Well, here it is. I chose this one because it gives the artist a few options. You're free to crop how you like, include/exclude what you want. If you're posting your finished painting to your blog, please be sure to credit the photographer - in this case it's Linda Shantz (me!). A reciprocal link is always a nice gesture.
While you are free to sell your painting, we ask that you don't enter it into any juried shows or exhibitions. The main reason for this is that many of you are working from the same image, and it will save you some embarrassment - it's quite possible that two or more artists may submit from the same reference, which is just not a good thing, as it will possibly discredit you with the jury.
If you would like a higher res image of this, please email me at thevirtualparty77@yahoo.ca and I will send it to you. Likewise, when you're finished your painting, please email me a jpeg at the same address, along with your name, size of your paining, and medium. Feel free to include the link to your own website or blog, and I will try to post it all in a follow-up blog post, here.
The rest of the instructions can be found above, near the header. Any questions, please ask!
Have fun, and happy painting! Looking forward to seeing everyone's work!

ReplyDeleteI wish you could extend the deadline. this didn't come up on my blog until 2 days ago, and I've been so busy I couldn't get at it until today and I am the world's slowest artist...
ReplyDeleteAck! I thought I had until Sunday - but it looks like tomorrow is the deadline. I am still going to try, but we are having a ton of storms going through here so I may loose my internet =p Oh, well - great photo and I am going to enjoy doing the painting! ready, set, paint!
