Art contest anyone?

[Halo_n_horns]

I was wandering around the site via the various art threads that I've collected in my sticky thread above, and it dawns on me, "How about a Literotica art contest?" Hhmmmm ...

It needs a twist ...

How about a Literotica art contest a-la Iron Chef ... well, in a way.

Once we have a good number of artists who would like to participate, to keep it easy we'll say two or more, I'll anounce a secret ingredient that must be in the each artist's piece of work (Since I'm anouncing the secret ingredient I will NOT participate).

..........

The rules:

The secret ingredient can be tangible or intangible.

Both erotic and non-erotic submissions will be accepted so long as they contain or convey the secret ingredient.

Photographs may be used for reference, but any photographs used must accompany the final piece of work.

Each artist who enters will have 7 days to complete and submit his or her piece of work. Only one entry per artist will be accepted.

All mediums are welcome, including photography.

All submissions will be e-mailed to me and I will post them in this thread for judging (along with any photographs used as reference material by the artist). PM me for my e-mail address, artists and photographers only, please.

All of the judging will be done by fellow Literoticans who will PM me with their votes. Simply PM me the post number of the piece you like the best, and that will be your vote. Only one vote per Lit screen name will be accepted. No vote may be changed once cast.

Once all submissions have been placed I will announce that its time for the voting to begin. The voting will take place for no more than 7 days with all the results being posted at that time.

The winner of the art contest will begin a new thread and choose the next secret ingredient once an appropriate number of artists have chosen to participate. The person running a contest and picking the secret ingredient MAY NOT participate in that contest, not even under an alt or through a "friend."

..........

Basically this will be a fun way for the artists here to push themselves, their skills, and their limitations, and the their fellow Litizens will get some cool new material to look at. Its a win/win deal.

So, discuss. How do the rules look? Any changes, additions, subtractions? Anybody give a rip?

Sounds like a great idea, I however shall be bowing out but I wanted to give my support.

 

[Belegon]

I might try my hand at submitting a photo...I most definitely would participate as a voter...

I'm sure you can do better than that.

Oh honey, I only just started to make an attempt at drawing again. It doesn't feel right as of yet, but thanks just the same.

I like the idea and would try to do something, not sure what medium though....

Great Idea Halo

Groovy. There's one. If no one else signs up you'll win by default.

Halo,

Sounds good, a busy life has kept my sketchbook dry. A dead computer might get in my way though, I havent managed the time to reinstall my scanner.

Cool. Will do. Just keep an eye on this thread http://bestanimations.com/Humans/Eyes/Eye-10-june.gif.

Ooooh, this sounds like such a great idea. My wheels are turning, since I've been trying to think of a reason to start a new painting. Hmm...maybe photography in my painting. Hm. Okay, I want in.

 

[Halo_n_horns]

Cool. I'm counting three that want to participate.

How about if we give this until the end of this coming weekend for anyone else to get in, and on Monday I'll give the secret ingredient and start the contest?

Sounds good to me! I want to get started. I'm all anxious-like.

 

[Salvor-Hardon]

Works for me.......

 

[Halo_n_horns]

Nice. Thanks for your interest guys.

 

[Halo_n_horns]

Bumping ... bumping ... Oh! This feels good ... bumping some more ...

Does Photoshop count as art?

I've seen photoshop do a lot of interesting things that were counted as art in the final product. If no one has any objection to it, I think this would be an interesting addition.

Any comments?

 

[bholderman]

Its fine with me...

 

[Kev H]

Great idea. I'd love to see that Purple Sage guy put his money where his mouth is.

 

[bholderman]

Whose that?

 

[ElusivButterfly]

Just saw your post on the AM Pic boards...I would love to join in....Mine being Photoshop material, as I cannot draw or paint

I like this idea. What art forms are accepted other than painting and photography?
