what I am

I’m not a fan of mustard greens.  I love spinach, but mustard greens do nothing for me.  I’m told exposure therapy is the answer, and that it is an acquired taste.  Really?  I don’t want to work hard to like food.  This next Call could be exposure in a good way.  Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: Illumination of Imagination

coffee for none

My husband is a tea drinker, and it is my fault.  So, I don’t like the smell of brewed coffee.  (I hear the nasty emails being pecked out on keyboards across the world.)  I haven’t drank a cup of coffee in 18+ years.  I think brewed coffee smells like skunk spray.  No joke.  So for a long time, my husband used a French press because the odor was lessened.  But then the plunger on the press broke, and neither of us ordered a new one.  Now, he drinks Earl Grey every morning.  I feel a little bad. (Not really.)  Hobbits like tea, or so we are led to believe.  You figure out how that is connected to this next Call by investigating for yourself…

Check out this Call for Entries from Six Summit Gallery (Ivoryton, CT) for Illumination of Imagination! The entry fee can be as low as $10. This could be a great opportunity for you to sell art AND the juror is very well documented. Take a look…

It is clementine season.  Every year around this time, clementines start popping up in the grocery store, and every year I muse over the fact that they seem more like summer fruit than winter.  Did you know that in California (where they were grown as early as 1904), a lot of people call them Christmas Oranges?  Who knew.  This next Call also hails from California.  Take a look!

love

I am emotionally attached to goat cheese. I recognize how very irrational that is, but the fact remains that “I love goat cheese.”  I dream about it.  Eating herb-crusted goat cheese on freshly-backed foccacia with a few capers is the height of emotional eating for me.  It can take away almost ANY bad day.  No joke.  Luckily, my bad days are not too frequent, ha.  This next Call wants to know about your Emotional quirks.  Don’t miss this chance…

STUFF!

I eat more cake than I’d like to admit.  In my household, it is most often in the form of cupcakes.  It is not because I prefer the taste or portion control of cupcakes.  But I find that cupcakes are easier to freeze and store.  Did you know that freezing cake (or cupcakes) before they have completely cooled traps some of the moisture in the cake?  It also makes them easier to cut or decorate.  This next Call will test the depth of your taste for the sweet stuff.  Take a look…

You know I love tiny foods.  We’ve talked about micro greens, baby vegetables and amuse bouche more times than I can count; however, sometimes a smaller size is just practical.  I am addicted to spaghetti squash, and I am constantly on the hunt for the smallest one I can find.  How much food a spaghetti squash produces is just crazy.  This next Call is all about size…regardless of the reason.  Take a look…

I used to live 12″ from a firehouse in Downtown Charleston.  The kitchen shared a wall with the firehouse.  If there was an alarm while I was cooking dinner, I had to hang on to the pots on the stove and the glasses on the counter to prevent crashes.  The gallery sponsoring this next Call has had a much better experience with firehouses.  Take a look…

I had salmon “en papillote” tonight.  Fear not, it just means “in parchment”.  Contrary to what you might think, it is not the French-cool-factor that leads me down the path of parchment cooking. (Okay, maybe a little.) The real reason is because it is healthy since it requires so little fat.  Okay, that’s a lie too.  The truth?  There is virtually no cleanup.  No dirty saute pans.  Yep, laziness has lead to French cooking.  Go figure.  This next Call is all about the paper too.  Take a look…

SUBLIME

The transition from Summer to Fall foods in the South is an odd muddle of unlikely cohorts.  If I hit the farmers market at the right time of year, I can get beautiful lettuce and huge heirloom tomatoes while I am picking out my pumpkin for carving.  You’ve gotta love a long growing season; it seems like every veggie gets a second chance to produce.  This next Call is all about transit of people and things with places to be and people to see.  Investigate…

In Transit

 

Whether by road, sea, rail, air, or other means, vehicles are both essential and ubiquitous in our daily lives. Photographers have documented transportation history, as NASA launched rockets, Ford assembled cars, and the Wright brothers took flight. As modes of transportation, photographers observe the intersections of cultures on public transit and the isolation of solitary commuters on the highway. Modes of transit spawn communities, and photographers have documented biker gangs and houseboats.

Journeys are photographed out of windows of speeding vehicles; blurred, voyeuristic, and fleeting. The vehicles themselves are cultural icons and status symbols: sailboats, muscle cars, Harley-Davidsons, and fixed gear bicycles. For In Transit, The Kiernan Gallery seeks images from and of the vehicles that move us.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists

MEDIA:  All photographic media are encouraged.
