Bare Brush Nude Art Calendar Award



Cari Amici (Dear Friends),

One of my white-pastel-on-black-paper figure drawings recently won an art award on Barebrush.com.
"Mauro in White - 2008 June 18" measures 16" x 10" -- and he is in America and available!

While a judge selected a favored nude artwork for each day in May (my day being 25 May), the site says “Winners determined by a statistical combination of the curators and popular votes. Results announced June 1st. Cash prizes.”

So, if you would like to help me win this award, please vote here:
www.barebrush.com/NOTM/Archives/wp_Nudes_05-2009.html
Voting ends “shortly before the end of the month.”

Here is part of the letter from Barebrush:

“Congratulations, you're a winner! Your art has been selected for the barebrush N*des-of-the-Month May 2009 calendar by Sarah Hardesty, artist, assistant director of a well-established Chelsea gallery, and independent curator. The calendar . . .goes 'live' to the public on May 1. The tag line of this calendar is Intense Diversions. Sarah's selections consistently push edges of the genre and format. I think you'll find this calendar very special -- and not just because you're in it!

…If you haven't taken the opportunity to tell your contacts about barebrush, now is the time! They can vote for your calendar art at the website . . . Oversized postcards for the [month of] May are on order from VistaPrint. We had a website problem displaying the April postcards, so we have plenty left, if you’re interested. If you want several from different months, let me know. For each postcard, the calendar is on the front and the list of artists on the reverse.
And here is the answer to the burning question, "So, Ilene, get to the point! When is My Day?"
Drum roll, please: Monday, May 25
Thank you so much for participating. Be on the lookout for the "It's Your Day" message from barebrush and be ready to pass it along to special friends, colleagues and collectors.
Best regards,
