FOOD for the
SOUL

Food can be life altering because you ARE what you EAT.  It isn’t a silly cliche, it is true.  Cutting a significant amount of processed foods out of my diet put me in control of my weight, my energy and my mood.  Are there foods I never want to live with out?  Sure.  Farm fresh eggs, goat cheese and freshly made pasta.  Make it as a finalist for this next call, you can eat all the pasta you want.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for the ITS#PHOTO International Photo Competition from International Talent Support (ITS).  There is no entry fee, but the entry is somewhat complicated including sending your portfolio to Italy.  Read carefully and follow instructions.  If you’re a finalist, it could change your life.

PRICKLY COMMENTARY

There have been a couple of sites out there lately screaming about the dangers of free and low entry fee contests and calls.  I know that I get accused of being all hearts and rainbows, but I think there is enough negativity out there.  You’re smart.  Read the fine print.  Don’t refuse to enter because it is scary.  If I didn’t eat things that looked scary, I would have missed out on sea urchin yumminess.  And the world we be a less lovely place without sea urchins, trust me.  This next call can be entered for next to nothing.  I say… take a chance, but remember to read the fine print about retaining your photographic rights.

Check out this Call for Entries, sponsored by Sigma, for the Photographer’s Forum 31st Annual Photography Contest.  It is hard to come up with an excuse not to spend $3.95 for the entry fee, and after 30 years… they have to be doing something right.  Enter today!

CALL for ENTRIES: Digital Concept and Construct

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!EAT MY PIXELS

I am annoyed by late-night fast food commercials because my will power doesn’t need the test.  But my child falls for those digitally-enhanced, staged food product advertisements everytime.  I cannot tell you how many cereals I have bought for him because they “look yummy,” only to find out they are artificially-flavored cardboard.  This next Call for Entries shows the positive side of digital manipulaton.

Check out this Call for Entries from Darkroom Gallery (converting from the Vermont Photo Space Gallery) called Digital Concept / Digital Construct. Enter your work for as little as $20. Don’t forget Dark Room Gallery offers free framing & matting on accepted entries!

Editor’s Note:  I know how many of you roll your eyes every time you read that the media for a show excludes computer-generated  work, new media and digitally manipulated artwork and photography.  If you want more opportunities and to be accepted into the same shows with mainstream traditional media, DO NOT let shows like this one pass you by. This show is made for you.  No whining… just do it.

Learn more about Digital Concept Digital Construct show at the Dark Room GalleryCALL FOR ENTRIES: Digital Concept / Digital Construct

This is a digital world. We are surrounded, engulfed by, and reliant upon digital media. It has become a way of life and a way of seeing. As digitally manipulated images become the norm, their fantasy perspectives are becoming the new reality.  Is there such a thing as truth and lies in digital art photographs, or is it all just possibility?

Our capacities and aptitudes for creating digital photographic art far exceed what we had imagined. We’re tempted by new technologies – camera phones and point and shoots, the next 80 megapixel medium format digital back, the newest apps, the latest updates – we cannot help but push the proverbial envelope (shadow/highlight recovery, adjustment brushes, the curves line, layer blending modes).

 
Work by Juror Suzette Troche-Stapp

There is art in successful digital imaging and manipulation.

 

Vincent Dixon, the Wade Brothers, David LaChapelle, the collaborations of Warren Du Preez and Nick Thornton Jones, and our Juror, award-winning Photoshop expert Suzette Troche-Stapp are elevating the digitally manipulated photograph to the next level.  How do you use it to develop your concepts and achieve your constructs? Whether you are enhancing or altering reality, creating fantasy, retouching, compositing, constructing, how has digital informed your imaging?

JUROR:   A photographer since the age of sixteen, Suzette Troche-Stapp has been working in digital imaging since its inception in the 1980’s. Recognized throughout the industry, Suzette was recently named one of the “Top 40 Photoshop Experts,” awarded the “Guru Award” for excellence in Photoshop by NAPP, and nominated for the “Photoshop Hall Of Fame” several years in a row. 

Her images are seen in national ad campaigns, editorial beauty and fashion features, and her celebrity images have been broadcast to millions on shows like “The View”, “The Late Show”, and “Kathy Griffin’s Life on the D-List”.

Learn more about the Digital Concept show at the Darkroom Gallery!Troche-Stapp is also a workshop facilitator and author, offering tutorials, several published articles and an award-winning book “The Glitterguru on Photoshop:  from Concept to Cool.”  The Dark Room Gallery is so pleased to have Suzette Troche-Stapp’s digital expertise and commercial experience as Juror for “Digital Concept.Digital Construct.”

WILL DESIGN
for FOOD

I am a sucker for food ads.  I am fascinated by the look and description of food.  If you want to sell me something… do it with good design.  Like this ad for FIT Ketchup from Heinz.  If you love ads, check out Ads of the World™ where I found this one.  It is the same with art.  As I have mentioned in the Art of Cooking, it is all about presentation.

I am a huge fan of pursuing editorial art publication; however, anything worth having in life is also worth doing yourself

 

Whether it is promoting a show you already have or introducing your work to galleries where you would like to show, postcards are a great idea for promoting your work.  Printing them yourself doesn’t often look professional, and professional printing is more reasonably priced than ever.

Learn more about your postcard options at NextDayFlyerscom!AAAD  is proud to partner with NextDayFlyers.com to sponsor a postcard giveaway. 

 

All you to do is leave a comment on this post telling us what you would do with 100 free postcards, and you qualify to win!  I know a few of you out there are suspicious, but there is no catch!

Comments will close one week from the time of this post. NextDayFlyers.com will use Random.org to pick a winner and set up an account with a credit for a set of 100 4″x6″ Standard Postcards printed in full color on one side and black and white on the reverse. They will include next day printing turnaround time and ship them anywhere in the Continental U.S. 

Pyschomachia by Artist R.L. Gibson and Photographer Jerry Portelli!Those are their rules;
Here are mine:

1. One comment per artist explaining what you will do with the postcards.

2. Comments should not contain profanity or links to other websites.  Editor’s note: I personally approve every comment, so I will know if you break the rules.

3. Spread the word.  The drawing is completely random, so help out your friends and peers by giving them a chance to win too.  Retweet & share on facebook!

Best of luck!  We will post the name of the winner!
