Call for Entries. Curator to select 31 artworks. Prizes.
New York, NY — Feb 5, 2011. All visual artists are invited by BAREBRUSH founder and CEO, Ilene Skeen to submit art of the nude for the March 2011 N
*des-of-the-Month calendar contest. Guest curator for the Barebrush March calendar will be Mr. David Masello, longtime magazine editor and art writer.
When asked what he would like to see in the art work, Mr. Masello wrote:
Years ago, while I was attending a poetry-writing seminar, the instructor, a noted poet, said, 'There are no rules for writing poetry.' I disagreed—and still do—with that statement. The ONE rule any poet or any painter or sculptor or artist must follow is that he/she should speak the truth. I don't mean the actual, literal truth, but the truth of the artist's vision. Don't create something with the intention of impressing someone (yourself included), but create something that you know reflects the truth of your vision. That's what I will be looking for in your work.
