I like the idea of this contest alot. I look forward to the other entries. Have fun judging rainwalker
what a lovely name.
-
possibly i will enter a piece into this contest seeing as though i am surrounded here by works of my own created art. spill ink and twist me into the crazy shape of love...
-
I love steam trains and I have an unfinished poem that might be a word-reflection of the Monet-painting. Does the poem have to rhyme...? Hope you get many wonderful entries.

I think that this is a brilliant idea for a contest, however "art" to me is not just a picture so I would be hard pushed to find the right one. Neverthe less I am going to give this my best shot because it is different. Well done rainwalker.
-
this is very interesting, although i'm not a very good writer of poems. i may actually consider being brave enough to enter.
-
a good one! i was thinking of writing about "art" myself..
i hope i can come up with something substantial..
good luck and have fun! -
art encompasses so much
i've bookmarked this just in case... my muse is not dependable and writes when it pleases and seldom 'on demand'.
you will surely get lots of super entries
-
I'm surprised there arent more entries in this contest, it's to bad.
-
Same here! Poets are artists! Hurry up people
-
Hmmm...has the contest ended, or are you still judging...these new updates are very confusing.
-
thanks for hosting and gratz to the winners, this was fun.
-
