Gang!

A month later than the last year, but still on time, ladies and gentleman, after last years success when we received 116 graphics (proudly displayed on our Facebook page), we proudly announce

Graphics-Illustrations

Summer 2010 Competition

Yes, the competition is back. So, of you remotely like graphics or visual arts, you are invited to participate!

So, what’s the competition all about?

The competition is all about creating graphics with a little help of certain Photoshop brushes (no need to use Photoshop though, you can convert brushes to png with abr viewer and make your graphic in any application).

The idea is to express yourself, your thoughts, emotions or you can just make a banner for your site or business. You can make a graphics for mug, or t-shirt or apparel. Sticker for your car, or your motorcycle and bicycle helmet. Whatever you find interesting, possibilities are unlimited. Whatever it is – we want to see it :)

Also, for more inspiration feel free to visit our Facebook page and browse through last years submissions ->

I hear you ask:

Well, for this year we prepared three awards.

OK. I think I covered just about any question you might have, but if I missed something, please let me know by leaving a comment or sending me an email (silvia at graphics-illustrations.com).

I hope you will enjoy the competition. I will make sure to put all works (that comply with the rules) on Graphics-Illustrations.Com Facebook page and to the Graphics-Illustrations.Com Summer 2010 Competition Facebook Photo album.
