There's gotta be some budding artists in the hive...

Edit: Maybe we could take the 12 most popular images to make our own GRM Calendars...?

In! I designed the art for a Memorial Hillclimb shirt last year.

In. Can we have separate categories for fine art and photography?

In reply to Appleseed :

I double Appleseed's idea. I paint, and I have done a lot of photography too. Common to art shows in my area is that all entries need to be recent, less than 1 year old. None of my flat work is that new, alas!

Well, I didn't have anything specific in mind, but it seems to me this could devolve into way too many classifications pretty fast.  I'd think two primary divisions (Graphic Art or "Photography") and then perhaps by status (Amateur/Professional) might be a good place to start.  

Tom, Margie, is this something in which GRM might be interested in sponsoring/judging?

 

I'd like to see the examples of some work, as I'd definitely consider comissioning some work.

I love this idea and I'm all for it.  The calendar idea is awesome too!  I don't think there needs to be a time frame of when it was made, this is informal and if you're proud of something you created, then show it off!  If you feel like making something newer?  Go for it.

I will say to those that are going to post your art, I would make sure to water mark or protect them somehow to avoid them being stolen and used by someone else.  I'm not saying anyone here would do that, but it is a public website and other people's art is routinely nabbed for cheap knock-off shirts, etc. and they never get credit or compensated.

With that out of the way, lets see some of your artwork!

Yeah. I have things. I'm in.

Edit: I'm totally fine with photography,  but the title made me think of painting/digital artwork. 

Edit #2: Oh, my wife reminded me that we designed two t-shirts for a local car club also.
