Exhibit 13: A Soldier; A Tribute.

Journal Entry: Tue Dec 7, 2010, 5:04 AM











This exhibit is a personal tribute to a man who has done alot to get us where we are today. This goes out to an incredibly selfless man, who does alot to help everyone he can. A courageous man who keeps on going despite all odds. This goes out to our host, David Bixler, who was seriously injured serving his country in Afghanistan. This is a tribute to him and the many like him who serve their country with honour, courage and bravery in the face of many dangers. This is for the men and women who put their lives on the line for their country and their mates. This exhibit is unique in that it is not an open and closed case, it is a beginning, which will grow over time as our artists complete their pieces. Revisit the exhibit over time to see new pieces! This is an a-political tribute to some great individuals and does not partake in any political agenda.

We are also launching our first weekly community contest! Sketch Wars.

Welcome to SketchWars, a battlefield with all kinds of artists who battle using their own sketches. SketchWars is for anyone, even if you're a newbie! Join in, fight, and learn from your experiences and the experiences of others!

How The Battle Works
• The contest is composed of rounds. Each round has a theme or concept. Every two days is a new round.
• A sketch can be anything, a drawing, speedpaint, graphic design, photograph, quick soundtrack, small game level, 3D model, etc. Be creative, a sketch is done quickly to grasp a concept or an idea. If you think of a creative way of sketching, do it!
• After the two days, an Administrator or Moderator will choose the next theme and the winner will get his/her reward!

Winning
• A winner is chosen by the administrator or moderator who created the theme. Winning is based upon various criteria such as humor, skills or creativity.
• The winner will win a badge(s) based upon what made their sketch a success! These badges will accumulate the more you win! And the more you win, the closer you get to unlocking the secret badges!
• The badges will be placed in your signature for all to see and admire!
• Not only will winners receive awesome badges, but will be featured throughout our networks such as DeviantArt, Facebook, and Twitter. You're art and talent will be exposed!

Our first theme is Illuminate so come join in!

Quite liking the exhibit :D The piece 'red caravan' is particularly striking.

So for this sketch wars thing, which sounds very interesting, where should we submit? Or comment, or whatever?

Don't worry about making the deadline with this one, it'll be an on-going exhibit so you can submit something when you are able.
