CALL for ENTRIES: Semblance

BANANAS

I watched soap operas before I could talk. More accurately, my mother used to put me in my high chair and turn on The Doctors while she enjoyed her lunch. One day it came to an abrupt stop. Apparently engrossed in an overly-dramatic subplot, my mother neglected to notice I had fallen asleep and face-planted in my peanut-butter-topped-bananas. Since then, anytime my mother even see a commercial for a soap opera, the portrait of me covered in pb&b conjures guilt. This next Call wants your portraits; the food is optional. Love this…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Semblance. $24 entry, a great juror & a history of showing spectacular photographers. We’re proud of how many of our readers have been both shown & awarded in the past few years at Darkroom. And, well, this theme is always close to my heart–which is just below my face, ha. *insert rimshot here* Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Semblance

The whole of a person caught within a single frame; portraits can be reactive, didactic, contemplative and illusive. ‘Semblance’ refers to the outward appearance something or in this case, someone.

BITS OF BEANIE

I’m torn about chili with beans. I love it; I do. And, I live with an acne-prone teenager. And, kidney beans are high in zinc which helps fight acne. But, the side effects of consuming large amounts of kidney beans, or any beans for that matter, are daunting. Let’s leave it at that. This next Call is good for the face–without the side effects. Take a look…

HERO

What would we do without the iconic dishes that make up the safety net? You know the ones…everyone likes some version of it. They tend to be my “go to” meals on nights when I have to plan in advance. Since I don’t know what anyone will be in the mood for, I hit the highlights. Tonight is spaghetti night. No matter who is coming, I can cover vegetarian, vegan & gluten-free if need be. This Call is all about iconic art categories. Please investigate this one. If you work in 2-D, there is probably a way to make this work for you…

Check out this Call for Entries from Art of Brands (a new AAAD sponsor) for Iconic Images. There is no entry fee, and this could be a great way to earn money from your art. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: So many of you have talked to me about selling your work w/o being bogged down running a gallery or about art fairs or gallery representation. I know you often leave the conversation not feeling like nothing is accessible. I like THIS opportunity. If you work in 2-D, don’t dismiss this Call. Some of you might consider simply doing what you already do but direct some content to suit this purpose. It won’t be for everyone, but I think it is a valid option for a lot of you.

Art of Brands is just beginning to fill out their categories, so be sure to let them know if you have work that you think might fit but isn’t currently represented.

DEADLINE: Ongoing entries wanted. *For my favorite artistic procrastinators, don’t worry, I’ll post this Call for Entries at least once per quarter for a while just in case you are too busy to enter today.

NOTIFICATION: Within 72 hours of completing the sign-up process

CURATORS: A committee of members with backgrounds in art

WATER
hold the bottle

I have never been a water drinker. I prefer cold-brewed, black tea–decaf, no ice. But, I do force myself to drink a few glasses a day. But I never cease to be amazed by the bizarre marketing methods used to sell water to us at a premium. You can buy water from melted icebergs, from springs at the base of Mt. Figi & even from the demilitarized zone between North & South Korea. This next Call leaves the source of your water to you. Take a look…

Cookbook authors have my number. Make the food look fantastic on the cover, and I’ll buy it. Yes, I judge books (some books) by their covers. I recent bought quick & easy thai.

Sometimes is just WORKS…

BREAKFAST

Gender rolls are “squishy” at my house. My husband does most of the cooking. I am the disciplinarian. Even our mail comes bizarrely addressed since I didn’t take his last name. It works for us. It is what we know. And, well, the food is good. 🙂 I use #imarriedforthefood a lot. This next Call explores gender identity & the experience of being trans. If this isn’t the Call for you, please pass it along…

TO HANDLE

Mozzarella-making is at a standstill at my house. Okay, to be truthful, no one has ever mistaken this house for a cheese factory. But lately, we’ve suffered the loss of one digital thermometer after another. They don’t just stop; the temps slowly start veering from accurate. I don’t normally advocate technology-forward kitchen gadgetry, but a digital thermometer results in far fewer failed batches of cheese–when it works. I think it may be time to just shell out the bucks for one I KNOW won’t die easily. I surrender. You should surrender your digital art to this next call. Take a look…

Stuffed cabbage is a recipe that takes me back to my childhood. My grandmother had such a talent for making perfect little rolls. I wish I had paid better attention to how she did that because I struggle to make them presentable. Imagine my delight when I found a recipe for Deconstructed Stuffed Cabbage. So excited to try this one. In the meantime, this next Call is all about the CONstructed not the DEconstructed. Loving this theme…

Ethnic grocery stores are gateway habits for foodies. My favorite Cuban cookbook led me to my local Hispanic grocery in search of ingredients for authentic congri, and I came home with products I cannot pronounce and for which I have no use.
