CALL for ENTRIES: On the Easel Magazine

Posted on March 18, 2019March 17, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

don’t paint with FISH SAUCE

Every week I manage to make a handful of Insta-worthy, perfectly staged lunches & dinners, completely by accident. More often, I conjure tasty dishes that are weirdly, mostly shades of brown due to carmelization, excessive de-glazing and a love for soy, fish, Worchestershire & all other sauces, brown & salty. As you might imagine, the brown food pics, outside of coffee & walnuts, aren’t really winners on social media, ha. My work is not brown or salty, but similar & not…

A few times per week I manage to pull off a perfectly Insta-worthy image of my work in progress –always at an off-kilter angle with short focus to blur unresolved issues and just the right light to allow a contrast-y filter to make me look like a rock star. It is deceptive and born out of equal measure of insecurity and social media pressure to look like I always have everything effortlessly under control. I have guilt, but not. I don’t like feeding into the notion that studio life needs to be glamourous, but I also don’t like exposing my vulnerability underbelly to nameless, faceless critics. Then enters this Call. As you might imagine, I read A LOT of Calls, and I like options for art publication. But THIS call is different. This call wants to see the mess. Finally, there is an option to show studio life, work-in-progress specifically. I think that this is the kind of aspirational we can feel good about –always real, likely messy & unresolved. Seeing yourself represented as an artist is important. This Call is the brainchild of one of our previously Featured Artists, Robyn Thompson. It is a project of her course work while working toward her Master of Arts in Social Practice, making this a great opportunity to lift up ourselves AND one of our very own.

Check out this Call for Entries from On the Easel Magazine (digital/print) for Works In Progress. No entry fee for this aspirational call for work in progress. There are no cash awards, but this Call is all pros, no cons for me. Take a look, and please contact me personally if you have concerns…

CALL for ENTRIES: Wide Open 10

a-PEELING

My mother doesn’t own a vegetable peeler. Well, didn’t. While I have the benefit of a knife skills class in culinary school, I am not great a peeling vegetables. I can tourne a potato, but if I peel potatoes for mash, you’d better hope I have a vegetable peeler… or a LOT of potatoes. When my mother requested vegetable soup over the holidays, I refused unless she let me buy a peeler. She agreed with disdain, and I spent $3 on the most generic “Domestix” variety available at the local grocer. CHANGED MY LIFE, well, my cooking anyway. With one swoop across a potato, I realized how dull my home peeler was. I put the gadget on my holiday list, and it showed up under the tree. Suddenly I have zucchini ribbons in salad & shaved carrots in my coleslaw. The possibilities are wide open, ha.

I’ve done the same with paint recently. I had access to some more highly pigmented tube watercolors recently, and it affected my approach to the work I did with them. My nature is to “make do” with what I have. It is taught as a virtue in the South. Don’t get me started on all the evils of making do. It is a mindset meant to make children grateful for what they have, but it often squashes ambition and self-value in adults. That mindset combined with all the guilt I have associated with spending money, has kept me “making do” with some watercolors that are not working for me. Now when I finish a tube that doesn’t behave in a way that serves my work, I re-order that hue or something similar from a different maker. I am exploring variations & dispersal patterns & saturation unknown. The adventure has left me open to the possibilities. Vegetable peeler & watercolors. Variations on a theme.

This next Call is also looking for variations on the theme of “Wide Open”. BWAC is one of my favorite venues, known for great jurors, reliable curatorial vision, a non-profit format & even artist run. Interested? Then check out this Call for Entries from BWAC (Brooklyn, NY) for Wide Open 10. There is a distinct discount for early entry, so don’t delay. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Small Works 2019

villainous FRUIT

I blew my grocery budget this week. I ran out of vanilla, almonds, pecans & walnuts all at one time. I may or may not have fallen prey to a Pinterest recipe that called for what seems like all the avocados in California, ha. Avocado toast is the villain once again. I see a lot of rice and beans for the end of the month. Do you rule your budget or does your budget rule you?

One of the most common stumbling blocks to productivity that I hear from artists is budget. Some media are incredibly expensive, some are not. We don’t always choose our media; sometimes it chooses us. So what do you do when you can’t afford 16 new tubes of oil? I have a friend that has become a master of mixing and regularly stocks only 6 colors. Early on, he did only monochromatic work that allowed him to stock only 3 tubes. I’m not suggesting this is your answer; I don’t have the answers. But I know that I must create, so I must find a way.

For years, I only did work that was under 12″ x 12″. Because I worked on gallery wrapped canvas or cradled wood I could ship anything I made via USPS Priority Mail for $8 or less. Now that I’m working on paper, I am torn between framing affordably small pieces or adding huge chunks of museum-quality matting to increase the negative space. That means you’re average 8″ x 10″ piece is 16″ x 20″ framed and 18″ x 24 “x 4″ by the time it is wrapped & packed & shipped. That doesn’t go anywhere in the continental U.S. for less than $36 bucks, and $50+ internationally, each way. This next show is for work 10″ x 10″, so if I work the math backwards, I would have to do 4″x4”. Hmmm, challenge accepted.

So, how about you? Do you normally work small or is this a challenge for you? Entry is cheap & the size means shipping is cheap. Check out this Call for Entries from The Studios of Key West & Lemonade Stand Gallery (Key West, FL) for 2019 Small Works Exhibit at the Sanger Gallery. $14 Entry & 50% commission. This show has a multi-year history for you to research. Is this right for you?

•

CALL for ENTRIES:
2019 Small Works Exhibit from

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists 18+

MEDIA: Open to all media. Finished work, must be 10″ or less including the frame.

DEADLINE: March 1, 2019

ENTRY FEE: $14 per piece entered

SUBMISSION NOTE: “When applying, please send the most clear image of your work. This year we would also like to have an on-line reception, giving the accepted art an even better chance to sell. The better your photos that we receive via this entry process, the more of a chance we will put it on-line. White backgrounds are preferred for this, but not required.”

SALES: The gallery will retain 50% commission on sold work. All artwork must be for sale, and artists will be paid by May 31, 2019.

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: Go Fish

Posted on January 17, 2019January 16, 2019 by R.L. Gibson

here FISHY FISHY FISHY

Ten years ago, I just quit eating tuna salad. I don’t know why. It has never been my favorite, but for some reason it just mysteriously disappeared from my menu-of-habit. I still eat chicken & egg salad. I even enjoy salmon patties on regular occasion. Hell, I even eat tuna fillets at dinner when I find a good deal, but mentioning tuna salad for lunch gets an immediate “no thanks.” Sometimes things just seem fishy.

In the art world, we’ve all become suspicious that someone has an alternative motive . I am leery of every call, every competition. If you read it here, it has passed a fairly thorough “seems fishy” investigation. The vanity galleries and fees-are-more-than-any-possible-reward scams are the easiest to see through. But what about the the newer spaces? The unconventional places? We want to support new endeavors from those whose passion is to serve artists and the development of best practices, but when is your “gut” enough to make it safe to gamble? When does is cease being fishy?

The landlord for my new studio space has me on high alert. It is 200 sq. ft. with power included for $50 per week. A steal right? But he is also willing to sink thousands of dollars into its renovation to make a 12-month studio space for me. Assuming the utilities are $50 a month, it will take him more than a year to recoup the cost for the renovation. Wouldn’t it be cheaper just to leave it as a storage space? Very fishy. Maybe he’s just trying to support the arts by breaking even on an unused asset. The verdict is still out. I’ll keep you updated.

This next Call is highly fishy, in a literal sense. Do you have work that is inspired by fish, fishing or aquatic fauna? Here’s your chance to trade in your suspicion for show time. Check out this Call for Entries from the Cloyde Snook Gallery at Adams State University Art Department (Alamosa, CO) for Go Fish. $35 entry & no commission for this academic show. This is a beautiful venue…

CALL for ENTRIES: Arte Natura 2019

lost in TRANSLATION

What you do if your grocery option were cut by 90%? I recently read an article about the single largest threat to independent or regional grocers being small-box discount stores like Dollar General, Family Dollar & Dollar Tree. If you groceries could only come from one of these sources, can you imagine never eating fresh meat or vegetables again? Virtually every food you would consume would be pre-processed, significantly so. Nothing you ate would be as it exists in nature or even one step removed. My mind is really blown by that idea. It scares me. It that scenario, I would have to put my own health into the hands of the food processing industry. How does that sit with you? Yeah, me neither.

I live less than 5 miles from a regional grocer and another 10-15 miles from large-box retailers like Kroger, Publix, Walmart & Aldi. As much as I would like to buy local, my local grocer doesn’t make stock decision or employ pricing policies that allow me to make the best menu or the best financial decisions. Currently, Aldi gets the bulk of my formal grocery dollars. I want to make foods based on fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, seafood & diary –as close as I can find to their natural form as possible. If I eat poorly, I want it to be by my choice.

A similar desire prompted by media change. I wanted to work using supplies and/or products that I could find easily, or make myself if necessary. At the time, I was contemplating significant rural travel that would have made art supply deliveries less convenient. I’ve always been a closet painter, but always acrylics. Acrylics led me down the path to acrylic mediums, and then my supply load quadrupled. I slowly made my way to watercolor. Purchased paints last long periods & arrive in compact containers. I can make both paints & paper with very few supplies if necessary. Finished work can be stored flat, pressed. Small amounts of water can be found anywhere. It took me a long time to commit, but I’m here and I’m in love, naturally.

This next Call in interested in seeing your nature-oriented work. What do you have to show in this well-established gallery? Take your time, research the history of this show & venue and the curatorial choices that have shaped this space. Could this be a good fit for you? Check out this Call for Entries from Slow Art Productions for Arte Natura 2019 at the Limner Gallery (Hudson, NY). $35 entry open to all media and all artists. Take a look…

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: 56th Annual Masur

Posted on December 2, 2018December 27, 2018 by R.L. Gibson

the SMOOTH move

I finally have a use for all those black, frozen bananas cluttering my freezer –the afternoon smoothie. I live with two high-metabolism guys, so the 4 o’clock afternoon snack is standard here. I’m not new to the concept of the smoothie, but I am new to making them regularly. Frozen cantaloupe, whole milk yogurt and a melange of other goodies like vanilla, berries, chia seeds. I am frequently still NOT hungry when dinner prep time rolls around. The best part is that they are super fast & have almost no clean up, giving me less distraction and fewer avoidance excuses.

I need fewer reasons to make excuses. Do you hibernate from responsibility when overwhelmed? Me too. I am a member of a handful of online artistic communities, and I read all the bickering about what shows are worth entering and which aren’t. No one seems to see different paths. Everyone seems to have divided up into teams “realism” vs. “abstraction”, “fine art” vs. “applied arts”. Where are you? And why can’t your decision be based on where YOU are or where you want to be? Right now, I am interested mainly in academic and museum shows because this is a period of growth and change. What shows feel right to you? Are you concentrating on publication? Are you testing new work in online venues? Are you searching for gallery representation or maybe higher volume commercial sales? All of those paths are valid. Don’t get sucked into the guilt of not fulfilling the vision someone else has for what being a successful artist means. (Remind me to talk about Insta-worthy studios sometime.)

Check out this Call for Entries for the 56th Annual Juried Exhibition from the Masur Museum of Art (Monroe, LA). $20 Entry & no commission. This is a stunning museum show with a storied history. The juror has excellent curatorial vision. I think this is a great opportunity, but is it the right fit for you? Have a smoothie and get back to me. 🙂

bear-ly HUNGRY

I live in black bear country, and hyperphagia is coming to an end soon. Hyperphagia is the time of year when the bears gorge themselves in preparation for their winter “hibernation”, although black bears don’t really hibernate, per see. (I digress.)

Posted on October 18, 2018October 18, 2018 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. This next Call wants to see your work for their Winter Edition. Be organized; enter early…
