      Hi Guys!
      Finally! I finished my illustration of isolation...even though this are difficult times, I think we can use this isolation to think, meditate, improve ourselves...be within us. BTW, I've seen amazing work so far and I'm excited to see the rest.

                    @Tom-Shannon love this. Pencil shading, colors, mood - spot on. And we can all empathize with that ghost

                      Hello everyone, this is my first post in the forum, first contest submission and first photoshop drawing. It's so nice to see such a supporting and uplifting community. I'm taking a few classes on SVSlearn and hope to engage more with the forum soon. Congrats everyone for the amazing job, it's so inspiring to see your drawings! Jana Zurkova_SVS_Isolation.jpg

                          There are many things good and bad about isolation, some important and some trivial.

                              Can I ask how the top 16 are chosen? Are they just picked out by the judges (Will/Jake) or is it based on votes, etc?

                                @carrieannebrown they are picked by the judges. They choose based on how well the the piece fits the prompt, composition, rendering, and of course, what they like. The final winners are chosen by votes squared off against each other in a bracket ( like “The Sweet 16”.) That’s my understanding. I hope it helps.

                                  @JennyJones yes, thank you! I was just wondering about whether upvotes made a difference or if it was solely down to the judges

                                    Hi. A few times now, near the end of the month I’d be like: okay next prompt I will definitely participate - thinking my first entry here should be perfect, and I’d need that full month to finish. Note to self: stop whining, start shining. 😁 #finishednotperfect

                                    Here’s my take on isolation - a blissful voluntary one.

                                    4797EE5C-60F9-4414-B395-DEB9B3F51F63.jpeg

                                      Isolation doesn't mean you can't visit magical, fantastical places, right?

                                        Here is my tribute to Andrew Wyeth and his love of isolation in his pictures. With a kidlit flair.

                                          Hi Everyone! Here is my entry for isolation.

                                          Our cat likes to meow at the wildlife he'll never be able to reach.
