This contest looks very fun, ill try to enter. Just wondering tho, what if you have more than one oxymoron in the same painting? Other than that ill try my best ^^
02 Jun, 2015, 6:59 pm
Certainly a unique prompt! Count me in.
02 Jun, 2015, 7:40 pm
I'll think about it.

@Queen_Blaze:
The only issue I could see with that would be over clutter, but if you can manage the clutter then go for it! Thats actually a quite good idea, oxymorons exerywhere

Is it okay if I do "futuristic ruins"? I've already started.

Re: I found you, wow, I have missed you!!
I'm so sorry, about wanting to leave colors, it's just not fair, how have of my gallery needs tagged or tagged mature. And others on here, get by with so much.
What do you suggest, I do?
btw, the gift you made me, I just found, I love it!
I love your whole Amazing gallery!

no fence but what is oxymoron?
07 Jun, 2015, 3:23 am
@Sorry_Im_Allergic: No

@jazzelisbell:
Oxymoron --> A figure of speech that contradicts itself
"Dry Ocean" --> oceans are wet,the opposite of wet is dry, therefore an ocean cannot be dry, it contradicts itself.
You can make some interesting surreal paintings using oxymorons

Holy cow. I have some great ideas for this.

I SHALL JOIN

I have a question.
Are the results going to be based on how many likes each entry gets, or will you be selecting the winners?
20 Jun, 2015, 2:31 am
@Speedsmasher:
I will be selecting the winners, I will be as fair as possible. I'll be looking for creativity, this includes the idea, composition, quality, detail, oxymoron, and overall final result. Likes have nothing to do with it.
:]
20 Jun, 2015, 3:30 am
Okay. Got it. Thanks!
24 Jun, 2015, 8:18 am

Everyone can join ;)
04 Jul, 2015, 7:16 pm
Can we look at reference on computer? like so long as its not on screen/trace ?
04 Jul, 2015, 8:30 pm
@Percussion:
Well, its supposed to be your own idea, so technically it is not allowed, but I guess an exception could be made if your using an off screen reference just for a texture or shape outline. But the overall object(s) must be original

Oxymoron Paradox??
06 Jul, 2015, 10:24 pm
