CALL for ENTRIES: Black & White

Posted on January 20, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

ALL GREEN
no gray

Cilantro is a polarizing subject in my family. It is all black and white–absolutely no gray area. For more than 1/2 of my extended family, cilantro is nausea-inducing at the mere thought. I, however, cannot imagine life without tomatillo & cilantro salsa. (It contains nearly equal parts of each.) I try not to judge them. When I was younger, I always thought ginger tasted the same as I imagine lemon-scented furniture polish might taste. Now I love it on nearly anything. This next Call is an excellent reason to see all of the world in black and white. You be the judge…

Check out this Call for Entries from Art-Competition.net (online) for Black & White Photography. $15 entry, & the prize packages are thoughtful & actually useful. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Colour Burst

Posted on January 5, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

JUST SAY NO
the brown has gotta go

I’m growing weary of brown foods. We don’t often fry anything in our house, and we don’t eat wheat. But, because we try our very best not to eat processed or artificially-colored food, the color in our diets almost solely depends on fresh vegetables. There isn’t an abundance of beautifully colored veggies in season right now. And, I can only eat so many servings of spinach and so many servings of sweet potatoes. Bring on the beets, please. Spring is coming. Spring is coming. Spring is coming. I know it is. In the meantime, lets all direct our rainbow-coloured desires to this next Call. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Lines

Posted on January 4, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

LINING UP
for dinner

As linear foods go, I make a mean grilled eggplant lasagna. I don’t usually fall for the layered foods like 7-layer dips and trifles, but lasagna is the exception. Most people are replacing the meat when they use eggplant in lasagna, I’m really replacing the noodles. While I can find wheat-less pasta of most types, lasagna noodles have eluded me. So, eggplant makes a gorgeous replacement. I make it in a glass plan just to get the composition perfect. Ridiculous. This next Call is a far better use of a line obsession. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Lines. They always have a low entry fee ($24) & a great juror. And the theme leaves lots of room for interpretation. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: If you have read the personal portion of this post, CALL for ENTRIES: Lines, anywhere other than by email subscription or on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com, it has been published without permission and is considered theft.

CALL for ENTRIES:
Lines

Lines are powerful compositional elements that control the way eyes move through an image. The effect that lines have on an image varies. Horizontal lines convey a sense of width, stability, calm, lazy, security, relaxation, constancy and timelessness. Whereas vertical lines convey a sense of strength, height, integrity, solidity, dominance, power, peace & tranquility, substance or permanence. This Call is for images that utilize lines in innovative and dynamic ways. — from darkroomgallery.com

ARTIST to LOVE: Dan McCormack

Posted on December 16, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

We found another
great artist to celebrate!

This time it is a photographer! Say “Hello” to our newest Artist to Love…

• • • • • • • • •

Dan McCormack
Photography

Vera
Pinhole Photography

McCORMACK used a round oatmeal box pinhole camera to create a series of visceral images. Through successive pulling of curves in Photoshop, B&W values are replaced with color. The “Nude at Home” series, began about five years ago.

McCormack photographs the model nude in her home, apartment or studio. With the model in her space, all the objects in the image are a part of the life of the model. Then the pose, the furniture and the long, two minute exposures reveal an intimate portrait of the subject.

FAVORITE FOOD: Blueberries

CALL for ENTRIES: Flowers, Plants & Gardens

Posted on December 15, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

sweet or
SOUR?

I dream of lemons & olives–and corn, of course. While dreaming of my future garden, I am excited at the prospect of growing non-GMO corn. But, I also have fantasies of the produce I love most like lemons and olives, neither of which is native to my climate. Is it just enormous hubris on my part to believe that if I try to grow them in a walipini that they will automatically surpass the quality of the native-grown varieties that I buy after their long trip to my local grocery store? What is it about humans that makes us want to manipulate plants? This next Call wants to see how you successfully manipulate plants in your art. Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Art-Competition.net (online) for Flowers, Plants & Gardens. The entry fee is as little as $15, and the prize packages are fantastic. Don’t miss the opportunity…

CALL for ENTRIES: Chronograph

Posted on December 7, 2014December 7, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

cold or
FROZEN?

To freeze or not to freeze– THAT is the question. I tend to cook in large quantities. I do it on purpose to provide additional dinners, but mostly lunches, with the same amount of effort it took to make dinner. The problem is that not all food freezes well. Chili is great reheated after being frozen for a week, but potato soup becomes paste after only a day in the freezer. Casseroles take on a luscious, unctuous quality while mushrooms turn to rubber. This next Call want you to freeze TIME, for better or for worse. Brilliant. Are you up for the challenge?

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Chronograph. They always have a low entry fee ($24) & a great juror. But, I have a soft spot for this theme. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Chronograph

“Photography is a medium renowned for freezing time. However, there are many facets and dichotomies this theme of chronology can visually explore. Darkroom Gallery is calling for explorative visual depictions of time. Pasts and futures can often collide…and what of time travelers and quantum physics? Lastly, photographs can be truly devoid of time, they can have a sort of classic “timelessness”. “ — from darkroomgallery.com

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists 18+

MEDIA: Photography

THEME: Time-oriented photography; vintage, futuristic or rhythmic imagery.

DEADLINE: December 28, 2014

NOTIFICATION: January 4, 2015

ENTRY FEE: Up to 4 for $24 (online)/$29 (email)

CALL for ENTRIES: Seeing the Land

Posted on November 13, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

tired
BUT HUNGRY

Living off the land is labor-intensive & complicated. As my husband I began planning for gardening our own little plot of land, my head swims with seed varieties, planting schedules, crop rotation, organic pest control, bee pollination & seed preservation. The advantages of having an agricultural degree is all too clear now. And then there is the livestock–goats and sheep and chickens. Farm country looks a little less serene to me now when they whiz past my window on car trips. But when I fall asleep, I still dream of fresh beets, cabbage & carrots. Wrong–I know. This next Call wants to know how YOU see the land. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: The UN Show

MENU

Frequently, the most memorable kitchen creations are happy accidents. As much as I love a list, theme and a plan, sometimes I find myself in a situation that forces me to create a masterpiece from what I have on hand or try something new on the spur of the moment. My favorite chicken-cheddar-broccoli soup came about as a necessary use of what I could find in the frig. Now it is a winter menu staple in our house. This next Call is a show that is both un-juried & un-curated, but I KNOW this organization. It will definitely be a show not to be missed, and you can be a part of it. Please investigate this one…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Haggus Society (Los Angeles) for The UN Show. Enter for only $12.50 or FREE if you’re a member. This is a great resume builder…
