CALL for ENTRIES: Shades of Green

Posted on June 1, 2018May 31, 2018 by R.L. Gibson

Tired of broccoli? Me too. Tired of kale? I think everyone is. What about purslane? It is a succulent herb that has a touch of a bitter overtone. It is technically a weed, but that just means it is easy to grow. If you don’t have it naturally growing in your yard, you can buy the seeds on the cheap. Try it in stir fry or salads. It might add a new twist on the green portion of your meal. This next Call wants to how your work is informed by all things green. And someone will win a $500 grant as well…

Check out this Call for Entries from Art-Competition.net for Shades of Green at Gallery25N (online). $25 entry & no shipping. The media is pretty wide open too. Take a look…

bearing BERRIES

Strawberries have been on sale for $2.50 a quart this week, and blueberries are $1.49 a pint even though they are out of season. That can only mean one thing, local fruit is coming in soon. Every year my grocer discounts imported berries to make way for local produce and I cannot wait to eat every color of Spring– red, blue & green. This next Call wants to see all of your color, regardless of season. And someone will win a $500 grant as well…

friendly FRONDS

I am particularly anxious for Spring to arrive this year. We’re getting closer to when my yearly batch of fiddleheads arrive from the northeast. I have a friend that sends these asparagus-reminiscent beauties to me once a year. And as much as I love them, my anticipation of Spring is about more this year. The symbolism of future promise and new beginnings will weigh on my palate with every fork of fiddlehead this year. This next Call is also inspired by nature. Investigate this opportunity…

CABBAGE to go

Coleslaw is everyone’s holiday party potluck go-to, right? Ha. I didn’t think so. My husband’s work party involves barbeque & fried chicken, so we decided to forego the standard veggie/fruit trays, layered dips & jello desserts. My husband makes a mean coleslaw –rough chop, lots of vinegar & a touch of horseradish. Now what do we bring as a gift? You gotta love drawing random names. This next Call is a much better version of drawing for the holidays. Investigate even if traditional drawing isn’t your thing…

Drawing is the original art and language of man and continues to allow us to communicate what we see and feel. A drawing can be formal and refined or expressive and energetic; it can capture our thoughts with doodling, marks, lines or shaded areas expressing our external world and our individual thoughts. It is a record of who we are as humans and our need to connect with each other.” –art-competition.net

Every year as December approaches, I get excited about the bounty of in-season clementines just around the corner. And in all my excitement, I completely forget about the pomegranates.

THEME: Red “Colors often symbolize a variety of emotions, an artist’s truth, perhaps wild fantasies—from war, power, heat, love, sexuality, anger, and joy to ‘soft’ idealisms—these are but a few examples. Red, in particular here, can be used to draw the viewer closer emotionally in a way which enhances their reaction to the art. It may define intuitively an intended focal point that carries the viewer more deeply into the artist’s message.” –art-competition.net

CALL for ENTRIES: Dreams 3

Posted on June 23, 2017June 23, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

EATING in my sleep

I have been having the oddest dreams. I think it is related to the new version of melatonin supplements I am taking before bed. As you might know, my dreams are often about food. The most commonly reoccurring dream involves my being chased by Swiss chard –specifically red shard wearing yellow sneakers. Yes, I know it is weird. No, I don’t have an explanation. This next Call is all about dreams and you don’t have to explain them either. Interpretation is wide open…

Reflections upon our dreams can have a fleeting effect or a significance that may haunt us for a lifetime. The visual artist can offer safe refuge to the viewer, a connection to these dreams at our invitation as we appreciate the creative avenues we discover through their art. The artist has this opportunity to present a dream as a hazy filtered reality from representational memories to an explosion of abstract & surrealistic imagery—all of which may be emotionally treasured as his or her own.” –art-competition.net

CALL for ENTRIES: Shades of Green

Posted on May 16, 2017May 12, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

BROCCOLETTI di rapa

I have a secret love for rapini. You may know it as broccoli raab or broccoletti. People assume it is just fancy broccoli and often cook it that way, hence the reason I hide my love of it (until now). Rapini is more closely related to a turnip than broccoli with the same tendency toward bitterness or stringy-ness if under cooked or overcooked. Don’t ever buy, cook or serve rapini that isn’t a gorgeous shade of green. (You won’t enjoy the yellow, trust me.) Don’t under cook it or spare the garlic & olive oil. This next Call wants your perspective on all the shades of green, not just the broccoli shades. An open theme…

aztec TEA

We move to our “clean slate” apartment in about 6 weeks. It has a good-size front porch but almost no yard. The only green in site is a decayed and crumbling stepped flower bed next to the driveway. I don’t think I can really grow a lot of food, but I have a friend that says she can get me a cut of epazote, a Mexican herb that’s hard to find in these parts. Maybe if I surround it with marigolds and citronella, I might be able to save it from the bugs & their furrier 4-legged neighbors. This next Call wants to know about your flowers, plants & gardens. This is a perennial favorite, ha…

Posted on February 4, 2017February 4, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

unpopped CORN

Sleep is not my friend. As a lifelong insomniac, and I have tried EVERY remedy –prescription, herbal, oils, sounds, aroma. Lack of sleep promotes depression. For me, depression often takes the form of extended weeks or months of “the blues” marked by an remarkable lethargy and a sort of emotional paralysis. It is more common in winter, so I am actively combating insomnia every February. This year, I am having moderate success by not snacking late at night (my apologies to the massive hit sustained by the popcorn industry) & getting half an hour of moderate exercise each morning. Creativity is the ultimate therapy & this next Call is a great chance to work out some pent up “blues”. Investigate….
