Valentine's Day Contest

Sun Jan 29, 2006, 2:43 PM

Artists for Charity
aFc is an account maintained by the senior members of deviantart. The goal of aFc is to sell artwork as prints with all the proceeds going to a selected charity: UNICEF.




:heart:Valentines Day Contest:heart:

`ArtistsForCharity is proud to present a Valentine's Day contest.  Valentine's Day is considered to be a day for love so let us, the deviants of deviantart, show or express what our interpretation of love is.  We will be splitting the pieces up into two different categories, written and visual.  Each category will have a first, second, and third place with the appropriate prizes.  So show us your best :)



Note: this contest is just being run by `ArtistsForCharity.  The art will not be used as prints on the account.  We would just like to run a contest for you!




The rules:
:bulletblue: The piece should be a representation of your interpretation of love (either visual or written).  

:bulletblue: One submission per person (either one written or one visual, not one of each or multiple in a category)

:bulletblue: To submit: submit the piece as a normal piece to deviantART, then note `ArtistsForCharity with the link.  We will then place your piece as a thumb in the `ArtistsForCharity's journal.  Please clarify if the piece is written or visual in your note.

:bulletblue: Please do not send links to old deviations out of your gallery.  Create something new.

:bulletblue: The contest will close on Friday, February 10th at 8pm EST, and the winners will be announced on February 14th.



Prizes are as follows:
1st Place
A print account or a year sub and a print up to 25 dollars (with s&h)

2nd Place
A 3 month sub and a print up to 25 dollars (with s&h)

3rd Place

Wow, it seems like a really cool competition. I'll give it a go. Artist for Charity is great. Although I do want to ask, can you make a piece that is visual and written? Like for example putting the words on a visual piece.

When you say, "Your interpretation of love," does it just have to be a good interpretation of love, or can it be a harsh cynical one? Does submitting one of the latter lower my chances any?

Question. If I send the link, and then do a complete revision, would you still be judging the first version? Because if so, I'm holding out on sending you the link.

"The piece should be a representation of your interpretation of love"

I hope this doesn't mean that the subject is limited to romantic love only
