What a busy day, march came in like a lion today

March 1, 2010

i had three art contest deadlines today.

one in france, The Prix de la Photographie Paris 2010 which i submitted a series called Man. last year i got an honorable mention in the 2009 contest and we are trying to go to europe again this summer. hoping to see the Caravaggio exhibit in Rome  Italy  at the Scuderie del Qurionale

then another series submitted to the Xto Image Awards Calling all photographers and illustrators inspired by the human form to submit their work to the Xto Image Awards.  The final deadline is March 1, 2010.

Awards: $2000- Top Overall and $1000-Runner-Up; An exhibit in Los Angeles for the top two winners of each category.

The exhibit will be April 1-7, 2010 at the Robert Berman Gallery in Santa Monica, CA. The winners celebration will be held April 3, 2010, 7pm-10pm in conjunction with MOPLA.

i submitted a female series for this one.

now for the third contest  i submitted  the females from above to The Silicon Gallery Fine Art Prints Ltd.

boy that was some work day which i don’t usually put myself through because i try to submit long before the deadlines, but somehow things got away from me this year. hope this isn’t a harbinger of the year to come.

i’d be happy with any of these associations because looking at past winners  i’d be in some pretty good company. tomorrow i have to pack up my Ascending print and send it off to C4fap.

woohoo the day is done .

new york art week

March 1, 2010

the first week in march here in the city is full of art events starting with the huge armory show right down to the smallest gallery events. how does one manage to see it all, beats me. i’ve never been able to stay on my feet that long and trudging through the crowds just rattles my nerves.

but mary and i manage to give it the old school try untill our feet give out. we start at the armory show then plan our way from there, usually it’s home because that show is so large. we always go to red dot particular to see other smaller galleries and friends. but this year the list of events is so large we will need to pick and chose what we can fit in given our time frame.
