CALL for ENTRIES: Representational Art

Sometimes an egg is just an egg.  Yes, I love them benedict.  I love them scrambled, in caesar salad and as omelettes stuffed with goat cheese and peppers.  But sometimes an egg is great just as an egg.  The same is true of art.  While much of this site’s attention is directed at non-respresentational and contemporary art and photography, there is such a vast American tradition of representational work that I would be remiss not to celebrate that talent and potential in my readers as well.  Rachel Parker is one of my favorites.

Check out this Call for Entries from The Legacy Gallery for the 1st Annual Scottsdale Salon of Fine Art.  This show will fill a 10,000 square foot gallery in Scottsdale, AZ and offer a $10,000 first prize for Best of Show.  Take a look…
