Art Opportunity - Deadline Aug 14th - Call for Entries

Only one week left - Start the 2009-2010 art season with your best shot!

New York, NY – August 6, 2009 - Friendly reminder. If you haven't entered your art of the nude for the September calendar, now is the time. September 2009 is the 37th monthly calendar from barebrush.com. That's right, our third anniversary!

Right now, we're in transition, going through a "makeover" to make barebrush more user friendly, but you don't want to miss this opportunity to launch the 2010 art season with the most professional, no nonsense display of YOUR art on the internet.

I am looking forward to seeing (and presenting) more great art on barebrush.com. By the way -- the curator is going to select the October calendar at the same time, so winning artists will have lots of time to notify contacts (and press) of their success.

Here is the opening text of our call for entries, first published July 14th. For more information, click on the link below.

All visual artists are invited by BAREBRUSH founder and CEO, Ilene Skeen to submit art of the nude for the September and October 2009 N*des-of-the-Month calendar contests.

Thanks for your interest and many, many thanks to barebrush artists and art lovers. Barebrush is dedicated to increasing the awareness, acceptance and appreciation of the art of the nude. Online since 2006.

With sincere regards,

Ilene Skeen
CEO
