Scavenger Hunt (A Portrait Party Contest)

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

the first portrait party contest went so well. i'm excited to offer another one.

i will trade portraits with whoever wins the following portrait party scavenger hunt.

contestants must complete a portrait swap with the following subjects:

a parent
a child
a sibling
a significant other
an old friend
a peer
a teacher
a hero
a stranger
an enemy
here are the details:

1. a portrait swap means that the contestant draws a subject and the subject draws the contestant. swaps won't be counted until BOTH portraits are submitted to the site. click here to share your portraits.

2. to be counted towards the scavenger hunt, be sure to include a sentence or two that explains who the subject is: a parent, a child, a sibling, et cetera.

3. i will trade portraits with the first person to complete all ten swaps. to take full advantage of the upcoming holidays, the deadline for this contest will be January 1, 2008. if no one completes all ten swaps, i will trade portraits with the person who collects the most swaps before the deadline.

4. when the winner is announced, i will contact you about trading portraits. when our swap is complete, i will frame my portrait of you (like this) and mail it to your favorite address.

if you have questions, just let me know.
