Everyone for reading this episode
Welcome
Welcome everyone to the Art Contest.
Please read carefully.
Dawn till Dusk
Before anything begins, let’s be clear about one thing,
this contest exists for artists, it's to feel the joy of winning something through efforts.
Mavis
This is a space for people who love creating.
Digital or traditional,if you have a story to tell through art, you belong here.
Reader
Judges are not here to intimidate anyone.
We are here to observe, understand, and appreciate, there is no formality with judging, all will be rewarded based on their performance (θ‿θ)
Zee
No one is expected to be perfect.
Only honest effort matters, guys we learn through contest like these ,so enjoy it.(・∀・)
Zee
That’s also why every rule is written clearly.
Rules aren’t here to scare you,they’re here to protect you.
I myself realized in few contest unfair practices were practiced.
Zee
and i don't want such thing to occur again in a competition meant to be fun :(
SEAN
Fairness is the backbone of this event.
Every artist is judged using the same criteria, the same process, and the same transparency.
Dolphin
If we didn't create such rules :/, effort would lose its value.
And talent would feel ignored.
Shavi
So please,read calmly, ask freely, and don’t rush.
Questions are welcome,confusion is not a crime, we will mak sure we clear your confusion through this chatstory つ ◕‿◕ ༽つ
Dawn till Dusk
This contest is for:
* Artists who want to grow
*Artists who want to be seen
* Judges who value honesty
* And a community built on trust( i feel such rules will create a better community) in this submission gc.
Shavi
Ofcourse, if you didn't do your best, it's a plus for us judges too, as we won't have to waste our points.
SEAN
nvm her, she is just a bit stingy
Mavis
there won't be favoritism and
I Mavis make a oath to not curse any contestants.
Reader
Guys, every score has meaning and and every point has its value.
SEAN
And if you ever feel unsure
comment, ask, or message. We’re here for that reason. We know this contest might be too much for artist and might feel very much confused for few with rules n all.
Themes
Dawn till Dusk
Everyone, welcome to Dawny's lil world 🌎 where I rule.
Mavis
I agree with you granny
SEAN
Reader, start, *whispering*.
Reader
So everyone, Most Points reduction don’t happen because of bad art…
They happen because of small rule mistakes on Day One.
Dolphin
So today we’re clearing the biggest confusion first 👀
Themes & how to enter properly.
Shavi
Artists, you are allowed to choose ONLY ONE theme for your artwork.
SEAN
If you chose to draw for both traditional and digital, you can pick two different theme for em.
Zee
Let us repeat that clearly:
👉 ONE artwork = ONE theme
No mixing,no combining. no “a little bit of everything.” :p
Reshu
Why?
Because when an artwork tries to fit many themes,
it usually ends up fitting none strongly.
SEAN
Initially,we decided to give just one theme , but we realised, one theme might not bring out your imagination and your choice might vary with just one theme
Reader
And remember ,theme relevance carries points.
The better your art fits your chosen theme,
the higher your score
Dawn till Dusk
You may choose any ONE of the following:
1)Love for Another
2) Love for the Self
3) Love That Is Given
4)Love That Is Remembered
5)Love From Afar
Choose the one your idea connects with the most.
SEAN
We will give a brief information about each theme, i found few artists were troubled with valentine day, some mentioned "You are single?, so why are you joining.
Dolphin
So, we gave themes on different froms of love.
Dawn till Dusk
1)Love for Another
Love directed toward someone else , a partner, family member, friend, or even a stranger.
It focuses on care, sacrifice, protection, loyalty, or deep emotional connection with another person.
SEAN
2)Love for the Self
Love that comes from self acceptance and self respect.
It represents healing, confidence, growth, self worth, and learning to value oneself, even after pain or struggle.
hoho, don't you love to glaze at your mirror every morning at tell yourself how dazzling you are😏
SEAN
The mirror is my best friend because when I cry it never laughs
- Charlie Chaplin ❤️
Aries
3)Love expressed without expecting anything in return.
It highlights kindness, generosity, compassion, and acts of giving, whether emotional, physical, or spiritual.
Zee
4)Love That Is Remembered
Love that lives on through memories, even if the person or moment is gone.
It reflects nostalgia, loss, remembrance, gratitude, and emotional echoes of the past.
Shavi
5)Love From Afar
Love that exists without closeness or direct contact.
It can represent long distance love, unspoken feelings, admiration, longing, or caring silently from a distance.
SEAN
When commenting under the contest post, use this exact format:
Name - Your name
Theme- Digital/Traditional
Example:
Name- Sean
Thme- Love From Afar(Traditional)
Aries
If you choose both digital and traditional, you must choose one different theme for both of them.
Name - Your name
1) Theme 1 - Love that is given ( Digital)
2) Theme 2 - Love for the self
( Traditional).
SEAN
Your theme choice directly affects your score.
The closer your artwork aligns with the theme,
the more points you earn in Theme Relevance.
SEAN
Also, it's normal when a theme overlaps with other theme, but make your theme fits perfectly with your artwork.
Dawn till Dusk
Take your time.
