Calling all artists!! (Longtime artists, newbie artists, occasional artists, or people that just want to try things for fun).
This was the highest number of votes that have ever been cast! So wonderful to see everyone coming out and supporting these wonderful artists, and multiple people voting for more than one artist.
Before I announce this weeks theme, I should mention that...
We have a winner!
Last weeks theme was Spirit.
I am so excited to announce last weeks winner.
Without further adieu...
Congratulations! With a score of 4.5, @gailbelga with the submission Spirit, which you can see the Original Post here
First off this won the popular vote with 34 votes, quite impressive. Also, I always suggest people writing something with their submission and in this case with an already pleasant piece, the story/reasoning behind it definitely helped. I adored not only the backstory but also how peaceful and happy the Spirits seemed.
Honorable Mention
Even though there is no prize awarded for honorable mentions, I did want to at least mention this artist as they did place second (and a very close second at that) with a score of 4.25. This artist also had the runner-up in popular vote with a total of 21 votes placed. This was a wonderful piece.
@allerie00 with the submission Spirit of a Woman, which you can see the Original post here
Thank you for all those that submitted a piece of Art, you are all amazing!

Here we go again... It's time to submit some amazing Art
Week 15's Theme:
This can be in whatever Visual Art form you like (Painted, sculpted, sketched, whatever visual form) as long as it is 100% your own work.
[At this time I am not taking photography submissions as there are many out there. Check out the additional contests below for ones that do photography]
Prize:
WINNER - 10 Steem
Contest ends on Saturday, January 20th at 10:00 am EST (Eastern Standard Time)
Note: I am giving a bit of extra time this week, so you will have an extra 10 hours than usual since this post is coming out later
How to Win
Comments for you during the VOTING PHASE count for 25% of your score (this has changed from upvotes on submission post)
Art submissions are judged fairly and unbiased by @topkpop and will be scored on Creativity, Originality, Quality, and Popularity
Voting Phase Info:
The Voting Phase begins on a new post from Jan 20th and ends Jan 21st 11:59pm EST.
Scoring
Assuming each rule has been followed, each submission gets scored in 4 categories. Creativity, Originality, Quality, Popularity. All categories are scored out of 5 by me, and often times I also use at least one other set of eyes. The scores are then added together from all 4 categories and averaged to find a score out of 5. That is the winner.
Originality and Creativity count so try to think outside of the box as those get you higher points upon judging*
Example of my scoring sheet:
Winners will be announced the day after Voting Phase closes.
New Contest theme will be announced every Monday.
