...Less than a week to go...

Winter/Spring Contest 2009!!

It's that time of year again where =ellastasia has found an extra wad of cash and wishes to give it to her most beloved art community!

Alright, let's get down and dirty...This season's contest is a themed contest...and the theme, by popular vote and a bit of coercion, is ORIENTAL. No, not The Orient, just Oriental. Could you draw an Oriental lady? Of course! A kitty in a kimono? Of course! Could you--well you get the point. As long as there is something Oriental-related in your entry, it will be included.

If you have any questions about anything, ask away!

And now to the nitty gritty.

Great subject material, not something I'd normally have gone for... but I'm sure it'll be interesting.

And you've definitely given us plenty of time... so I should be able to come up with something in that time frame.

Some really cool prizes as well.

P.S. The entry needs to be made expressly for the contest or it can be something we have submitted?

Enough time, I think, I can participate

=tanabatablossom Feb 1, 2009, 3:45:39 AM

Oh sweet, you're holding another contest! I will try and participate this time, since I didn't take part in your last contest.
If I can get my lazy butt around to it, I'll also pimp your contest.

Missed you, Sis

*Svera Feb 1, 2009, 8:04:10 AM

You should add that the entries must be done especially for this contest (or doesn't they need to be?).

Well, I'll see if I can participate, just for the fun of it

I'll try to participate in this one, schedule permitting. I love the oriental theme!

You might be an artist if:

-all you see can be reduced to shapes
-lighting is not just functional, its essential
-everywhere you look, a new piece is waiting
to be drawn, sculpt'd, paint'd or photo'd.
-are OCD about art
-daydream.

Ooo, I will actually try for this one.

How nice of you to hold a contest.
