Welcome one and all!
And welcome to NuPlaza's second Art Competition!
The theme for this competition will be: Summer
I dont see there being enough entries for each category to have their own winners, so you will get to choose from them all and find one winnner from all the entries!
Everyone will get to vote! Once we reach the deadline, I will create a poll and you can vote on your favourite entry! Even you own ;)
Deadline October 1st! And you can have 2 entries!
Rules:
- 2 entries per person (change of rule!)
- It can be anything you consider art. Drawing, Photo, Poem, Short Story and so on, as long as it is made by you.
- It HAS to be YOUR own work, no stealing!
- Post your contribution in this thread. Please make a note that it is an entry!
- Feel free to ask questions in here, I will clean it up when it comes time to vote

So this is I suppose a weird entry, but it's my favourite piece of art I did over the summer mostly at a Furry Camp lol (and I now am plotting where it will hang in my house since it didn't sell that the art show I put it into - two other paintings of mine did) Gouache, watercolor, gold leaf, silverleaf paint, and black india ink
The Wolf and the Summer Moon

Entry 1. Category: Poetry.
The Search for an Endless Summer
I grew up in the country
Learned to drive in the city
Where gasoline hung hot in the air like a permanent perfume,
Made me long for a lakeshore view.
And whither then? I cannot say...
