Two contests today
ACEO Cherries and Silver is my entry for Abstract Art, Traditional Art & Collectors group's June Challenge. For this group, a photo album got created with seven different photo references and you had to do one of those references in any size or medium you chose. I did an ACEO in full Prismacolor painting with complementary underpainting, and even with tweaking, the scan isn't as rich as the actual art. There wasn't a set minimum bid for the June Challenge so I listed it for $9.95 because there was no way I wanted to win a jpg enough to take a chance of this going for 99 cents or something. If I don't get as many bids on it as others, big deal, at least I created it and it came out that great. If it doesn't sell I may not relist it, because I'm very fond of it.
The other one is this month's Nibblefest. It's a Thursday and Lisa is probably coming over tonight, so I'll work on "In the Mist" while she's here and post late in the evening. I have some ideas and they're for colored pencil too, but more of a combination of textured and textureless...
