First off, a big congratulations to March's Stock Challenge winner, for his entry "Inside the Drawing"



He's won a feature here with us, as well as in my personal journal, and a points prize! Thanks for the wonderful entry! And now I treat you to some of TCosbyJr's work! Enjoy! <3



And now it's time for April's Monthly Feature! These selected works will be displayed for the rest of this month in our gallery's Featured folder. Remember, it's not about being the best, but about challenging yourself and creating work you're proud of! We show the work of people you comment, participate in critique night, seek help when they need it, or just post lots of work! Be active, be creative, and most importantly be who you are and you'll end up featured! As our group continues to grow, so will our monthly features! <3

April's Stock Challenge is now on! Entries are due in by April 30th. Please submit them to the "Monthly Stock Challenge" folder. You can submit one entry per image but you can only win once a month! Winners will be given both a group feature and a personal feature as well as a points prize!
Submissions to the challenge folder are automatically accepted. The three images below are the stock images for this month's challenge. Get creative!! I'd love to see what you all do for them! Also, if you have any suggestions for stock images for next month, note the group and let us know! ^~^



In case anyone missed out on these, here are two tutorials for helping you clean up your images.
