I stumbled upon this thing called the 100 Themes Challenge, which is a group that has 5 "variations" or lists of words and phrases that act as prompts to the artist's work.
I have decided to take part because I like challenges and I have a couple of art shows to get ready for in the fall. The idea of having 100 pieces ready to divide into two galleries and a weekend show is very appealing. But I really want to stick to my realism-guns, which means I need to spend about 8-20 hours on each of them, or basically, I got to crank one out each day or so. Granted, I know some will take longer than others, and that is okay. There's no time limit on this challenge and I don't have to have 100 pieces for the upcoming shows, though that would be nice. I have other work already available, anyway, as long as they are not sold beforehand.
So any way, here's a list of the variation I am doing and the completed work, thus far!

It's really easy- just leave a comment to this blog guessing which of the remaining themes I will work on next! If you guess the correct one or come closer to it then anyone else does in the time it takes me to complete the artwork, then I will feature your artwork in the next update!
In the case of a tie, I will feature all winners!
Then the competition begins again!
SPECIAL TIP: If you guess the same theme over and over, you will eventually win!
Well, the fourth edition to the 100 Themes Challenge has been posted, and therefore, it is time to select a winner...who came closest to the picking "Gone"? Here are the results:
picked "Flower" 100-31= 69
picked "Two Roads" 100-44 = 56
picked "Breaking The Rules" 100-50 = 50
Well, everyone got closer...but only one can win! That means =Hydrolicious is the winner for this round for guessing closer than anyone else (which is funny, because I realized she accidentally guessed twice, but in either case, both guesses were the closest out of all of them)! Here's some of her work!
Alright everyone, we need more guesses, or this is gonna be a pretty lame feature competition. Don't be greedy! Invite others to guess and get featured! But you can win again! So keep guessing!
