not onions

I would, on occasion, gladly work for food, but did you know that the Egyptians that built the pyramids were often paid with beer, bread and onions.  I don’t think so; not this girl.  As I have previously mention, I’m not a beer kinda girl, and as much as I love bread, a girl cannot live by bread and onions alone.  This next Call’s fee cannot be paid in bread and onions, but it is Pyramid inspired.  Investigate…

My fantasy meal changes.  Some days, mac ‘n’ cheese and moon pies take the cake.  But on days like today, I would kill for a dozen wine-steamed mussels with garlic butter and fresh parsley.  My husband Jon says that it seems as though I hold his adult-onset allergy to shell fish against him.  Today, he might be right.  But, every meal doesn’t have to be a fantasy.  This next Call IS all about the fantasy of it all.  Investigate…

surprise

I am addicted to chocolate.  And, I mistakenly assume that if it is chocolate, I will love it.  Wrong.  You can screw up chocolate.  Milk chocolate is not my favorite version, but done well, there is a time and place for milk chocolate.  But every once in a while, I am offered chocolate and it is grainy, infused with artificial flavors or so sweet that it makes my teeth hurt.  It is always a reminder to mind what I put in my mouth–a warning that I assume is unnecessary for most people.  This next Call could easily be assumed to be a painting call, but it isn’t.  This is a great surprise…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Painting Center (NY, NY) for Working It Out, an exhibition of artists’ working drawings–generally kept private.  The entry fee is standard, but this opportunity is extraordinary.  Take a look…

Working It Out

 

The Painting Center, a gallery in the heart of Chelsea, announces a call for entries for its upcoming juried exhibition entitled WORKING IT OUT, running from June 18th to July 13th, 2013.

Artists of all disciplines begin their creative process with preparatory drawings. This enables visual problem solving throughout the execution of an artwork that is both fluid and beautiful. Drawing can be an exploration of materials, mark making, the emotional tenor of a piece, compositional arrangements or color. Working drawings are the visual manifestation of a work in progress; a working idea. Typically, this work is not seen by the public.

Learn more from The Painting Center!

These are private musings that reflect thought processes. They are, by definition, incomplete. This exhibition will allow the viewer to see the private world of the artist’s creative process.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA:  Artists working in all media are encouraged to submit their working drawings.

DEADLINE:  April 15, 2013

NOTIFICATION:  April 25, 2013

The holy grail of culinary education is the Cordon Blue, and more recently, the Culinary Institutes of America.  I attended Johnson & Wales for a year and continue to be grateful for all that I learned.  I put me on the path to being the food-lover that I am.  And honestly, without the foodie side of me, I’m not sure this blog would have made it.  It gave me a brand, a platform if you will, to set AAAD apart from all the art deadlines out there.  Many feel that museum exhibits are the holy grail of art shows, and this next Call could be your holy grail.  Take a look…

Yellow mustard is a staple of the Southern refrigerator, but it doesn’t appear in mine.  I love mustard, but the older I get the more I appreciate pungent flavors.  And well, yellow mustard doesn’t, well, cut the mustard anymore.  That’s right, folks, I’m a rebel.  You’ll only find Dijon mustard in my house. Don’t tell anyone; they’ll force me to the other side of the Mason-Dixon line if you do.  This next Call involves it’s own sort of rebellion.  Investigate…

Public.  

Rebellious.  

Anonymous.  

Elusive.  

 

These qualities come with the territory of Street Art.  However, a growing trend to display such artwork in gallery spaces necessarily obfuscates these seemingly essential features of the art form.

The upcoming exhibit at ARTs East New York explores a complicated question: What is left of Street Art once it’s taken off the street?  Off the Street will feature works that are more than just gallery-ready replications of artwork on the street, but are instead explorations extending the space of the “street” from the physical to the conceptual.

I’m not a huge fan of buffet restaurants.  I understand why people hosting large parties prefer buffets, but I choose NOT to go to buffet restaurants because I prefer not to be surrounded by people. And, not all food should be held at the same temp.  I don’t like being part of the herd.  Luckily, this next Call is about art and not food because it is a bit like a buffet style show.  As I mentioned, sometimes it just works.  Investigate…

of wisdom

I have a long-standing addiction to pasta.  More accurately, I am addicted to that slightly drowsy, completely relaxed feeling I have when I finish a beautiful Italian meal.  My friends have been trying to get me to read Wheat Belly, but I’ve resisted for fear that I would end up having to give up my favorite pasta, whole wheat couscous.  I cannot bear the thought.  So, this next Call comes from San Francisco which has nothing to do with couscous, but the last time I made a Rice-A-Roni segue, I got email for weeks.  So, my stream of consciousness led me to couscous.  I know, random.  Regardless, don’t miss this next Call…

I recently reclaimed my kitchen.  Lately, the time I spend outside of my home office, art and music studios is greatly reduced, and now I handle almost ALL of the cooking again.  I’m loving it, but I have become SO territorial.  My husband can make popcorn, and it looks like someone has been killing zombies.  And why, pray tell, if the dishwasher is empty can the dirty dishes not go there instead of on the counter?  Deep breaths; I digress.  This next Call is all about Mayhem; Send them your best…

I’ve never cared for drinking water.  I know, I know.  Shame and guilt.  I drink unsweetened decaffeinated iced tea by the gallon.  But somewhere along the way I noticed a few wrinkles and sags in my face.  Shortly thereafter I tripped across an article extolling the wonders that drinking water promises for your skin.  It was hard, but I stuck with it hoping for miraculous results.  Now I regularly crave water in addition to all the tea that I still drink.  Of course, it made no noticeable difference in my skin, but it IS proof that I am not immune to the vanity that rears its ugly head as we age.  This next Call is all about skin.  I love this theme…
