Description I am FINALLY done with this as far I can tell now, unless anyone has any suggestions

Here is my contest entry for the Kylie Minogue Aphrodite Art Competition, I could REALLY use everyone's votes, please if you feel like helping someone out I put an ungodly amount of time into this drawing, and I really hope it shows. PLEASE VOTE FOR ME HERE if you feel like making my dreams come true

I've loved Kylie Minogue for years now and I'm very excited she is getting some buzz in the US again. I would much rather hear Kylie's positive uplifting dance music on the radio than Lady Gaga's pretentious half assed attempts at "artistic integrity" like Alejandro (don't get me started on it, I don't hate Gaga or anything, just that dreadful song) Anyway in a lot of ways Kylie is like Aphrodite, she preaches love and happiness and romance, and she is impossibly beautuful especially for a 42 year old cancer survivor

Really? Was it hard? But more importantly, was it fun to draw / color?

It was hard but now I am taking a class on photoshop in school and I learned I was doing it the hardest way possible haha. It was fun though to see the drawing come to life from pencils to inks to colors!

But that's good! Because your drawing is very divineee! Seriously... I honestly think now that she should've used the birth of Venus idea, now.. Lol.

Very true. I also love Closer even though people might think it's too different to be a radio single. I love the whole album as well. I can't wait to see her on tour!!!

But Yes! Me too! But I wish she could come to the states.......

Great job! I voted 10 stars.

I'm kind of excited she's getting more NA buzz too. It'd be nice to see her have another 'Fever' effect over here.

Here's hoping she at least sees our efforts.

Thanks man, I did the same for yours

I know, I don't care if I win even though that would be amazing, I would just hope that in a perfect world Kylie would take a look at some of our entries and that they would at least make her smile

And I am really hoping Aphrodite is like another "Fever" over here, the album's definitely deserving of it!

I have my work cut out for me with your entry though!!!

*blush* Thanks! I kinda feel a little bummed because I don't know how to get votes, tried Facebook and SayHey, but I don't care any longer, I'm happy with the projects I'm doing at the moment.

I read something on sayhey about how people were voting down potential winners to boost their own rating, I have no idea but we all know who spent time and effort on their projects and who didn't haha

Enydimon In reply to RobertDanielRyan [2010-07-24 19:18:26 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, some guy from Brazil was caught in the act of getting all his friends to vote people down and rate him up. It was really lame.

I guess they're just jealous. It would explain why some of the mediocre submissions are highly rated right now.

Was it that stupid AFROdite drawing that the guy was whoring around all over the place?

Enydimon In reply to RobertDanielRyan [2010-07-24 20:52:53 +0000 UTC]

Nah, it was the one where they took the Aphrodite cover, gave it a blue background and slapped text on it. The AFROdite one kind of annoys me, though. I figure they can't keep up the voting for that long anyway and quality will win over.

I kind of wish they didn't make it such a popularity contest.

RobertDanielRyan In reply to Enydimon [2010-07-24 21:00:17 +0000 UTC]

I am sure the AFRO one took him plenty of time and I honestly thought it was funny at first, but all the incessant whoring of it all over the sayhey forums is getting on my nerves as well. At least that other one was taken out of the competition, right?

Enydimon In reply to RobertDanielRyan [2010-07-24 21:11:56 +0000 UTC]

Yeah true. I'm sure he spent a great deal on it, and it's not nearly as bad as some of the others. I just don't like how this promotes whoring out.

Haha, I advertised a little bit too. We're told specifically to do it... but I just don't know if I have it in me to do much more of it.

How come? Your entry is really good, I love the colors you did and how graceful it looks with everything blowing in the wind and such. It is very much Kylie
