The PaigeeDraw community is 10,000 strong and growing on  facebook!    A huge thank-you to all members!   PaigeeDraw is quickly becoming the place for people to learn how to draw!

In the last week Paigee announced her first contest!
Details:
Paige’s application has been a great hit on iTunes! Paigeedraw and PaigeeDraw Christmas hit #1 and #2 in educational apps the second day it was uploaded.  Over 10,000 people from across the world have downloaded the app! So far, the feedback has been great! I'm so happy that my tutorials have been so helpful!
So, here is the contest:
I would like YOU to send in pictures you have created from my artwork, either through my application, or characters I have created outside of my application.

Rules:
1. Art MUST be based off of my work, either from my application or my characters outside of the application.
2. Must be done traditionally! My application is all about working with traditional media, I would like you to do the same for this contest!
3. No tracing, stealing or using images not created specifically for this contest. (kind of a no brainer, but needed to be mentioned, ha.)
4. Maximum 2 images can be submitted to the contest, you may ask to change your submission to something else, but please clarify what images you want to be judged.  However only one image can win.
5. MUST BE COLOURED. Background is optional (and encouraged. c: ) but colour is required.

All of these characters can be found in my gallery most in “Original Characters” folder.   Their outfits tend to change a lot (due to the fact that I like giving them many outfits c: ) so don't worry about giving them their "real" outfit!
DEADLINE:
Contest ends at 11:59pm PST, February 28th 2011.
