'Fractal Friday' and a CONTEST!

^Sophquest:iconSophquest: reports, Dec 7, 2007
:holly: *Hello Fractal Family~ and All DA Artists!

:love: Firstly, I would like to announce an end of the year Fractal Contest!

I’ve been ruminating over what I thought would be an interesting idea
and have decided that it would be cool to see people’s art in collections!
So, beginning tomorrow Dec 8th, you may begin to submit your entries.
The thing is, you must NOT create new pieces for this contest. :lol:
This contest is about what you’ve created throughout 2007!
It’s about taking stock of what you’ve accomplished and learned this year.
The reason I decided this, is because of a discussion that I had with my
Mother over the Thanksgiving Holiday. She expressed to me that she truly
enjoyed the work of a fractalist when she could recognize their pieces as
part of a cohesive collection…..something I will also focus on for 2008! ;P



:bulletred: Name of the contest: ’THE COHESIVE COLLECTION CONTEST’

:bulletred: Rules: Create a cohesive collection of pieces that you made
this year in 2007, then combine them artistically in a polyptych.
(A work of art composed of several different panels)
You can choose up to 20 artworks that you would like to group together,
but you must have at least 6 pieces to qualify as a collection.

:bulletred: Prizes: 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place Winners will have their collections
in this article each week for the month of January. And I will purchase
a six, three and one month subscription respectively, for the winners.
(:heart: Other Prize Donations will be greatly appreciated! :heart:)

:bulletred: Judges: I will be asking a number of Artists to act as judges.
But, if you’re interested… please let me know. (But, judges will NOT be able to enter.)



My idea for this is to show the entire DA Community that all fractals
do not look alike! ~ Moreover, many fractalists have a signature style.
One that is easily recognizable as their work.
Are you a spiral junkie? Do you excel at making Julians? Psychedelica? Alien art?
Flower power? Metallics? 3-D? Geometrical? Minimalism?

Get the picture? ~ Show this entire community who YOU are as a fractalist!

Please combine your pieces into one artwork and frame it in either black
or white, then sign your name on the bottom and send me the link by note.
:please: Please make it large enough to see each piece in the collection clearly!
REMEMBER: This contest is about cohesiveness….so choose very carefully!



:heart: Have fun! ~ With love and respect for all artists, :holly: Sophquest




:gallery: Now without further ado….Here is your Fractal Friday Wall for the week!




:clap: 'Fractal Friday's Wall of Wows'! ~ 12/07/07 :clap:

:bulletgreen: How to Suggest a Fractal DD

:bulletred: Send me a note titled 'DD Suggestion'

:bulletred: Put the link or thumbnail code of the piece you want to suggest, in the note!

:bulletred: If you'd like; write what you love and respect about the piece!
~ I want to know what you think!

:bulletred: Please, only 1 suggestion per note.

:bulletred: You may now suggest yourself, as well as someone else!

I figured since you had just posted it you'd still be online and able to post it somewhere before getting inundated with notes asking the same question. So no need to be sorry!
