Wow! The work from the October art contest just makes us want to sprout for joy!
The prompt for October was: Sprout🌱
You might recognize it from Day 20 of the official Inktober prompt list!
Our contestants really grew as artists with this prompt. Check out all the entries!
The winners were picked during Critique Arena, our monthly live event for members. Our judges seeded the top 16 against each other, and the audience voted for their favorites. Sixteen battled it out in the arena, but only 2 made the final cut!
You can experience all the drama in the recording of the event, but in the meantime here are the two winning entries:
Winner! Art by Norman Morana.
Winner! Art by Aurelia Nobleia.
This is a first time win for Aurelia and a third time win for Norman! Woohoo!
And here are the rest of the entries that made the Sweet 16 (such great work all around!):
A big thank you to all who submitted, we are so impressed with the work you are doing!
Be sure to enter our November art contest for a chance to win a live art critique and all the glory 💪
As the year winds down, there’s so much reason for hope! So the prompt for November is: Star 🌟
We’ll be doing TWO Critique Arenas this time, Classic and All Star. Classic is run like our usual Critique Arena, and All Star is for just the winners from the previous year. Entries for the Classic version are due Nov 30. Be sure to submit on the Forum and the Critique Arena website!
See you next time in the arena…the Critique Arena!
