particular case, my expectation of being treated as illegitimate led to my behaving as illegitimate. How many of you avoid describing yourself as an artist to non-creatives? We have to stop. There’s always something new to work on. This next Call is all about shame in all of its many manifestations. What would your shame work look like?

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists 18+

MEDIA: Open to all media

THEME: Shame. “The exhibition SHAME attempts to lift the veils of submission and silence by exploring shame in its many dimensions . . . . To feel shame is an act of self-erasure. To be shamed is a means of controlling others. To act shamelessly is a misguided path of self-empowerment. Shame has different cultural connotations yet is understood universally.”

CALL for ENTRIES: Fantastic Fibers 2019

Posted on January 9, 2019January 6, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

I YAM what I yam

I make fantastic mashed potatoes. No, really, I do. My husband wants to know why I refuse to share my technique, but he secretly suspects it is the volume of butter involved. I can neither confirm or deny. My favorites to mash are these tiny little orange sweets I get from Aldi. I bake them (that’s the real secret) before adding butter & other goodies. I prefer to puree them in my food processor, but I am usually too lazy to wash it afterwards, so I whip them with my hand mixer instead. Whatever variety of sweet potato that Aldi has been carrying lately seems to have almost no stringy fibers to untangle from my beaters. Add a hint of nutmeg, and it is like a spoonful of Thanksgiving every time. They are great in place of rice for bowl full of stir fried root vegetables on a rainy day.

I am hyper aware of fiber lately, I suppose because of the embroidery or mark making with thread that has become a defining characteristic in my work. The work I am loving most these days is fiber. Rug tufting. Ombré string instillation. Simply over-stitched paper collages. I come from a family of quilters, and I love to sew. It isn’t a huge leap. I honestly can’t believe my own work didn’t “go there” before now. I think I felt that I couldn’t measure up as a quilter (imposter syndrome again). I still don’t know how it developed; one day I just started stitching over my paintings. Now they are incomplete without stitching. In the meantime, no one, including me, really considers my work fiber art; therefore, I may be stuck in the mixed media category forever. This next show is fiber specific. I’ve been to this show multiple years, and it is awe inspiring. Thousands of people flock to this show, and it features an ever-evolving range of work both aesthetically and narratively challenging. I want to be a part of this evolution someday. If you do this work, please be sure to do this show.

CALL for ENTRIES: Scapes 2019

Posted on January 8, 2019January 5, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

WATER you up to?

It feels like it has been raining forever and may just never stop. Ever. I’ve never had a green thumb, but my grandmother tried to teach me the basic. I remember almost nothing she taught me except leaves turn yellow when you over water, and nothing is more exciting than the burst of the seed pod of a touch-me-not. So, while I can grow herbs on a windowsill, my dream of having a sustainable farming endeavor is a lost cause. But many of my friends are out there trying only to eat what they grow.

Realistically what do you grow end the land of never ending rain? Apparently taro thrives even in water logged conditions for up to weeks at a time. I could live on taro chips, right? Maybe not. Luckily I can still canoe to my local grocer. The rain is also making me hyperbolic, ha. I could paint the rain, I suppose, or gather rainwater to feed my watercolors for this next landscape call. I then I could use the prize money to buy aquaponic supplies.

CALL for ENTRIES: Dairy Arts Annual

Posted on January 7, 2019January 5, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

you’re the ZEST!

The hourglass on citron is running low. Citron (aka Buddha’s hand) is that freaky-looking fingered citrus fruit that is commonly found in fruitcake and other holiday baked confections. It is lovely candied and turns a gorgeous shade of lemon yellow. Not panicked about the days slipping away? You’d better be certain, because it is only available a few months of the year, and January is the last of them in most places. So what happens if I need it in June? I wait; that’s what. If you miss this next call, YOU will also have to wait.

That’s the problem with waiting until you’re ready. Artists are often, by nature, too busy or too focused or too single-minded to be looking forward by months, much less years. So, we are cast as procrastinators even if the part doesn’t quite fit. I am you; we are all you. It is easy to say “next time” when you feel unprepared, or worse yet, suffering from a reliable case of impostor syndrome. But we’re never ready enough or prepared enough or qualified enough.

This next Call is for solo exhibit opportunities in 2020 at a public art center in Boulder, Colorado, a popular arts location. Why this call? First, they only ask for 4 to 7 images, not 20. You’ve got 4 images, right? Next, they offer a map of their galleries. Why is this important? Because their galleries are numerous and of varying size, including some lobby and corridor spaces that are manageable, regardless of how prepared you feel right now. You can’t wait until you re ready because then you’ll have to wait 2 years. And, what if you don’t get in the first time? You’ll feel more prepared and less nervous the second time, not “next time”. I get that not every opportunity is right for every artist, but if you’re going to NOT enter, be certain you’re CHOOSING not to enter, not letting the fear or insecurity choose for you.

Check out this Call for Entries from Dairy Arts Center (Boulder, CO) for 2020 Exhibition Opportunities. $35 submission fee with as few as 4 images. Is this your next step? This is a great venue…

CALL for ENTRIES: Saturated

Posted on January 6, 2019January 6, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

oh, KALE no!

Somebody help me love kale. I want to love love kale (in some other manner than deep fried kale chips, ha)., but I just don’t. If I’m gonna eat a leafy green, I’m gonna choose spinach every time. Give me arugula or chard. Meanwhile, organic kale was 99¢ a pound this week. It is a gorgeous color though. I’ve been toying with making my own watercolors. Maybe THAT is how I learn to love kale.

For years I worked in black and white, and I loved the big, bold graphic nature of that work. But, color. Color has turned my work around. I fell so in love with color that I changed media after TWENTY years. Like any grade schooler, I get that yellow + blue = green. But, when you find the right gambogue hue & add just a touch of thalo blue, you get to watch them bloom into a gorgeous shade of peacock. This newly found watercolor magic gives power & voice to what I tried to represent literally with typography and b&w symbolism for all those years.

I’ve tried to be more transparent over the past weeks about my own “which” & “why” & “what” questions because I am hoping my answers will help you formulate your own questions and discover your own answers. The Barrett Arts Center is a “yes” for me. Beautiful venue, great jurors, superb curatorial history, excellent resume builder. I have been working on a piece for months that would be the perfect piece to enter. If I can just keep myself on track to finish, I am entering this one. Do you have color you want to strut out like a proud peacock? Then THIS is a great call.

Posted on December 31, 2018January 5, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

CUCUMBER and berries

Between granola and smoothies, I am on a constant hunt for decent fruit. This time of year, it is a challenge. The strawberries are horrific, fibrous little lumps. Bananas are great for smoothies but don’t dry well without sulfites. Cucumbers & pineapples are rocking my smoothies, but FRESH fruit is a struggle. (Yes, I can hear how that sounds.) Blueberries have saved me lately. They are relatively cheap and work in cereal and for pancakes & smoothies. If anyone has recommendations on how to dry them, I’m open to ideas. This next Call wants your blue solutions…

So why do you consider this online gallery, art publication opportunity? Well, here are some questions: Do you need a low risk, low cost way to test new, experimental work? Are you looking to drive traffic to your website and create organic content for social media posts? And, there’s the grant money. Do you want the opportunity to be awarded grant money? ha. Is this opportunity right for you? Only you can know. The deadline looms VERY CLOSE — January 7th.

CALL for ENTRIES: Women Artists

Posted on December 29, 2018January 6, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

COLD complication

As winter approaches, I am more & more distracted. I buy a handful of pantry items for single recipes. For example, I use canned cream-style corn in one indulgent corn pudding recipe and buttermilk only in cornbread. But, the problem arises because they look like similar items in the cupboard –anything canned or my regular milk. You only have to put buttermilk on one bowl of cereal to not want to make that mistake again. My solution? Organization. A simple letter or two scrawled on the container top has stopped me from wasting time and food over and over again.

In the studio, I am always walking the line between organized and over-planned. My instincts run toward scheduling, pre-planning, color-coding and efficiency. But, I also know that when I over plan, I have guilt when I stray from my original design that sometime keeps me on a path (that often isn’t really working) longer than I should. But if I don’t schedule at all, I end up procrastinating, the stereotypical downfall of beret-wearing artists in movies everywhere. This next Call is a perfect example. I love this publication. It is gorgeous. The art is phenomenal. Even their Insta feed is fun and inspiring. I keep thinking that the right work to submit will speak to me. As a result, here we are a year or two later, I’ve managed not to enter yet. So, let’s make a plan, be organized; enter early…
