My dogs are foodies too.  Well, sort of.  I have two good-sized dogs, and they love to lay in the kitchen hoping to snag a treat while I’m cooking.  Their favorites?  The top of the list is Romaine lettuce spines followed closely by baby carrots and white seedless grapes.  They’ve been eating them for 5 years so apparently it isn’t bad for them.  This next Call is all about the pets in your life.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Ohio Veterinary Medical Association for Wings, Tails & Scales held at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in conjunction with the Midwest Veterinary Conference.  This is a great show to get you in front of a different sort of buyer, and the miniscule 10% commission goes to a great organization.  Investigate…

Package design truly affects my food purchases.  From clusters of naturally adorable clementines in a little wooden crate to the little pink pig on my favorite Brown Mix, No Pudge FudgeNote: These are the best brownies I have EVER eaten in my life.  My family is addicted, and I appreciate that just calls for yogurt–we prefer to use Greek yogurt with a little extra vanilla.  I’m not certain if my background in graphic design makes MORE or LESS susceptible.  This next Call is all about Design.  You’ve got the eye; now it is your turn to show it off!

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Photography by Design. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($20), and they will provide free matting & framing if you work in their standard sizes.

Photography by Design

 

There are principles of good design that when used properly, will make a good image much better, and a great image dynamite.  With an understanding of how to apply these principles in making your images, you’ve got a excellent chance at elevating even dull subject matter to visually enticing, and in some instances, simply persuasive.

Does your image use point, line, color, form or shape, space, texture, and/or pattern to effectively communicate your intent?  Does the image portray a sense of unity, balance, proportion, rhythm/repetition/similarity, hierarchy/dominance/emphasis/figure to ground.  Let’s also add a few of the gestalt principles into the mix:  Closure (our tendency to see and assume something which is not technically there/to fill in the missing pieces), Continuance (our tendency to follow a visual or suggested path), and Proximity (the two-dimensional relationship of objects to each other within the frame).  If you have images that clearly illustrate one or several of the above mentioned elements and/or principles of design, they would love to see them.

I am emotionally attached to goat cheese. I recognize how very irrational that is, but the fact remains that “I love goat cheese.”  I dream about it.  Eating herb-crusted goat cheese on freshly-backed foccacia with a few capers is the height of emotional eating for me.  It can take away almost ANY bad day.  No joke.  Luckily, my bad days are not too frequent, ha.  This next Call wants to know about your Emotional quirks.  Don’t miss this chance…

STUFF!

I eat more cake than I’d like to admit.  In my household, it is most often in the form of cupcakes.  It is not because I prefer the taste or portion control of cupcakes.  But I find that cupcakes are easier to freeze and store.  Did you know that freezing cake (or cupcakes) before they have completely cooled traps some of the moisture in the cake?  It also makes them easier to cut or decorate.  This next Call will test the depth of your taste for the sweet stuff.  Take a look…

You know I love tiny foods.  We’ve talked about micro greens, baby vegetables and amuse bouche more times than I can count; however, sometimes a smaller size is just practical.  I am addicted to spaghetti squash, and I am constantly on the hunt for the smallest one I can find.  How much food a spaghetti squash produces is just crazy.  This next Call is all about size…regardless of the reason.  Take a look…

I used to live 12″ from a firehouse in Downtown Charleston.  The kitchen shared a wall with the firehouse.  If there was an alarm while I was cooking dinner, I had to hang on to the pots on the stove and the glasses on the counter to prevent crashes.  The gallery sponsoring this next Call has had a much better experience with firehouses.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Balance

Click to Subscribe to www.ArtAndArtDeadlines.com by Email!LIME to ME

I have become more keenly aware of balance of flavors as my taste buds mature.  Once upon a time, barbeque pizza was a treat on its own.  Now, it requires cilantro and a squeeze of lime–a touch of acid to cut the ooey gooey-ness of it all. Is it that my taste is evolving, or am a just more easily bored by food?  This next Call is all about your view of balance.  Take a look…

Balance

 “What I dream of is an art of balance” – Henri Matisse

 

Balance in art is the arrangement of elements so no one part overpowers the other, or seems heavier than the other.

There are three different perspectives on balance: symmetrical balance – stable and formal.  Asymmetrical balance – non-stable and dramatic. Radial balance – alludes to movement. How do you utilize balance in your art?  If selected you will be a part of an exciting group exhibit in New York City.

ELIGIBILITY: Open to all artists

MEDIA: All media submitted must be no larger than 36″ in any direction.

Food quality is often the key to good food.  I had lunch with a friend a couple of weeks ago, and she ordered an egg salad sandwich.  She raved about how it was the best egg salad ever.  A few days later I was having lunch at the same restaurant, and I asked Chef Sam what was in the egg salad.  His answer? Eggs, mayo, salt & pepper.  Some things just don’t need to be complicated.  This next Call is all about minimalism in art, not food.  Take a look…

I detest large menus.  I can usually make a pretty quick decision, but I married the most indecisive man on the planet.  Large menus mean that I am going to have wait even longer to eat.  Sometime being able to have anything you want isn’t really what you want.  This next Call is completely open, and for some of you it will be a hard choice.  Good luck…
