Winterset, Iowa Where Else?

So if you have to go to Iowa to paint something in the DECEMBER Paint Off, why not WINTERSET.  Sounds very Holiday like indeed.  I don't know if that's what Carol Schiff had in mind when she found this little white house or if it's a coincidence, but I'm going with it!

Digital painting is ok? I understand the rules state "all mediums" but I don't trust the rules

Kay Zahn said...

ANY medium, even digital if your reference is from Google Street View, any painting medium is fine. Thanks for asking. Kay

Julien Menet said...

Thanks for your answer and thanks for being open-minded. ( the whole digital art is not art thing... you know )

My submission should arrive soon :-)

Kay Zahn said...

Who am I to tell anyone what their art is ;) That being said, if someone cuts and pastes, the Voters and Judges will share their opinions I suppose. If one is actually Painting digitally . . well . . I've tried to paint with digital tools, it's not easy. I'm intrigued by it all.

Well THAT (your submission) is just wonderful. I like it a lot. I approved it for the contest, and I'll post it to the blog sometime tomorrow, when I get a chance to share it properly. Thanks. Kay

Thank you very much Kay. I believe art should not be judged by its creation process but simply by the final picture.

See you
Julien

Please do not share it yet, i just sent you a clearer, better resolution of it. Right in your mailbox.
Would be great if you could replace it, I sent the wrong file by mistake (need more sleep )
