This evening marked the end of my Gara-art contest.

At 10:10, I put the names of the entrants (all three )- written on small, evenly folded post-its- into a jar, shook 'em well, and then had my lovely assistant (my nearly-asleep wife) reach in and pull the winner.

The three entrants were scottygee, ionz149, and rhinomilk. All three did a bang-up, top-notch job on their pieces, and they will all be displayed proudly in my home- guys, thank you so much for your time and talents! The winner gets a MIB G-1 Atelier Garamon kit, but all three of you* are going to receive a cool little sumpn' sumpn' extra in the mail, soon!

Innyhoo, the winner- with a beautifully colorful pointilist take on Garamon- is scottygee!

Scott, your kit (and your sumpn' sumpn') will ship out within the week!
CONGRATS, brosef!

I will post pics of all the entries in this thread ASAP- definitely by mid-morning on Sunday!


Cheers,
Mike

*And you too, abe- didn't get your entry in time for the drawing, but you've got somethin' comin', man!

congrats scottygee!

woot!!

Thanks, Mike! fun contest and great subject matter!

Looking forward to seeing the pics!

The entries!

Terrific piece by rhinomilk:


...and rm also did this great sketch of Garamon on the envelope:


ionz49 sent this beauty...very creepy and enigmatic:


And the entry by our winner, a sweet take on Garamon by Mr. scottygee- and let me say that the pic does not at all do the charm of this piece justice, as there's a TON of color- pink, red, orange, purple- that my craptastic camera did not pick up:


Thanks again for participating in the contest, guys!
