"You be the Judge" March 19th

Thank you to everyone who voted in last week’s “You be the Judge” bi-weekly contest! Once again, it was an extremely tight race, with only 8 votes separating the top five paintings which received the highest vote count! In fact, one more vote would have resulted in a tie for third place! If a situation like that were to occur, both artists who received the same number of votes would be awarded a digital ribbon and both would be finalists in the Grand Prize round. Remember, every vote is extremely important to each of these artists, so be sure to take a minute and help them move one step closer to their goal by voting for your favorite painting.

Click here to see the three finalists from last week’s bi-weekly contest #3. In addition to being a finalist in the upcoming Grand Prize round next month, each of these artists will also receive a free download of one of my instructional art videos (Drawing, Value, Color or Edges).

There is only one more bi-weekly contest left before the Grand Prize round! If you want to submit your artwork, now is your last chance to do so. The final day for accepting submissions is Saturday, March 31, by 11:59 p.m. EST. After that, it’s on to the much anticipated Grand Prize round for a chance to win an incredible prize package which consists of items from Jack Richeson Co., American Artist Magazine, Blick Art Materials, Silver Brush Limited, Yale University Press, Jerry’s Artarama, ASW Express, Richard Schmid, Joe Bowler and Dan Gerhartz.

Here are 15 new paintings for viewers to vote on.

This lot is good. But the previous entries were enviable. Why there were only one water/acrylic colour entry/ies in this competition?

The competition could have also included charcoal and pastels.

My favorite was #6, I felt that the piece was well done, and that
the emotional contact between the figures was wonderful.

Painting #6 is by far the one that speaks the most! It gets my vote.

I voted for #2, but I found this decision harder than the past competitions, because one painting didn't stand out as being substantially better to me. They are all very lovely!

#5 "Pigtails" got my vote for being the most painterly. #14 would be my second choice.

#6 is incredible. The colors and the general feel of it just makes me smile. It brings back memories, I love it. It gets my vote! My second choice would be #1. I've always had an interest in painting people and faces. Beautiful, all of them are just beautiful!
