I decided it's time for a contest.

I've been thinking about this for a while, and I might as well get it posted now.

Contest Time!
Goal:
To create a bridge between the realms of literature and visual arts.

The Challenge:
Take one of my poems, doesn't have to be the whole thing, and create a piece of visual art of any form for it. At least one line from one of my poems must be included in the piece itself, as text (exempting sculpture etc, in which case the photo of the piece must contain the line). The line may be written in any way you like, but must be readable.

There also must be a link to the poem itself, (not to my profile page) in your description.

I don't expect a lot of response from this, since I'm not a "popular" artist, so deadline is when I receive a total of fifteen pieces or more from at least five artists. I will extend this by request.

There is no limit to the number of submissions.


Two divisions
First division: By Popular Vote
First place:
minimum of 1 year gift subscription
Second place: 3 month gift subscription
Third place: 1 month gift subscription

Second division: Poet's Choice
First place:
minimum of 1 year gift subscription
Second and Third:
Art request of choice from me (note what art I am capable of doing by taking a look through my gallery).

I will accept prize donations. I may also choose to increase the value of prizes at my own discretion, but they will not be decreased.

Gift Prizes

I hope so. It's the reverse of what I usually do.

I'll perhaps try myself, but I'm not sure of finding time, it'll be the contrary of what I'm usually doing. Drawing for poetry... Never thought of it!
Well see you back if I've got something! =p
