I usually love Spring, but I am antsy for Summer already.  I suspect it is because this Spring has been anything but war.  As a result, the farmer’s market is low on early harvested goods.  Sad.  Now I’m just ready to fast forward to summer.  I can taste the garlic and goat cheese stuffed squash flowers as I type.  Yum.  The deadline for this next Call is right around the corner, and they want to see the blooms of which YOU dream.  A beautiful theme…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for In Bloom. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($24), and they will provide free matting & framing if you work in their standard sizes. Take a look…

*Editor’s Note: If you enter, please make sure to let them know that you found the Call on ArtAndArtDeadlines.com. We’ve got a great history with them…including Best of Show!

In Bloom

 

Flower among flowers,
soft bud swooning,
opening her lovely petals,
bursting forth with life.

 

Blooms gladden all they espy; youthful candor and fragrance abounding! They summon romantic gestures, evoke seasonal rebirth and highlight a raw yet delicate beauty. Show us your most sensual works exploring flower power. Rapturous still life images; the bloom on the vine, the bud in the vase. Floral portraiture ever-nuanced, ever-growing. Humans bloom like flora and fauna; the girl on the cusp of womanhood, a boy breaching the threshold to manhood. Romance us with your interpretations of this tenuous beauty, these arrangements of organic sensuality.

ELIGIBILITY: Entrants must be at least 18 years old. If younger, you must have a legal guardian make the submission for you.
