MARTINI / COSMETIC is ready 4 U Votes’s!

  votingbooth
Welcome back to the only art challenge on the interwebs that takes pride in misspelling it’s name in a most ridiculous way.  Two U’s?  You must be crazy!  That’s right, The Random Words Art Challuunge!  Challuunge pronounced with a long oooo… say it with me now, ChallUUnge!  You got it!  There’s a long drawn out story behind the spelling that involves a monkey with three tails and a savory mac’n’cheese dish with sushi… but that story’s for another day… 

Thanks to everyone that tossed in this week!  If it weren’t for you this blog would be mighty mighty boring, what with my random needless rantings about random things and such forth…

Ok challuungers, it’s that time to reveal next week’s words, and Wurm has chosen to ask anyone and everyone willing to participate to base their art on these words:
SELF / PORTRAIT

This was a hit a few years back when we had these words, so it might be kinda cool to see how our artists view themselves with a self portrait… or whatever you interpret these words as would be fine.  Rememeber, any and all forms of creativity are accepted; sculpting, digital drawing, photography, stories, poems, sonnets, haikus, quickdry cement sculptures, toilet paper roll collages… anything!  Just shoot over a jpg of your submission and vwalah!  You are in the challUUnge!

…………………………………………..

Alright, enough with the letters mashed together to form words that make up sentences… On to this week’s challuunge for:
MARTINI / COSMETIC
Click em to see em grow!
Vote at the end, don’tchaknow!
