Hi folks,

Sorry for not being very talkative lately, I don't have much time to spend on my fav communities, I try to answer everyone, but it's hard to achieve as I don't have enough free time! Thank you for alllllllll your kindness, comments and favs



On other news, I would like to give my help by spreading the word:

*painters is holding a contest called "Bring out the trash"!

The idea within this theme is for your work to be a political statement about what your feelings are regarding this subject. As never before we want this contest to be a great showcase of your amazing art talent, telling something people needs to hear about! Saving the Planet is the responsibility of us all, and it can start at home, in our daily actions.

There are 10 major prices and it is open to everyone (if you're not a member just send a note titled "join" and you can take a part). There's time until may 17th!!


To participate in this contest you must be a member of *painters. If you are not, don't stress, you can apply for the club, and even if they don't add you inmediately, if they have your "Join" note, that's enough.

Your entry must be a traditional painting. Allowed mediums include watercolors, oils, acrylics, inks, and some other typer of liquid or semiliquid painting mediums. For this time, and this contest only, they will also allow the inclusion of foreign objects, that stand for the recycle/reuse theme. This meaning: You can submit as entry: a painting made just from paint (as normally we submit into the club), or paint over a reused object (see this as example: [link] ) or use recycled elements as a part of the painting (see Berni’s work as example: [link] ). In any case this has to be done by hand, digital collages won’t be accepted. Please take in consideration that the works must be overall a painting, so please keep a measured inclusion of things, so it’s not simply a collage. Painting must be the predominant medium of the work. If you have doubts, please consult the club by note.

Every member can only submit 1 entry to this contest. Your entry must be a scan or a photograph of your traditional work, of at least 700 pixels of width. Take in consideration that a good photograph will help your entry show better, and try avoiding the flares (there’s a good tutorial to do it here: [link] ). You must upload your entry into your deviantart gallery and add in the description the fact that is a submission for this contest.

You can read the rules and guidelines here

At this time they have only received 3 entries! So enter the contest, you have all your chances to win a great prize!
