pfft yeah i know that feeling, my golden spiral flame decorated porcelain trim laced chinese puzzle box lost out to a bland fugly green couch and lame white room with darklight shading WITH NO TEXTURES.

i got honorable mention out of pitty but they said only IN CLASS students could place 1st 2nd or 3rd in the competition. i was the only one who wasn't in the 3D class to participate...

Moral of the story? College competitions are always rigged shit fests.
i feel for yeh bro.

I did enjoy your RD entry.

And yes it does suck to lose out to what may feel to be less original and more popular.

That said, in any case of artistic competition, one would hope that the satisfaction you feel from accomplishing a wonderful piece of art is enough of a reward.

Creating art for money are prizes leaves a very small window of happiness for the art you create.

Fuck minds.

i agree. most of the art on front page is fan art shit about things i could care less about. front page and competitions are always going to have bias and i can understand it for viral flash movies with HILARIOUS jokes but for still image art submissions? there should be a little more effort in pushing more original paintings etc.

for example: why the FUCK is leo and satan fan art always on the front page? have they considered putting that other artists' work up instead? probably not

Writing on toilet walls is the purest form of art since it is done neither for financial rewards nor critical acclaim.
