Deadline is past now, sorry. See the results here.

Domai Art Contest Two
Deadline 28 April 2010

After countless requests, We announce the second Simple Nudes Art Contest. (The first one is here.) It is still our intention to stimulate the art world to celebrate the beauty of woman like it should be celebrated.

Too often when nudity enters art, it becomes either all about sexuality, or it acquires some other weird characteristics to achieve "shock value". We feel that art is first and last about beauty, so what better subject for it than the most beautiful creation there is: woman.

I am judging the contest personally (and subjectively!), and I look forward to seeing what you can do.
(Artists who likes comics can also look at my site strip-strip.)

Please read the rules carefully!
