Call for entries: Curator to select 90 artworks. Three calendars. Prizes.
New York, NY — October 5, 2011. All visual artists are invited by BAREBRUSH founder and CEO, Ilene Skeen to submit art of all genres for three Barebrush calendar contests: November 2011 N*des-of-the-Month calendar contest, the November 2011 PhotoArt N*des calendar contest, and the November 2011 Best-of-the-Rest calendar contest. Curator for the November 2011 calendars will be Barebrush founder, CEO and artist Ilene Skeen.
When asked what she will be looking for when she selects the art, Ms. Skeen said:
I will be looking for skill in execution appropriate to the conception of the artwork: design, composition, energy and style. In addition, I will be looking for emotional impact and significance.
Ms. Skeen added:
After five years of publishing the N*des-of-the Month on the Barebrush website, I continue to be impressed by the power, strength and sophistication of Barebrush artists.
November 2011 will be the 63rd N*des-of-the Month nude art calendar. With the growth of the number of submissions, it is now possible to launch two new calendar series to provide more opportunities for artists to win calendar placement and succeed in raising interest in their art and art careers. The photography/digital nude art calendar, called PhotoArt N*des, now separates the art which is primarily photographic into its own series. In addition, in May 2010, we opened a call for six new genres: portraits, people in clothes, animals, landscapes, still lifes, and abstracts. Although we do not yet have enough submissions to make a calendar for each genre, we do have enough to make a calendar of them all. Thus, I am happy to announce a new calendar series, Best-of-the-Rest — art of the six new genres together.
Barebrush is dedicated to providing an online venue to show art at a reasonable price. E-commerce is in development. It is complex and complicated, but I am determined to make it work simply and easily for both artists and art buyers.
Barebrush and Barebrush artists — getting better together.
