The Best of 2023 submissions are open!!!! 1 1

I didn't have any problems selecting fives entries for this year's competition . . . as I only bought five pieces of OA this past year (four in December), all of which were Movie Poster paintings.

Only problem I'm having is finding anything I can muster up any enthusiasm for in the Sketch Cover/Commissions and Mystery Sketch categories which are proving of little or no interest to me, personally (sorry, it just ain't my 'thang') . . .

That makes sense, since those works are inherently "quickies" compared to a published cover, a DPS, a commissioned painting, etc. That's why they can only be judged against each other.

 

It would be nice if we could leave comments on the pieces when we're voting on them. Instead, I have to open a second tab and go to that same piece on the owner's CAF gallery to "like" and comment.

VOTING IS OPEN! I worked my way through each of the categories and got all of my votes in, congrats to all the owners of these fine pieces, there were a lot of gems posted.

I voted on all categories last night and some were very hard to narrow to 5 choices as there were many excellent pieces in a couple of categories.
