Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on February 29, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 150, Bronze: 75, Honorable mention: 6 people
  • Final notes:
    My apologies on this nothing has changed except I needed to add another honorable winner and I had them listed on the final notes but didn't have enough winners calculated.

    Everyone did an amazing job with this contest. I was absolutely elated with the work put forth on these entries and just how they made me feel as I read them. I'm very happy with the results and can't wait to have another picture inspired prompt but I must say since this one was more difficult to choose the entries I will now do 15 poets or less from now on. Anyways, Thank you all so much for your entries and without further adieu

    Gold is awarded to
    "a reassurance-of beauty"

    Silver is awarded to
    "Valeria without Vesture"

    Bronze is awarded to
    "Within An Artists Hand"

    Honorable winners in no particular order

    "She's beautiful"

    "Paint Me Beautiful" - acrostic

    "Paint me beautiful"

    "Monochromatic"

    "Penetrating"

    I Look forward to reading your entries in the next contest
    Much Love and Many Blessings~
    Happy Leap year!

    The picture

    Reminds me of Helen Hunt in the movie with Jack Nicholson...the name of which escapes me at this moment. Good luck!

      It was well deserving
