Heres another chance to get your work featured on the SVSLearn homepage! Like I said on the post for July submissions, I realized that only having the first ten days of each month is a little quick of a period to ask people to submit, so I am going to try posting the submission post around the 15th of the month before the deadline, so you have 20 or more days to post something to be considered. If you have any thoughts or suggestions about this monthly opportunity please feel free to share them as a comment or to send me a message!

Instructions:
This post is a place to share work if you want to get a chance to be featured in the Student Art Gallery on the SVSLearn.com homepage for August. To be considered share 1-2 of your best pieces (you can re-share an image you posted last month, but this is also a great opportunity to push yourself and add a new piece to your portfolio) on this forum post. Make sure to share your image by the 10th of July to be considered for August. Also, make sure your images are at least 800 pixels on the shortest side and do not exceed 1mb in size.
Work will be selected based off of how well the work uses the following:

Concept: how well does your illustration convey a clear concept/story. Is it a unique approach? Does it make me want to know more about what is happening in the illustration?

Technique: How is the composition working? Does it have good use of lighting, rendering, mark making, etc.? Does the technique compliment the concept?

If you are selected, we will be emailing you using the email indicated on your forum account. Besides your art being displayed on the homepage, you will also be sent some questions for a Q&A blog post that will be shared on the SVSLearn blog.

I can't wait to see what everyone posts this month!

@NelsonYiap I will be posting the submission post for August by the end of the week if you'd like another shot

Thanks everyone for your submissions this month!
I realized that only having the first ten days of each month is a little quick of a period to ask people to submit, so for next month's submission post I am going to try posting it even earlier (probably around the 15th of this month) so you have 20 or more days to post something to be considered for August. If you have any thoughts or suggestions feel free to share them!

@lmrush you don't have to post again every month, though you are more likely to be chosen if you do (because I don't always look through the past months when picking). You can repost work you have posted before, I just suggest using this as a extra push to keep making new pieces for your portfolio each month.

Its another month, and that means another chance to get your work featured on the homepage! I wanted to get this post up as close to the first of the month as possible, so the featured student post for June is not up just yet, but it will be later this week.

I really enjoy all of the great work everyone keeps posting each month!

@Aleksey like I told Dima, I am actually a little late going through these this month so you are actually ahead of me. The reason we do the deadline so early each month is to give our amazing interviewer time to work with the chosen student to get the Q&A blogpost done by the end of the month.
I really enjoy seeing your images each month!

@Dima-Eichhorn no problem! I actually am a little late picking this month, so you beat me to it These are both really fun. I really like the concept in the dog image!

May's Featured Student:
The featured student for May is Eric Castleman! The Q&A with Eric is up on the SVS Learn blog.

We have had some amazing work submitted the last two months and I can't wait to see what you share this month!

Thank you to everyone that posted last month! It has been wonderful seeing all of your great images. If you are interested I posted the Q&A with the featured student for April today. Also, if you would like to share your work again for a chance to be considered for May you can go to this forum post. I understand that we are all busy so if you need to share the same images as last month there is nothing wrong with that, but if you can use this as a challenge to create something new then go for it (I know I need to do this)!

The featured student for April is up on the SVS homepage and the Q&A is up on the SVS blog, so here is a new post for those who want to get their work featured in the Student Art Gallery on the SVSLearn.com homepage for May. To be considered share 1-2 of your best pieces (you can reshape an image you posted last month, but this is also a great opportunity to push yourself and add a new piece to your portfolio) on this forum post. Make sure to share your image during the first 10 days of April to be considered for May. Also, make sure your images are at least 800 pixels on the shortest side and do not exceed 1mb in size.
