Painting Rainbows,
Balloons and Unicorns - Photo Contest 2005
Way back in one of the very first contest we covered this subject (in 2002). We have tossed all of the old photos and are now going to start from the beginning. We are looking for cheek or full face designs (no body painting for this contest). Simple designs on the body, like those painted on an arm are acceptable. What we are not accepting is large designs like those painted on someone's back. We want designs that are more considered mainstream for the typical painting environment. You contribution must stick with any one of the three noted themes. These three topics all are common requests by children. We all have seen duplications of the unicorn design in the popular Creative Face Painting Book. If you send in a similar design it MUST CONTAIN NOTED DIFFERENCES or it will be rejected. PLEASE try to be CREATIVE here. Also do not think you can send in three little balloons on the cheek and it be accepted. You need to be more creative than that. Also... we will limit the single unicorn head painted on the cheek to a count of five, no more than that. We want to see some fresh new ideas. All other guidelines as found at http://www.snazaroo.us/faqphotos.htm apply. First, second and third place winners will receive certificates of accomplishment. We will hold this contest open until we receive 30 photos. Contest closed June 2005.
