The first of many art contests begin today, here at tinavaziri.com.

Your Objective:
- Print or Save the image
- You have one week to color it in any way that you would like (You can use any method or media; color pencils, photoshop, MSPaint, photo collage, etc), add your own flare
- Post your completed artwork in the comments
- The most creative image (extra points added for cuteness and humor), as judged by David Poe, will win a Tina Vaziri original!
- Everyone should give this a shot! The submissions will be judged on their ideas not technical skill.
The prize for this contest is an 11″x17″ acrylic and color pencil painting on bristol board.

The winner will be contacted by email and the artwork will be shipped to them after their address is provided.

Miss A Says:
oooh great! So when you say colour - do you actually mean you want me to get out my pencils, or can one actually use photoshop etc to complete the competition?

What a cool idea. I just wish I was semi-artistically inclined. I’d love to see the submissions though!

So can my boys enter? They’d totally blow the creativity part out of the water and Shawners is fascinated with your drawings : ) .

okay, I have no talent of any kind at all, but I will give it a shot just because of the awesome prize! (and also going to print it out for my boys to color just because the drawing is so cute!)

They were so excited to do this!! Shawners has been bugging me nonstop to put it up here since I printed it out yesterday and he colored it right away that evening.

Pink Sun Drops Says:
So I explained that you were looking for creativity not artistic talent and Shawners decided he wanted to do another one that was more creative, so here ya go: (he is so loving this!)

Does anyone know how to colour using Macs?
March 10th, 2008 at 10:23 pm -
Tina Says:
PP, there’s no default art program that comes with Macs like the MSPaint for Windows. There are a lot of free ones you can download though: http://paintbrush.en.softonic.com/mac
