And The Winner Is... Jeff Brame!

The winner for the "Sailor" challenge is:

Jeff Brame!

Congratulations to Jeff Brame. I chose Jeff's "Sailor Retired" as the winner for the Sailor challenge. Well thought-out details ("me oyl," the nautical decor, the lighthouse, etc.), nicely drawn and colored. I like how grim and drab it is indoors and how bright and cheery it is outside.

Fantastic entries all! I particularly liked Kerrie's "Sailor (mom and child)" and Clifford's "Sailor Dick," after Rick Baker's design. Great work!

And The Winner Is... Jeff Brame!

The winner for the "Bunny" challenge is:

Jeff Brame!

Congratulations to Jeff Brame. I chose Jeffy's "Bunny by JeffyB" as the winner. Welcome back, Jeff! Jeff's dark style brings to mind the most cheery of horror - filled with spookiness, zombies, pop culture, retro cartoons and humor.

I've said it before but let me say it again - the quality of art and the wonderful artists here at Monday Artday constantly amaze me! You are all terrific and inspiring and the reason why this blog is so popular. It's always the hardest thing I do all week to pick a winner. Keep 'em coming, artists!

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.
