I once wanted to be a Master Chef, but alas, I decided in the end that I enjoyed the eating more than the cooking.  Becoming a Master Chef takes years of schooling and working in virtually every position in the kitchen to reach your end goal.  Master painters are no different.  As I have shouted from the rooftop on many occasions, “I am a bad painter.”  However, I salute all of you that have what it takes.

Check out the Call for Entries from the International Museum of Contemporary Masters and the Greenhouse Gallery of Fine Art for the Salon International 2011.  Here is an opportunity to be a part of a huge show, share an exhibit with the masters of your media, and have a chance at winning one of the many prizes.  Take a look…

  1. I’m having a difficult time entering digitally to your show. I followed all the steps and gave out my creditcard information, but when it came time to enter my digital images there wasn’t a page for that activity. Would you plese contact me as soon as possible.

  2. Good Evening, Donald! I have not personallyattempted to enter this show; however, the gallery has a great reputation for being very friendly and helpful. Luckily, unlike most artists, you HAVE NOT waited until the last minute, ha. I would suggest waiting until Monday and then calling the Greenhouse Gallery at (800) 453-8991. They should be able to help you. Have a Great Evening! R.L. Gibson, Editor
