One week left... and feature time!

Journal Entry: Sun Nov 22, 2009, 4:51 AM



There's only one week left until the deadline of the Express, Don't Repress Contest, people! :eager: You can send in your entries until Monday, November 30th (I won't be too picky about the time; all the entries that are waiting for me in my inbox on Tuesday morning will be accepted ;)).
Also, *Fant0me and *DigDug71, two wonderful photographers, have joined the judging panel. Welcome! :aww: Hopefully they'll help us make an even better choice in picking the three winners... 'cause it's going to be tough! ^^;

*Ralphy-Leone caught my 15,999th Kiriban - congratulations! :clap:





THEME

To express the emotions of life is to live. To express the life of emotions is to make art.
- Jane Heap

What would we be without emotions? It’s a philosophical question many people have probably asked themselves at some point in their lives, and I think the answer is very simple: without emotions, we simply wouldn’t be. Emotions make us human, they define who we are, and they will always be a part of us. Which is what makes them so very interesting!

You are all invited to take part in this contest by sending in your drawings, paintings, photographs, sculptures, etc. of people (or animals, for that matter) who, in some way or another, convey a certain emotion, mood, or feeling. That’s the basic idea – the rest is up to you!

Here are a few emotions and feelings you could use, in case you need some inspiration:

happiness, anger, sadness, pride, guilt, shame, longing, affection, love, hate, pain, sorrow, depression, euphoria, fear, anxiety, apprehension, contentment, enthusiasm, excitement…

As you can see, the possibilities are endless. You don’t have to restrict yourself to one of the basic emotions; you can also choose to show a more abstract feeling that might not classify as an emotion per se.






RULES

:bulletwhite: All visual media are allowed – in other words, everything apart from literature will be accepted (traditional and digital art, photography, artisan crafts, stock images, etc.).
:bulletwhite: Using literature in combination with a visual medium (e.g., a drawing with a short poem written next to it) is allowed as well. If you choose to do this, however, you should submit your deviation in one of the art categories, not in the literature category.
:bulletwhite: You can send in both old and new deviations, so entries do not have to be created especially for this contest.
:bulletwhite: Crude or sexual content is not allowed. This doesn’t mean that your entry can’t have any blood or nudity in it, but, hey – there are limits.
:bulletwhite: Your entry must have some sort of human or animal form in it. This can be an entire body or a face, a pair of scowling eyes, flushed cheeks or lips curled up in a smile, a dangling foot or two intertwined hands, one person, a group, a couple – well, you catch my drift. Anything will do, really, as long as the emotion is conveyed by living, breathing creatures. (An example of an entry that will not be accepted is a picture of a deserted street to illustrate a feeling of isolation.)
:bulletwhite: There are no other rules concerning the content of your entry. You have a free rein!
:bulletwhite: Please let me know which emotion or feeling is portrayed in your entry. It doesn’t matter how you do this: you can put it in the title of your deviation, write it in your Artist’s Comments, or tell me by sending me a note.
:bulletwhite: You can submit up to two entries per person.
:bulletwhite: And last but not least: your entry must be made by you. Anyone found guilty of art theft will be reported to dA immediately. Naturally you are allowed to use references, but if you do, please credit the original artist.

ENTERING

To enter the contest, just send me (*Suanin) a note with the thumbnail or link to your deviation.

Please put my icon (: iconsuanin : with the colons, but without the spaces) or a link to the news article in your Artist’s Comments, to help spread the word about the contest.

I’d greatly appreciate it if you would support the news article about the contest to make it popular. Thank you! :+favlove:

Two more judges needed

Journal Entry: Mon Nov 16, 2009, 4:17 AM



Hi guys! :wave:

There are only two weeks left until the deadline of the 'Express, Don't Repress' contest, so if you want to participate but haven't started working on your entry yet, you'd better get cracking! Time flies, especially when you're having fun - we all know that! ;P Right. That being said, let me elaborate on the title of this journal entry. So far, I've already received 306 entries, many of which are photographs. Since the entries will partly be judged on their technique and skill and the majority of the judges do not have any experience with photography, I'm looking for two artists who consider photography as their main field of work and who would be willing to be a judge for the 'Express, Don't Repress' contest. If you're interested, send me a note and I'll get back to you! :D

I'll also be giving away another Kiriban feature to the person who catches my 15,999th pageview. Keep your eyes peeled, people! :eyes:

By the way, has anyone wearing contacts ever had the experience of suddenly holding only half of their lens in their hand? I have, and I can tell you: it's weird. :XD: Contacts aren't supposed to fall apart!

Kiriban feature

Journal Entry: Wed Nov 4, 2009, 1:14 AM



As promised, here's the feature for the person who caught my 15,015 kiriban: *DigDug71! :dance:






I also want to use this opportunity to advertise Doug's contest, which is all about Patriotic Photography.

"What does patriotism mean to you? The theme of our contest is simple, show your patriotism through your photo! It doesn't matter what country you live in or what your nationality is ... everyone is invited to participate (we have an international panel of judges)!"

I think it's a wonderful theme for a contest! Unfortunately I'm no photographer myself (and even if I was, I wouldn't know what to take a picture of :P), but to all of you who are, this contest could be a great inspiration! :) If you're interested and want to know more, you can read all the details here.

Express, Don't Repress: the story so far

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 3, 2009, 7:31 AM



:bulletwhite: The 'Express, Don't Repress' Contest has been running for a month now, which means that we're halfway through (the deadline is Monday, November 30th). I've already received a massive amount of entries - 253 in total - so I thought it would be nice to put them together in one news article, so as to inspire the people who haven't entered the contest yet and to give the people who have some more publicity. I spent the entire morning copying and pasting all the thumbnails, going through my messages to refresh my memory about which emotions the artists wanted to portray, and placing the entries in the appropriate categories. But it was worth the effort! :D You can see the news article here - don't forget to give it your love! :+favlove:

:bulletwhite: I'm going to give another feature away soon, to the person who catches my 15,015th kiriban! Only 40 pageviews to go, so keep an eye on that counter! ;)

A few things

Journal Entry: Sun Oct 11, 2009, 10:17 AM



:bulletwhite: Wow... The 'Express, Don't Repress' contest has been open for a week now, and I already received - brace yourselves, people; are you holding onto something? - 150 entries! Unbelievable! :faint: I had never expected the contest to be such a success, and there are still seven weeks to go - it's going to be impossible to pick three winners in the end. What did I get myself into? :XD: Anyway, I posted all the amazing entries in my favourites folder, so feel free to take a look at them! :aww:

:bulletwhite: As for my previous contest: I promised an extensive journal feature to the top winner of the visual category, so here it is!

:iconleo-2:
=Leo-2, 1st place winner in the Wish Yourself Another World contest





:bulletwhite: I'd like to celebrate the fact that my page has been viewed for over 13,000 times now (*speechless*) by featuring someone - the person who catches my 13,800th pageview. (My birthday is on August 13th [13-8], hence the strange number. ;)) If that person is you, take a screenshot of the number 13,800 at the top of the page and send it to me in a note. You may win a feature!

:bulletwhite: I haven't been in a very creative mood these days (too busy with school), which is why I've put my last Seven Sins drawing on hold. I will definitely finish it, though, and I'm hoping to get it done before October 26th, so that I can enter the entire series in *Traditional-Artists' Seven Deadly Sins contest. Fingers crossed...

:bulletwhite: Finally, I want to promote a few awesome contests that are being held on dA! :D

:bulletpurple: Fortune Teller Game/Contest, hosted by =mamazmeilor
The Tarot Major Arcana is the most well-known set of 'fortune telling' cards. There are 22 cards in the Major Arcana; they are cool, they are mysterious and it's totally awesome to look at them. So let us give it a try and make a new revised and improved deck of cards!
You can read more information here.

THEME

To express the emotions of life is to live. To express the life of emotions is to make art.
- Jane Heap

What would we be without emotions? It’s a philosophical question many people have probably asked themselves at some point in their lives, and I think the answer is very simple: without emotions, we simply wouldn’t be. Emotions make us human, they define who we are, and they will always be a part of us. Which is what makes them so very interesting!

You are all invited to take part in this contest by sending in your drawings, paintings, photographs, sculptures, etc. of people (or animals, for that matter) who, in some way or another, convey a certain emotion, mood, or feeling. That’s the basic idea – the rest is up to you!

Here are a few emotions and feelings you could use, in case you need some inspiration:

happiness, anger, sadness, pride, guilt, shame, longing, affection, love, hate, pain, sorrow, depression, euphoria, fear, anxiety, apprehension, contentment, enthusiasm, excitement…

As you can see, the possibilities are endless. You don’t have to restrict yourself to one of the basic emotions; you can also choose to show a more abstract feeling that might not classify as an emotion per se.






RULES

:bulletwhite: All visual media are allowed – in other words, everything apart from literature will be accepted (traditional and digital art, photography, artisan crafts, stock images, etc.).
:bulletwhite: Using literature in combination with a visual medium (e.g., a drawing with a short poem written next to it) is allowed as well. If you choose to do this, however, you should submit your deviation in one of the art categories, not in the literature category.
:bulletwhite: You can send in both old and new deviations, so entries do not have to be created especially for this contest.
:bulletwhite: Crude or sexual content is not allowed. This doesn’t mean that your entry can’t have any blood or nudity in it, but, hey – there are limits.
:bulletwhite: Your entry must have some sort of human or animal form in it. This can be an entire body or a face, a pair of scowling eyes, flushed cheeks or lips curled up in a smile, a dangling foot or two intertwined hands, one person, a group, a couple – well, you catch my drift. Anything will do, really, as long as the emotion is conveyed by living, breathing creatures. (An example of an entry that will not be accepted is a picture of a deserted street to illustrate a feeling of isolation.)
:bulletwhite: There are no other rules concerning the content of your entry. You have a free rein!
:bulletwhite: Please let me know which emotion or feeling is portrayed in your entry. It doesn’t matter how you do this: you can put it in the title of your deviation, write it in your Artist’s Comments, or tell me by sending me a note.
:bulletwhite: You can submit up to two entries per person.
:bulletwhite: And last but not least: your entry must be made by you. Anyone found guilty of art theft will be reported to dA immediately. Naturally you are allowed to use references, but if you do, please credit the original artist.
