I have to admit that my Australian food experience has been lacking over the years.  However, a Chef named Jason introduced me to Vegemite this Spring.  Like you probably, my only previous experience with Vegemite was the Men At Work song.  Traditionally, this paste made from a by-product of beer-brewing and is eaten on buttered toast.  My taste was Vegemite mixed heavily with butter and eaten with pita.  Yum.  Give it a try if you get a chance.  So, have you figured out this next Call is from Australia yet? I’m the queen of subtle….

What food helps you get to sleep quickly? Well, honestly, almost any food helps me sleep because I am usually so exhausted that I can fall sleep after eating virtually anything.  The idea of warm milk is pretty nauseating, and I’ve never developed a taste for hot tea, either.   I have friends that swear by melatonin supplements, and a few that are addicted to over-the-counter PM drugs.  Those drugs give me a hangover, and melatonin just doesn’t do anything for me.  Luckily my days of insomnia seem to be over.  So I have a request of you… don’t doze off while reading this next Call (a repost) because the deadline is almost here for the New York show.  Take a look…

I don’t eat pine.

I enjoy the occasional Murder Mystery Dinner show, but I never want the mystery to be WHAT I am eating.  I have fairly adventurous taste in food, but I still want the courtesy of knowing what I am putting in my mouth.  For some reason, more than one chef has said to me, “I made it special for you, just try it.”  99% of the time they are right; however, for the occasional 1%, I have this to say to the chef, “If you had just TOLD me there were pine nuts in the wild boar dish, I could have spared you the public “ick” face when I tried it.”  So there.  This next Call is not really a Mystery for YOU, despite the name.  Investigate for yourself…

Masters Mystery

 

The Masters’ Mystery Art Show (MMAS) is an international annual art event featuring over 1000 artworks by more than 500 artists from 31 countries around the globe. It includes nationally and internationally recognized artists, many brilliant emerging artists, as well as a number of celebrities from other fields.  The MMAS was developed to benefit Florida International University’s Master of Fine Arts in Visual Arts Program.   This event coincides with Art Basel and takes place at the Ritz-Carlton, Miami Beach.

The list of contributing artists, including a host of well-established names, will be widely publicized in advance.  Adding to the excitement will be the participation of renowned celebrities in different disciplines and selected local students will compliment the roster. The “mystery” is that the name of the artist for each work is kept secret during the exhibition, only to be revealed at the completion of the sale.  Thus the public is invited to “play detective” as they try to identify the artist – and be the first to buy the best!

Learn more about the Master Mystery Art Show from Florida International University!ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists.

MEDIA:  All exhibited works will be originals in a 6” x 9” format and will sell for the fixed price of $50.

DEADLINE:  Submitted artwork must be received by November 15th, 2011.

NOTIFICATION:  None.  This is an all-hung exhibit.

ENTRY FEE:  None.

SALES:  All exhibited works will sell for the fixed price of $50.  By submitting your work, you are making a DONATION of your work for sale.  You won’t make any cash, but you’ll get another line on your resume, and you may end up with a new collector of your work.

I loved drinking Tang as a kid, did you?  Formulated by General Foods Corporation, it was first marketed in powdered form in 1959.   But sales of  the powdered breakfast drink were poor until NASA used Tang on John Glenn’s Mercury flight, and subsequent Gemini missions.  If space flight sold an orange-flavored, maybe this next call for scientific exploration can sell you artwork.  Time for an experiment of your very own…

CALL for ENTRIES: Mystery of Man

Read the Full Call for the Mystery of Man Exhibit!Mystery of Man is a multi-media exhibition open to all artists.  Mystery of Man seeks to revive the classicist notion that both art and science are mediums of understanding. Throughout history, societies have employed both mediums to negotiate ideas of self and the meaning of existence. Through this lens, works selected will address one or many of the following questions:

-Where or what did we come from?
-Why are we here?
-What is reality?
-How do we interpret the self?

Works will be juried based on their relevance to the above questions and the quality of their craftsmanship.

I prefer immediate gratification, be it chocolate or laundry. I simply don’t like to wait.  That is one of the many reasons that I don’t bake chocolate soufflés–because I cannot handle the agony of seeing if it will turn out beautiful and puffed or flat and dreary.  I lose enthusiasm for the whole laundry process during the dry time too (not that I am generally very enthused about it to start with).  Although, I will take soufflé baking over laundry any day of the week.  This next Call is a perfect opportunity for you to contemplate the passage of time, and not just of food and laundry. Think about it…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Kiernan Gallery in Lexington, VA for In Time. This entry fee is low, and I love the concept of contemplating the passage of time, a reflection if you will. Take a look!

I’ve never been much of a milk drinker.  So it is easy to forget how much dairy I consume. I recently had to start taking Cipro, a really strong antibiotic, to try to knock out a irritatingly persistent ear infection, and it can’t be taken with dairy products.  I’m on day 5 of a 10 regiment, and I had no idea it would make my life so complicated.  Speaking of dairy, did you know that Monterey Jack cheese was made by the Mexican Franciscan friars of Monterey, California, during the 19th century?  If you go to the opening of your solo show that you got by sending a proposal to this Call, let me know if they still make it there.  Better yet, pick some up for me…

I prefer to drink my soup.  Chowder and stew?  Give me a spoon and a bowl, but soup calls for the perfect cup.  The handle has to be big enough for me to slide my four fingers through, warming my palm against the cup.  Should be sturdy enough to keep the soup warm while I sip, but not too heavy to hold for the duration.  This next Call might give me a way to drink my soup out of a beautiful piece of art.  Trip to Louisiana anyone?
