Bluelight weekly 2-D Design contest Round 7: Emotion

2-D Art - Emotion

RULES

Lets try and keep this fresh. The idea here is the physical manipulation of mediums in real life.

1. Any work of art or variation thereof which has been previously submitted for one of the contest rounds cannot be used in subsequent rounds of the contest.

2. Works must be your original work and ones that have never been copyrighted or, if copyrighted, that you are the sole copyright owner of.
2a. No submitting works for other people, for friends, etc. Your OWN work, very simple.

3. Only one work may be entered per contest.

4. All entries must be free of watermarks, signatures and borders

5. Entries must be no wider than 700 and no higher than 700.

6. Photoshop use is allowed , however,
6a. No complete photographs; i.e. pieces of photos/images may be used as long as the manipulation is obvious; there will be a suitable thread for your 100% manipulated/photoshopped photographs (in the near future).

7. Please include the original dimensions of your work, the mediums used, and any other info you feel is relevant. (your piece's pertinence to the theme is optional)


8. Deadline for entries is 12am eastern on the posted deadline date.

9. Voting ends at 12am eastern on the posted end date.

10. Post your entries in the appropriate thread in the form of an image, not a link to click on.

11. Don't be a dummy and vote for your own work, try and make it fun.

If you have a problem with another contestant's entry adhering to the contest guidelines, please PM the forum moderators. Do not try to begin a debate about the issue within the contest submission or poll thread! There will be zero tolerance towards any attempts to devolve a contest thread into a bash-fest or witch hunt.

We will pick the next theme and post it the night a contest ends for the next round so people have a full 14 days to produce something and submit it. After all the entries have been posted, a poll will be added on the last night, so people can vote. Voting will take place from midnight to midnight over the following 3 days (12am Sunday - 12am Wednesday).

Those who wish to participate in sharing larger images of their works (for desktop wallpaper use, for instance) may do so by providing a link only to the full sized version in the same post as their entry.

Thank you and have fun!

Please submit your entries in this thread and a mod will re-post them when voting starts in a separate voting thread.

Submissions: August 01 - August 25
Voting: August 26 - 27


Quick note: We'll try running the arts contests at two-week durations, hopefully giving contestants better opportunity to not only dip into stock archives, but to create anew. The current round will run for two and a half weeks, only because we're kicking it off mid-week and a week and a half would be too short, IMO.

Ideas are welcome, welcome, welcome! Please post your ideas in the New Arts Contests Discussion thread.

Part of a series I'm doing based off of a photo of my friend (it's in my gallery). So far I have a b&w, color, and this is the third step. Three more to go.

High key, acrylic on cold press illustration board.
