tealove
I'm going to jump in on the draw-for-yourself-contest xD
Just because. ninja <3
FOORM! XD
Name: tealove
The Artwork: [link <3]
Date of work: Jan 16th, 2007
Why you chose the subject: It's not as much about me chosing the subject as the subject choosing me. The girl is my OC, and she demanded that I draw her, and as I really hadn't drawn any of my characters in a 'serious' picture for a really long time, I fell for it. ninja
What you learned: That I've been missing using a lot of really bright colours in combination, and that I love the fresh feeling this picture has. xD I need to do more like it. *-*
Your shop/auction/thread: None currently. xD They've been shut down. 3nodding
>w< I'm still trying to sort through potential WIP ideas for your big contest, Willy. surprised I haven't really been able to draw at all the past few days though because my new course started... xD But this weekend I'll see if I can't finally whip up something worth entering into that . 3nodding

Date of work: 1-29-07
Why you chose the subject: I really liked this avi, but not many people will draw it. so after seeing this I descided to try it for myself.
What you learned: grass is annoying to shade =/ I didn't think it it would be as hard as it was, since I was used to shadding hair, and its some what the same, but I was very wrong.

Eh...feel free to correct me xDD
LET'S PARTAYYYYYY!!!!! 8DDDDDD <333
Please say "hi" if we've been good friends, if we're merely acquaintances, or if we've never met before in our lives! xD Everyone is welcome!
:: Events (cuz what's a party w/o events?)
1.
Karaoke Contest!!
Sue me for being Asian, but this party's first event is....Karaoke!!! blaugh
How it works:
1 person grabs the mike and belts out a few verses. The others must try and guess the name of the song and artist! First person to get it gets a point tallied to their name and in the end, the one with teh most points will win...
I will start this off with a verse. But afterwards, anyone may jump in. If you have stated more than 4 lines of a song, and no one can guess it, you get a point!
Important: to keep this fair, no use of mules or I shall hafta lop off your head (then disqualify you)!!! Also, to keep this easy for me to tally, one person sings at a time, and when someone wins, post their name+1 in bold red
End date: TBA

Draw for Yourself Art Contest!
Lately, I've seen a lot of artist work-aholics who've noted that they haven't had time to draw for themselves due to an inundation of commissions. So, as an over-indulger of self art, I'd like to promote more self-drawing in fellow artists.
Rules: This is sort of an art showcase. Submit a work which you must have started on Jan. 15th or later, for no one but yourself! The subject is purely of your choosing. Draw your heart out! heart
Deadline is on Jan. 31st (kind tight, I'm sorry), same time as my other contest. You may submit a WIP for consideration if you are not finished. This will not handicap you during the judging.
Fill out this form:
In the end I will choose the one which I personally like teh most (yesh, I'm biased. deal with it.) and they will recieve a Coco Kitty!! blaugh heart
This is my present to the artist community, to let you know that you should take time for yourself every now and then and don't get too wrapped up in commissions! whee I hope that even if you don't win the kitty, you will find that doing some art for yourself is a reward in itself :3
****Important: There must be a min. of 3 different applicants for this contest to be valid. <3
