I did not realize this challenge existed until I was tagged (Thank you again @Rhea_Asma) but I think this is a very cool idea and because there are so many talented artists here, you can expect I will probably use all 5 of my recommendations.

@FireShepherd has captured the detail in this cat wonderfully and it demanded my attention as I’m sure it did with most of us.

Hi @Rhea_Asma

If you place the @ before the name instead of after, the person you’re naming will be pinged.

34

@ShangZhou0 that’s not fair your paintings are just way too good :rofl:

Oh my goodness! :face_holding_back_tears: Thanks for the thought, @TBs_thename ! I’m quite honored.

Hi @Joseiby_Tapia

Thanks for making a nomination. I fixed it so that the artist is named and the image shows.

The instructions are in the first post at the top of this thread. Be sure to come back to vote in the poll later on!

47

Thanks @Joseiby_Tapia I really appreciate these kind words! I really am flattered.

I love that it feels from another world, and despite it’s super saturated, it works perfectly. I could stare at it for long :smiley:

51

This purrfect cute kitten deserves a bigger audience I believe, therefore I nominate @Elixiah’s Calico Comfort to comfort our feelings:

With Old man 5 @z586t created an admiring work that invites to study how it was made, a wonderful study of brushwork - or strokes of genius :wink: :
