Call for entries

I'm feeling positive, and I can only blame the much needed eruption of colour that happens as we hit Spring each year.  The daffodils outside the studio are positively deafening as they shout out their 'yellowness', and so I find myself wanting to shout right back.  But what to shout about?  The clue is in the title of this blog post.  It's the time of the year I get all excited about the opportunities and exhibitions that are open for submissions.  So here are my pick of the opportunities currently being advertised.  Clean your palettes, sharpen your pencils - it's time to get busy.
