BUTTER not JAM

I cannot bake biscuits of any sort.  I have tried and tried, but the result is a pan of white hockey pucks.  It is okay not to be good at everything… even if you really want to be.  By the way, I cannot paint either.  I have tried and tried, but the result is a canvas of muddy mess.  Lately, I’ve published a lot of photo calls, and I am starting to feel the guilt of personal bias.  So, this Call is mostly meant for all of my talented painting readers.  Go forth and conquer!

Check out this Call for Entries from the Richeson School of Art for the Richeson 75 2011 Figure / Portrait exhibition.  Win a prize in this show and walk away with LOTS of art supplies from Jack Richeson & Co.  Win Best of Show and walk away with $3,ooo!

  1. $30 to enter one piece, then artists pay to ship the work, and also pay for insurance while the work is on site. This comment is not so much about this particular post, but the
    cost of entering, showing work and making a living. Choose your venues carefully.
