Mid Year Creativity Challenge

Journal Entry: Sat Jun 4, 2011, 3:48 AM




SILHOUETTE CONTEST


Organised & hosted by
:icongingerkellystudio:

Theme:
Silhouettes

What is a silhouette? Read this

"...the term "silhouette" is used to describe the sight or representation of a person, object or scene that is backlit, and appears dark against a lighter background"


Examples:



Your entry does not have to be dark against light
It can be light against dark...
The Silhouette can be the main theme or a minor theme...
As long as there is some reference to a silhouette somewhere in the artwork it will be accepted as an entry.
However, I have very high standards ;)
So make sure you put alot of effort into your entries because I'm looking for something outstanding!

:woohoo: To give you some inspiration I put together a feature of Silhouette art & crafts:  Check it out HERE :star:


Contest Info


Medium:
Open to the following visual media
Photography, Traditional Art, Digital Art, Artisan Crafts

:bulletblue: All entries will be judged for creativity in the interpretation of the theme, technical skill and aesthetic appeal.

Contest Rules




You can enter as many times as you like, but you can only win once.
If you want to avoid competing against yourself, you might want to choose just one entry, your best.

It is not quantity that wins, it is QUALITY.


The entry has to be made specially for this contest & must be uploaded after the start date (May 31st) and before the deadline (July 31st)

Make sure you submit your entry into the correct dA gallery. In other words: If your entry is a digital painting, submit it to 'Digital Art: Painting, and follow dA rules about what you can & cannot submit to dA.
If its not in the right place before you send your entry to me, it wont be entered until you put it right.

:star: Send your entry link or thumb code in a note to me please.

This is kind of like getting a FREE commission, except that you will be limited to suggesting a theme for me to interpret as I wish. The outcome of the finished artwork will be decided by me. I will send you a small print of the finished work but the artwork will remain mine to use as I please ~ just so we understand each other ;)

Ok, go get started. I want to be amazed & delighted!

I will join, but what do you mean with "the correct dA gallery"?

When I mentioned 'correct dA gallery' I simply meant that your entry should be submitted in the correct category ie. if it is a digital painting, submit it to 'Digital Art: Painting, and follow dA rules about what you can & cannot submit to dA.
that's all ;)
