CALL for ENTRIES: Encaustic Invitational

a day?

One of the things I miss most about being able to shop at the Farmer’s Market or local orchard during the winter is the ability to get wax-free fruit.  When I see a waxed apple, I have to assume it is really old.  Yes, fruit is waxed to make it “pretty” for consumers, but it is also done to seal in moisture and preserve “weight” for as much as a year.  Pick the ugly fruit, please.  This next Call uses wax in a much better way.  Take a look…

Savor the firsts.  Nothing every tastes quite as good the second time around.  I still remember my first taste of pomegranate.  And the first chocolate cake that came from my Easy Bake Oven remains unrivaled.  For some reason we always assume that things get better with time, but I find that, at least with food, nothing ever beats the first taste.  This next Call requires the photo-equivalent of the Easy Bake.  Interested?

6th Annual International Juried Plastic Camera Show

 

This competition is open to artists working with plastic cameras with plastic lenses (click the link if you are looking to buy one).  The more obsolete, flawed, and lo-tech, the better. Images should be taken with cameras with limited controls, such as Diana, Holga, Lubitel, Lomo, Banner, and Ansco cameras. Beautiful prints from less-than-gorgeous cameras – that’s what we’re looking for! This is RayKo’s largest exhibition of the year with artists from all over the globe submitting work, and hundreds of attendees at the reception.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists.

MEDIA: All work must be original & taken with a plastic camera & plastic lens.
