SWEET harvest

While my friends are dreaming of picnics awash with super-size sandwiches and fresh squeezed lemonade, I crave fruit salads.  My childhood was fulled of canned fruit cocktail, coconut & marshmallow concoctions; so my adulthood is ripe with freshness. Most of the year I try to take in moderate amounts of sugar, but fresh, summer fruits like apples & pears, starfruit & guava, berries & melons are more than I can resist.  I’m hoping you can’t resist this next Call, which is also all about summer.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: A Sense of Place

NUTS for YOU!

I believe that food has a sense of place.  When you eat cotton candy, don’t you think of going to the fair?  When I taste boiled peanuts (Yes, Virginia, they do exist), I am instantly transported to South Carolina.  You have associations of your own, no doubt. This Call is named Sense of Place, but it isn’t a theme.  Maybe it comes from the enormous sense of place felt even through photographs of this beautiful gallery space.  Inspired yet?

Check out this Call for Entries from the Gertrude Herbert Institute of Art in Augusta, GA for the 2011 National Juried Exhbition: A Sense of Place.  The entry fee is low, and once again, the juror is well-documented and happens to be a printmaker, although many media are embraced.  This looks like a winner…
