July Harvest

fluttering black crows
ring the plentiful
Yuma Valley crops

fingers of wheat reach
towards the transparent
cobalt vault of heaven

warming winds blow the
white remnants of wispy clouds
into the distance

white egrets eagerly pursue
beetles and earthworms
peck wet earth searching, searching

soon muted yellow combines
will thresh crops in what will seem
slow motion

You are invited to submit . . .

As you know, this is a thought-provoking time for all humanity. Thus, I will be working with fellow artists/writers to create the second women's anthology book. 

The first book, "Strong Women's Art Anthology, was published in 2018, which can be found by searching the name of the book, "Strong Women's Art Anthology."

"2020, Women Artists' Create!" book shall convey the strength of humanity through art images/writing. This post is a call to Women Artists/Writers World Wide;  Artists, Drawers, Mixed Media Creators, Painters, Photographers, Sculptors, Welders, Writers, etc.  

"2020, Women Artists' Create!"; art/writing submissions end January 31, 2021. 

The upcoming book is an opportunity for women artists to submit their work to express themselves through their art/writing, focusing on the 2020 year. Another purpose is to allow women artists to have the opportunity to be published without being charged money to do so.  

I plan to give each artist two pages, one for their art and the other one for why they created their art in 2020. If you wish to purchase a copy of the book after the book is published, you may do so at a wholesale price. In other words, you would be paying the same amount for the book as I will be paying. Postage costs vary, especially if you live in another country. 

Your work will communicate the strength of humanity that you know personally or some famous person who works/worked in their field of work, technology, science, the medical profession, education, etc., during the 2020 Pandemic. The images/writings, submission date, is no later than January 31, 2021, and are requested to be in high resolution so that the Anthology book has crisp and clear images. 

Please note; I do not need original artworks/writings.  If selected to be in the book, I will need a signed statement to print your book's image/writing.  You may submit as many images/writings as you would like.  If I receive many submissions, I will have fellow women artists and writers help me select the artists' works. 

A cash donation will be made to a women and children's shelter from books sold after admin costs, postage, and miscellaneous costs have been paid.  Please send high resolutions, at least 600 dpi image(s) to this account. 

Again, "2020, Women Artists' Create!"; art/writing submissions end January 31, 2021. If you have questions, please contact me at this site.   

Good luck, and stay healthy! 

Sincerely, 

Pamela Carvajal Drapala
