Peek-a-Boo, We See You!

Say “Hello” to our newest Artist to Love…

June Yokell
Painting

The End is Now
Painting

June YOKELL is currently working on paintings of California landscapes creating particular moments in paint of beauty & loss.

"I feel a rootedness to everything about nature;-rushing rivers, tangled bushes and trees, blooming plants & flowers, songs of birds, snow falling in a silent and dark night, the warmth of a summer evening. Early experiences along with my response to nature, to personal relationships and to the world are the ingredients. The presence of memory is the ongoing spice."

CALL for ENTRIES: City

Posted on September 5, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

will you
DELIVER?
really? wow!

I love eating in a small town because I have learned that it means I can more easily know and appreciate my connections to my food. However, as I sit and write from a hotel room in a city with a population of almost 7,000 (twice the size of my hometown), I realize that many additional options a little boost in size can afford. This next Call is looking for your views on the cityy–good OR bad.

CALL for ENTRIES: Pure Abstraction

Posted on August 30, 2014August 30, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

CAKE,
carrots & all…

Do you know what you call a spice cupcake without the cream cheese frosting? A breakfast muffin. My husband is dubious, but I say the notions of breakfast, lunch, supper and dinner foods are abstract at best. Why must it be eggs for breakfast? And how much difference is there between banana bread and carrot cake, really? Mmmhmm. This next Call is looking for the abstract, and they DON’T mean carrot cake OR banana bread. Take a look…

It is in our own time that we have become aware of pure aesthetic considerations.
Art never can be imitation.” — Hans Hofmann

CAKE

I know you tire of my pious portraits of myself as healthy eggplant & gourmet cheese. So, I will be honest; at my core, I am Hungarian Dobos cake–or anything smother in chocolate buttercream & caramel.

HAD A COW

Have you heard about the cannulated cows? Wow. Who knew there were cows with port holes? I was watching the Wisconsin edition of Weird Foods America. And a professor at UW-Madison Department of Dairy Science was explaining how they put port holes in the side of cows to study the “ruminant’s digestive process” or the chewing of the cud aka “ruminating.” Into my miscellaneous food trivia file THAT tidbit went; THEN, I received this Call from Ruminate Magazine. Funny how things work out…

Not every food fad is a good one. I am still waiting for jalapeno poppers and chicken fingers to go away. But, if farm to table/plate is a fad, I hope it lasts forever. I am so inspired by how much better the options are out there. And if you happen across a town that already prides itself on food, well then you’re in for a food fantasy. This next Call explores the food to plate issue in a beautiful format. Take a look…

BANANAS

Everyone has to eat on the run sometimes. Not every meal can be separated into courses that stretch out over 2 hours. But, compact meals don’t have to be of lesser quality just because they are rushed. My favorite all-in-one breakfast is bananas with crunchy peanut or almond butter with a few berries chopped for the top. Compact but quality–just like this 4 in 1 Call. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Submissions from Gallery W @ the Whit (Pittsfield, MA) for ALL of their shows for the year. You read that correctly. You have until August 20th to submit work in 4 categories, and the categories are GREAT…
