Up for a “contest” still?
-
As our great teachers at SVS prepares for all the quality vids, podcast, and live classes...I had the idea of still continuing an end of month art piece submission.
Travel prompt was fun and Loved all the pieces. Let’s continue?
Who’s up for a thread as if it WAS a contest?
I do look forward to each Monthly prompt and was anticipating a new theme for this month but wanted to see if you all would still like to do a theme?
Same rules, you have until last day of May. You can post in this thread for your final piece. Start other threads for WIP’s and crits.
Obviously you are not required as with any contest, and I do like seeing everyone’s work and seeing progress not only from myself but others too! I say why not! Call it “personal fulfillment”
call it “lets keep making art.”If it was alright with you all, I’ll pick a theme...
(Forgive me if this was done in the past)
Since it is suggested to have a black and white piece in your portfolio and that @Lee-White was thrilled to see one in April’s contest, how about anything in
BLACK&WHITE as the theme for May?
So I hope you participate! If not that’s ok! I’ll post here by end of May!
I hope to see your work!Happy creating,

I was searching for the theme of this month. I like the idea of "Black and white". I will definitely participate
-
@Flordevitaz Wooo! Happy to hear! I look forward to it.
-
Sounds like fun. I'll see what I can do, thanks!

Great idea! I was actually thinking the same thing.If you want a winner, we could just use the "up-votes" / likes to see which image gets the most votes.
To keep it the same as responses in other contest threads, it'd probably be good to allow voting for as many as you like (rather than trying to tell people to only click the up-vote arrow on the one image they want to pick for a winner--I don't think that would work for several reasons!).
"fauxcontest" Ha, Ha! Love it!
-
I'd love to participate!
-
@miriam That's a great idea with the multiple voting up-votes. Honestly I didn't want to be the one to pick a winner! haha
Let the "fauxcontest" begin! -
@fauxtoddgraphy
Seriously, that's probably the worst thing about any contest--having to choose a winner out of so many good things! -
One week left of May, hope to see some entries!

@fauxtoddgraphy
I am working on one. I hope you have one in progress, too! -
Here's mine.
Edit: I found time to make a few small tweaks.
-
Wasn't going to enter this month's competition, but decided to practice some more digital pencil sketching and whip something up last minute. I call it "a painting of a polar bear pretending to be a panda" (say that quickly!)
-
@gary-wilkinson Haha, I so love this idea. Execution is terrific, as usual.
-
@fauxtoddgraphy I like that way you think. Funny enough, I've been doing several b/w pieces recently. Thanks for thinking of it.

I'm in with my sword wielding witch!!

I really wanted to loosened up this month. This is looking more like a dark whimsical story! & perhaps needs a bit more before calling it an actual portfolio piece, but I had fun creating! Any crit thoughts on it is greatly appreciated! -Todd

@fauxtoddgraphy Love this!!
-
I just happened to be finishing up a black and white piece when I saw this. I posted it in another thread, but I'll put it here as well to throw my hat in the ring.

@johanna-kim thanks Johanna. Are we going to see something from you too?
