Best of Krita-Artists – March/April 2024 – Nomination Submissions Thread

Welcome to the Featured Artwork submissions thread. This is where Krita-Artists members nominate artwork to appear in the featured row.

How it works

Each month, around the 15th, we’ll post a submission thread. K-A members can make one submission in each monthly thread. Once the deadline for submissions has passed, the poll will open for voting. The four images receiving the most votes will be inducted into the featured artwork row. Winning images will be entered into the Best of Krita-Artists competition at the end of the year.

Best of Krita-Artists – 2024

In January 2025, we will publish a post containing all the winning entries from the previous year. K-A member voting will determine the top ten and these finalists will be awarded a “Best of Krita-Artists – 2024” badge.

How to Submit a Nomination for Monthly Featured Artwork

Tag the artist using their @ name, insert a link to the full-size image and then the link to the original post. You may want to open 2 tabs in your browser as you will need to refer to the original post twice.

Detailed Posting Instructions (click to open)
  1. Open a new reply in this thread and type the @ name of the artist you are nominating.

  2. Go to the artist’s post and click on the image. When the image appears on your screen, right click and copy or save the image link.

  3. Return to the nomination post and press hyperlink or ctrl+k. Paste the URL (optional title is not necessary). Once the link markdown is inserted into the post, add a single ! (exclamation mark) before the [ (the opening square bracket) of the link. It will look something like this:
    ![title](url)

  4. Return to the artist’s post and copy the URL. Paste this URL into your nomination post.

  5. Save/publish the post.

Guidelines

  • Forum members may make one nomination per month.
  • You may not nominate your own work.
  • All artwork published in the Artwork:Finished Artwork category is eligible. The only exception is artwork that is already featured (look for the “featured” tag next to the post title).
  • A poll will be created containing all the nominations. Members may vote for up to four images.
  • The top four images by poll results will be added to the featured row in the gallery.

The featured artwork nomination process is brought to you by Krita-Artists’ Admins and Moderators. We welcome feedback and suggestions. To submit feedback, please create a new topic in the Site Feedback category.

This thread will be open for nominations until 2024-04-10T17:00:00Z.

Fantastic, @rosa.

I’ve had a really hard time deciding again! :grimacing:

I had a shortlist of 5 images - and that’s not including ones already nominated or from the previous month’s shorlist.

I’ve decided to go with this one because it has a lot of strong points including storytelling and mood, drawing and rendering, good use of palette and composition. The elevated angle is interesting and makes good use of atmospheric perspective.

I’m nominating: ‘Snow, forest and girls’ by @Aqao
