WOW!! what a week! so many great pieces of art posted! I want to thank Denise for asking me to participate! This is a very tough set of pieces to pick winners from, they are all very good! I based my decisions on the use of traditional elements, creativeness, application of some of my suggestions and lastly, the pieces that just plain look good to ME:eek:. Beside each winner, I have included a link to that particular thread, I hope that they all work!
thanks so much for your service Dan and a big congrats to all the winners.
Your #1 choice was also my #1, besides Jackie's talent, I think this image shows
what "inspiration" can do to one's work....sorry for the loss Jackie,
but you were inspired and it has shown through.
well done all, and thank you Dan for your compliment

Thank you Dan for taking time to guide us through this week. Also, congratulation to all the winners. The OOTB has been a fun time for me. Thanks to all who contributed.
Dan, big thanks for your time and expertise this past week. The entries were awesome and I think we all learned a lot from you. Big congrats to all the winners!
Thanks Dan for the effort. I agree it was a hard week to be a judge. I appreciate the mention, as I was just trying something totally new to me :confused:, as in the other events the past few weeks.
I also appreciate the links, as it is not always easy to find the specific winning entries :eek:. I had missed a few during the week and that made it easy to find and view them :cool:.
Thanks again for your efforts and your help for all. ;)
I too would like to thank Dan for his efforts. This weeks theme was just full of incredible images. The best part for me was that I gained new found knowledge by participating. Can't beat that!!!
Thanks to Dan for judging. Another fun theme. Making the image "Death" was very cathartic for me and it goes to show how powerful an image can be to me in expressing words. Thanks to all, and Denise for coming up with some great themes. I am just checking in from San Francisco and this was a very pleasant surprise. Congrats also to Cheryl and Dave too!
