Name Drop Showdown! [SBD Giveaway]

in art •  7 years ago  (edited)

Show me your favorite Steemit artist for a chance to share with them (50/50) the entire payout of this post! Every entry gets a complimentary upvote, and everyone has an equal chance of winning, as the winner will be chosen at random.

What's the point of this?

I want us to all support each other, and not just ourselves. I want us to actually enjoy the content we consume on Steemit, and to be able to reward the creators with more than just our one tiny vote.

So here's how it works:
1) Find an artist you like (not yourself) copy and paste one of their images in the comments with a link to their recent blog post or profile (For today's contest we'll be focusing on paintings, sketches, anything made by hand, but future posts will showcase photography, graphic art, writing, recipes, and who knows what else)
2) Upvote this post.
3) Resteem this post. (This is optional, but crucial for increasing exposure for the artists and the reward pool)
4) Follow me. (Also optional, but it'll keep you in the loop for future contests)
5) Check out the other cool art in the comments! Follow them, support them, give them a pat on the back for being awesome! (Optional as well, but that is the whole point of this contest. It's not just about the money)

After 7 days, the winner will be chosen at random. They will receive half of the payout, and their artist will receive the other half.

If you choose not to enter, but wish to support the cause, your upvote is still greatly appreciated.

I'm working on leasing some delegation (contact me if you would like to strike a deal), so that I have more to offer each participant. I'm going to wait a few days till my vote is worth $.03 to start voting, but.. if this delegation goes through, it'll be worth about $.33!

Congrats to all the winners from my Cryptokitty giveaways: @ivrmakers, @evileddy, @playfull, @giraffeonskates, @iamredbar, and @gretum, and good luck to everyone!

Thank you @lighteye :)

You are always welcome, @jungwatercolor :)

Love it love it love it!

I nominate @mada, whose talents as an oil painter are world-class. Here is an image from his most recent post, along with a link to that post:

What a cheeky grin! Gee, that @mada is sure a cool guy.

Great contest! My favorite art this week comes from @bella-volen-art

This is the coolest thing ever. You have recruited @bella-volen-art a new fan for life. Here's a link to her post so everyone can learn a little history, and maybe send her a few more love letters <3 https://steemit.com/art/@bella-volen-art/par-avion-original-art-and-history-body-art-collage

Otto Rapp. aka @thermoplastic.
He is amazing... and he seems like a cool guy:)

https://steemit.com/art/@thermoplastic/general-peckerwood-in-purgatory

He sure does seem like a cool guy. His mind must be an awesome place.

I go with https://steemit.com/@reinhard-schmid
One I love and admire a lot, as well as his skills but also his imagination

This is quite a rare treasure! I noticed that you both have an affinity for opalescence. You don't usually see so many colors blending so seamlessly. Beautiful work, both of you :)

Thank you @flaccidfervor :)

I nominate @xanadumedia. Here is an example of his artwork:

...& here is a link to the post in which it appears:

https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@xanadumedia/introduceyourself

Though that had been only @xanadumedia's first post, it contained three impressive works of art--as well some high-quality prose poetry which, though not the subject of this showdown, deserves mention--and gave me the strong impression he has quite a lot ready to share with us in upcoming posts.

I have a lot backed up to post. I plan on posting during the week between 2-3 times. Thank you for your support @riotdog! <3

That is some seriously high quality prose. I resteemed the shit out of that post. I hope my loyal followers become @xanadumedia's loyal followers.

Much appreciation. I look to have content appealing to said followers.

I am nominating one my glitch fam @glitchedmemories. He circuit bends his own visual hardware to produce glitch texturation that is very difficult to find elsewhere in our world. Glitched Memories is a new member of Steemit, but is incredibly skilled at uncovering digital artifacts to share with the world.

Because we both work largely with video, working on Steemit will be difficult. Gifs of our content reduces the FPS and DTube and Youtube are not designed to facilitate video art by itself. That suggests that our paradigm should shift in order to stay competative.

If it's any consolation, as an image, it still appears to be moving. This would make such a cool jacket patch. Good luck to both of you with working out those intricacies. You're gonna go far, kids.

I have a slightly different look when I look at an artist. I love someone who can draw with his pen. It feels more natural and original to me and that is why am nominating @apiprincz
Here is one of his recent link to his recent work

This is what my dreams are made of.

Thanks for posting the image @flaccidfervor couldn’t get the image to link to save my life! <3

Aw, thanks so much for nominating me, @jthiessen! It's wonderful to know that people are actually following my work!

Thanks for the initiative and considering me for the contest @flaccidfervour. There's some great artwork here :)

How about this one by @montinaart ?

"BUT IT LOOKS SO COOL!."

Still upvotable.

Oh I relate to this hard. This is how I feel most days. Thank you @nxtblg :)

Hey, glad to. Thanks for letting @montinaart know on her own thread.

[ Yes, I checked. :) ]

That contrast has me feeling feelings!

Yessss! This would look so good in my house. I think this has to be my personal favorite so far. Thank you @augustpratama!

@kaylinart is who I nominate!

OK, but I guess mine is sorted out?

You're good. Officially entered :)

I like the idea of how a lot of steemians come up with ideas to help. There's a lot to choose from it's overwhelming :)

You can do it! I would also be glad to suggest any nominations. The only trouble is that I refuse to enter in my own contest, as much as I've been itching to let some of my fav artists in on this.
