WHAT:

An attempt to embody and express the emotion of "Sorrow" through Art in Black and White.


RULES:

- Must be your original new creation intended for this contest.

- Any obvious artistic medium is acceptable.
If there is a category for it on deviantart, then it is allowed.

- Any Visual Artwork must be in Black and White (and any Gray tone in between).
Please do not go crazy on slight "color" because this still must be considered Black and White, if it is not then I will not be able to accept it.

- Any Literature/Prose must incorporate "sorrow", "black" and "white" within the text.

- Maximum of 2 entries per person. If you have entered twice and create something new and want to replace an existing entry, yes, you are allowed.

- If you use any kind of stock, inspiration, references...etc. You must credit in the description.

- The entire point of this subject is too express pain and release it, so please keep it to what you know and not something in which you have never experienced. Bottom line, show me sorrow through your eyes as best you can, I'm sure it'll be beautiful and heartbreaking. That is why I'm leaving this so incredibly open, sorrow... now show me what you can do, show me feeling, bring it like I know you can! (I hope that made sense)

Yay, I entered! :dance:
Then I remembered it would have been a good idea to mention the contest and put a link under the poem. (Excuse me please :blush: I'm new at this)

Anyhow, I've now gone back in and fixed the error :thumbsup:

Thank you for inspiring me.

Hello ) Excuse, to me have sent the letter with translation of this text about contest so proceeding from translation I had questions. Sorry, if I shall repeat - its are difficulties of translation.
So, If I have already sent work, will come to me the return letter with the information about that has passed my work or not? Will be a reference to the loaded works to contests? And who will define winners?

I ll be very grateful for the answer :handshake:
