Hey guys : D So we have our winners this month in

1st place: Gomeric
2cd place: Teacloud
3rd place: Nobody's fault


And little comments on everyone who submitted a drawing this months, submissions : )

Gomeric: Your fangtooth fish was an excellent interpretation of something that was not really attractive but beutifully drawn at the same time. We really liked the feeling it evoked... of like but dislike at the same time : ) great job

Teacloud: We love the feeling your drawing envoked. Kind of an empty longing, someone who is invisible on the outside but could possibly be beautiful with in. Beautifull drawing, thank you for your submission this month : )

Nobody's fault: With your submission your words came and took us more then the drawing itself. A very sad message but unfortunately a very real situation which many people face. We found that the words you used held a powerfull message.

Lemon black tea: Beautiful submission, we loved checking out all the refined details and connection between the characters in your drawings. : ) We didn't feel like your drawings related as well to the monthly theme of something ugly however. But the drawings you submitted were lovely, and we equally enjoyed seeing how you connected the characters together through there tears. : ) lovely piece of art!


A big thanks to everyone who competed this month. The theme was not an easy one, so it was great that people didn't let that discourage them, and still tried out ^_^ !!!! Great job everyone!

Welcome to the "Artist and Art collectors paradise" monthly art contest.

So I kinda almost skewed the prompt a little....
ANYWAY--- just a few notes

1. I'm still new on my tablet and I'm stuck using Paint until I can get my ID scanned so I can verify that I'm a student for Photoshop. So poo on that.

2. This picture started out fairly harmless and grew into something really personal to me. All the insults in bright red in the background are actually things people have said when they thought I couldn't hear. I'm really self conscious because of some rude comments so this is a bit of a manifestation of it... pixelated.

I think your submission this month is very profound actually. Not so much for the art itself, but more for the words used... I think many people have been were you have been, and can relate to it.

Thank you for your entry
