Abstract Silence - November 2011

Journal Entry: Sun Sep 18, 2011, 9:23 AM


WELCOME TO
ABSTRACT SILENCE


Abstract:
:pointr: Existing only in the mind; separated from embodiment
Silence:
:pointr: The absence of sound; stillness.


Dreams:
:pointr: A series of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations occurring involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep.
:pointr: A daydream; a reverie.
:pointr: A state of abstraction; a trance.
:pointr: A wild fancy or hope.
:pointr: A condition or achievement that is longed for; an aspiration.
:pointr: One that is exceptionally gratifying, excellent, or beautiful:

:pointr: We are all about dreams. Dreams haunt us, dreams inspire us. Our group is dedicated to art of the subconscience mind, expressed through dreams and nightmares.

:pointr: Fantasy, Macabre/Horror, & Surreal work is accepted here.

:pointr: Good dreams, bad dreams, twisted dreams, nightmares... No matter the case, we want you to showcase your work here. And in the meantime, make some great friends, see some amazing works of art, and give yourself a place to express yourself.

THE RULES
:pointr: You must be a supporter or dream-like artist, specializing in fantasy, macabre/horror, or surreal art.
:pointr: When applying to join the group you must send a link to one of your dream-like works of art. Also state whether you're a Day-Dreamer (Fantasy Art), Night Dreamer (Surreal Art), or a Nightmare (Macabre/Horror/Dark Art). The link you send is just an example and won't be submitted unless you request it to be upon approval.
:pointr: Once accepted, please put our icon in your journal and add us to your dev watch.
:pointr: I have the right to not submit works that don't fit the topic, and not accept members who don't fit in to the group based on their art styles.
:pointr: Voting is only open to group members so the voting stays fair.
:pointr: I have the right to not accept members if I feel their art doesn't reflect the groups topic. Please do not assume you are a member just because you sent a request to apply. If you do not get an acceptance, I probably didn't feel your art work fit into the group. The same goes with members submitting deviations, some I may feel don't reflect dreams and nightmares, I may not submit.
:pointr: No arguing or giving me a hard time. I work very hard and the last I need is people giving me crap just because I made a mistake or there was a misunderstanding. I AM NOT PERFECT!!! On the other hand, I am very open to advice or opinions. Use your own judgement to what is right or wrong.

SUBMISSION PROCESS
:pointr: When submitting your art work to us, please go to the Newest Deviations folder, click Contribute to this folder and chose whether you are uploading a new or an existing deviation from your own gallery. Upon review the deviations will either be accepted or denied, as per the rules of this group.
:pointr: Please remember the rules of submitting only one deviation per artist per week. Remember to chose your best works that go into the dreams & nightmares topic. Please try to keep track of when you have submitted. Our submission week is from Monday to Sunday. Only members are permitted to submit to the gallery.
</div>

:pointr: Our latest contest IN YOUR WILDEST DREAMS has ended. Due to the fact that there were only three entries, there will be no voting. All three of these deviations will be placed in the contest winners collection, in the order of when they were submitted.  I thank you for your participation.

:pointr: The new contest will be announced soon!

I was trying to get everything back up and running after my computer problems and hoping the extension would allow for more entries. I do apologize for the delay.

This is *meganwayxo from :iconanothercontestgroup:, and I'd like to inform you that we've found and added your contest to our listing! The group also features results and offers prizes so note #AnotherContestGroup if interested in more information.

*missimoinsane does a monthly news article, which contains all current contests each month. You can find these listings in our main journal, “Welcome & Contest Information.” We try to post this information in our poll once the news article is up so our watchers are notified of this – perhaps watch us if you're not already for this and more information.

Note us if the end date to your contest changes or if you'd like another contest featured.

I hope your contest is a success!
