I don't really like FB competitions where prizewinners are those with most friends who can generate lots of LIKES.
However, Jackson's announced a FB coloured pencil competition recently where they will select the winner of the main prize and then 5 smaller awards will be based on the people's choice/votes ... so I entered Senor Molina (Mr Windmill) - the homeless man who lives near a windmill in Corralejo/Fuerteventura. I'm pleased to say that he has been shortlisted along with 42 others and voting runs till 26 November
Although it is described as a coloured pencil competition, you will see some pastel entries which I was surprised about but it appears they have classed pastel pencils and coloured pencils
If you'd like to vote for Senor Molina (or any other picture of course) here's a link to the relevant page. Entries are on 2 pages and mine is on the second page so you need to scroll down and click on 2/Next
You need to have a FB account to vote
Jackson's Coloured Pencil Competition . Shortlisted entries

ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised it was short listed, it's an excellent piece of work!
ReplyDeleteGreat drawing :) And good luck in the competition :)
ReplyDeleteThank you ladies. I'd far rather enter competitions that are juried (rather than these FB LIKES ones) but I guess you have to move with the times. Thanks for your support. Suex
ReplyDeleteIt really isn't fair to 'judge' contests like this but Jackson's just wants to generate more traffic/business. Seems to me to be a very artificial thing to do but -----.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're a huge winner, Sue!
Have had trouble getting a post to go through here lately so hope this one will post!
