Thank you! So that’s what they’re called! I’ve been searching “two people horse costume” the whole time!

OMG I see what you meant now when you said it was missing too many things before! Haha! It’s indeed a completely different piece now that you put everything you wanted in it. Great job! :grin:

The first grey concept was OK but then it went sideways. I suddenly got bored of painting and had no inspiration at all. I lost the will to paint and even got uncomfortable thinking of it. I guess it’s a natural phase that will pass. I can go picking mushrooms instead, it’s relaxing and recreational. Regular edible mushrooms not the “one with the universe” shrooms. :sweat_smile:

To me, this piece has a professional feel to it. The composition, balance, colors, everything looks complete to me. Like something you’d see on a book or magazine cover. Beautifully done! :star_struck

Thanks so much Elixiah! I’ve always tried to be as polished and precise as possible in my art. If only I’d concentrate on marketing my art as well I would be very professional!:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I really tried but it was just too much in the end… :weary:

I’ll just have to tidy it up later. So… tired… :expressionless:

Thanks! So is yours! :slightly_smiling_face: :+1:

I think I’m mostly happy with it, but also trying not to focus on all the things I want to improve… :thinking:

Well done everyone who did a piece. I thought the participation would be higher, but at least the standard is good!

Congratulations @Elixiah and @Scio – You tied for first place! Would you like to jointly come up with the challenge for next month?

And congrats to all the artists who submitted their work.

Yay! :raised_hands: Congratulations everyone, and especially @Elixiah, that chrome finish is really something :sparkles:

May I start with a partial prompt suggestion? I was thinking of something glow-in-the-dark for the prompt. You know, like glowing jellyfish or neon cityscapes or magic spells, or a bonfire, anything glowy… Does this work?

Wonderful! Let’s wait for @Elixiah to chime in and see what we end up with!

Congratulations @Elixiah and @Scio - I really liked both your pieces! :partying_face: :beers:

By the way - does anyone understand how the percentages relate to the vote count?

The total of percentages adds up to 181, so I’m guessing if everyone used both votes it would be 200?! :thinking:

Wonderful works of art and ideas. Congrats!
I only used one vote in the July challenge. I didn’t know I was supposed to vote for two and I have a real problem of reading instructions. I guess I’m not alone. YAY! :grin:
