Ferice Holds Contest In Memory of Deceased Deviant

=TThealer:iconTThealer: reports, September 18, 2007
The recent passing of Deviant Art member; :iconjustannie:*Justannie due to an unfortunate automobile accident, has saddened
many here on DA.
Her passing has spurred on one Deviant :iconferice: to sponsor a contest in her name,with some really great prizes in order to celebrate her life!

The contest Theme is centered on one of *Justannie's favorite recreational pastimes, "Dancing". It can be any form of "dance" Watussie to Waltz. As long as it is a photograph, and as long as it's dance!

=Ferice was kind enough to take time and give me this brief interview....


Interview with =Ferice aka Violet:

Q. I understand that you are having a contest to celebrate the memory
of *Justannie could give us an idea as to the prizes that are available to be won?

A. Prizes are:
1st: 1 years subscription
2nd: 9 months subscription
3rd: 6 months subscription
3 merit awards of 3 months subscription each
plus journal featuring of the winners.

All the details are available in my Journal, [link]



Q. Is this going to be a peoples choice poll or will there be judges?

A. There will be judges, and I might add, the Contest closes October 8th.


Q. Annie was a friend of yours here on DA, can you tell us what you remember most about her, and a bit about her and her art?

A. She had a great sense of humor, always positive and supportive. Her art reflected her love for nature, fun and friends.


Q. Why a contest? Why not some type of memorial?

A. Through a contest we are able to give back to those who loved Annie.


Q. Thanks so much for your time =Ferice, is there anything
else you'd like to add?

A. Annie's tag line was 'Life is too short, let's have some fun before we die'. Let's all remember that

Many thanks to :iconjoe-veal: :iconzarafa: :iconladyaliceofoz: and :icontthealer: for their generous donations.

Big thanks also to those who will help me with the judging :iconjoe-veal: :iconzarafa: :iconlauraest:.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It would be really great if everyone would be kind enough to slide by =Ferice's place and cheer on the contestants, and help celebrate :iconjustannie:'s life! She was right! Life is too short, let's have some fun! :nod:

Sorry to read about this loss. I've not been as active lately, so no doubt I missed this. Wonderful idea to celebrate and honor this life. I did not know her, but already feel my life would have been much richer had I!

This is the kind of thing that humbles me greatly, and gives me great respect for our lives. Thanks for posting this, Bob; Thanks to =Ferice for her goodness; Thanks to *Justannie, even though I did not know her, for touching so many people in her short span here.

:heart:
