Cocktail Lounge

These are two types of cocktail lounges. The top is in the US and the other is in the Philippines. The two men below are drinking "tuba" an alcoholic beverage fermented from coconut juice. Both paintings are in oil on canvas.

You must accept the invitation within a month or it will automatically be removed. Be sure to check your "spam" box to see if a reply was mistaken as spam. Too often invitations go unanswered.

If your list is set to private, it still will be - you'll just have Monday Artday in it.

How It Works

Weekly Challenge - Every Monday a new challenge will be posted. That challenge ends two weeks after it begins. In other words, you have two weeks to complete each challenge - a new challenge each week and each challenge lasts 2 weeks so there are always 2 overlapping challenges. A "winner" will be chosen for the challenge of two weeks previous and posted. The winner and the new challenge will be posted by the host each Monday (hopefully).

If you win the weekly contest then you cannot win again for 4 weeks... that way everyone else has a chance.
