what i look for in a winning piece

well i had once filled this out... then everything changed so i lost all the info
so i'll make it brief and update it later

i looking for people to show their individual styles, truely express your self. not just candybar art.

any medium, any style. the ones that i find most interesting are the pictures that use a style i've never seen before, or show me something i'd never thought of before.

in my last contest... there were many entries a lot of people didn't expect to win. so let your true style show through.
these are just some of the things/ habits i remember about Rosier... i know that many are probably not unique to her, because all cats do some of them. these are just what i remember and loved about her

-whenever i would leave the house to get the mail or go to my car. she would peek her head through the screen door and meow until i got back.

-whenever i came home, she would always be sitting in the window of my mom's room waiting for me. then would run to the entry way to greet me.

-she loved to see how small a box she could fit into.

-"must attack the paper bag" rarely sitting in them... rather destroy and attack the paper bags.

-whenever we took out the suit case she would sit in it anyway she could to prevent us from leaving.. she a stone cold glare that could stop steam in it's tracks.

-she loved to play fetch with little fuzzy mice

-she was extremely jumpy. (just like me )

-she was obsessive about being clean... if you dropped a piece of lint on her or a string... she need to be clean right away... (girl obsessed with her looks)

-her favorite way to be held way the same way you would hold a baby when burping them. except i held her feet in my hand instead of a bum.

-carried socks to show she was angry

-always sat on my homework when i was working on it.

-prefered to drink my water from the glass to the water in the bowl. often tipped it over too.

-loved to lay on me when i slept. mostly on my hips and thighs (i sleep on my side)

-loved to get her picture taken... i never met a bigger ham. she always tried to look regal.


i hope this give you artist some ideas.
remember there will be an additional award to the artist that best captures her attitude. use these as ideas and inspiration. thanks-j

extra stuff with no where to go... you don't have to read this...
