What A Fantastic First Week We Have Had!!!!
I must admit that I didn't expect the first week of our contest to be quite so popular but with twelve valid entries I would say that we have gotten off to an amazing start!
The sun has been out in my fair city today which is a very rare thing so I took the time to enjoy it with family. I intended to also include the details of next weeks contest in this post but I have decided that I will make another post tomorrow to launch week two of the contest!
This post is just to announce our winners!
So let's get on with it!! :)
1ST Place and a total prize of 15 SBD goes to @w0olf for his entry
This is a 10 SBD first prize plus 5SBD very generously donated by my good friend @dreemit!!
5 Runner Up Prizes Of 1SBD Go To....
1SBD to @paper-pecado!
1SBD to @aneblueberry!
1SBD to @rawinhabitant!
1SBD to @blackvapor!
1SBD to @krizia!
We also had another very generous donation of 10SBD from @son-of-satire for the entry of his choice which he has decided to award to @veronica-valdeon and thanks to another 5SBD donation by @dreemit that brings Veronica's prize up to 15SBD!!
I will send your prizes to your wallets as soon as I post this so please keep an eye out! :)
I would like to congratulate our winners and thank you all once again for a great start to the contest and hope you will all return next week.
I was especially pleased that @blackvapor was able to have such a great time with his children in taking part and would like to try and increase the number of younger participants in the weeks to come. I was also very pleased with how many extremely talented artists were able and willing to take part but would like to get more people who are new to the art of drawing to take part in future as well so I will have a think about how to attract more interest from both of these groups!!
From the feedback I have received it would appear that everyone has had a good time taking part and have supported the contest and each other by upvoting each others entries. I would hope that some of you have gained new followers as a result of the contest as well! :)
I hope you are all having a wonderful day and look forward to seeing you all for 'Learn To Draw With Friends - Week Two!' :)
Great contest ant
Thank you so much @tonyr! More power to you and congratulations to all the winners!
Wow thanks so much @tonyr and to all the voters! Was really fun to draw with u! And congrats to all the others! Lets make a awesome week 2 together! I'm really looking forward to see more art from u guys! :D
You are most welcome @w0olf!!
Thank you for being such a great contestant and supporting all of the other entries in the way you did and congratulations once again on your win my friend!!
Til next week!! :)
Awesome Tony! You're going to officially be my last vote of the day so I can get my voting power back up (It's still turning out a respectable $9.50!!) I was a little giddy with the newfound money I could add and didn't realize it was having such a major effect on the power which has dropped to 75%. Hopefully it will restore itself overnight. In the meantime, I will resteem this as well :)
Aye things have gotten pretty crazy around here!! :)
Me and Scott were at our mums house for most of the day and didn't realise what had happened til a l;ittle while ago!
Obviously I'm happy about the possibility of making some money here now but even happier that my Being The Change I want To See In The World post will get a good reward and I should really be able to help someone in a bigger way than I would have before! :)
You are always too kind to me dreemit!
I would love to be able to return the favour but my votes are only worth 7 cents! :(
No sad faces! lol! I don't care about your vote's worth Tony, you return the favor by being the magnificent spirit you are! When my brother finally joins (soon since he's actually made a couple of posts and is just being very particular about them) you can help me by resteeming his introduction and also giving him a warm welcome--which I doubt I even had to ask you to do because you are, as I said, magnificent ;)
:) :) It would be my absolute pleasure dreemit! You have done so much for me in my short time here and you are correct, I am indeed magnificent :) ( I think reading @meesterboom's blog is having an effect on my bravado! :)) and so are you!
I will have to work out how to join steemit chat so that we can talk a bit more easily!! :)
Have a fantastic night @dreemit!
Thanks! @tonyr for putting on the contest. Congratulations on a fine job. It was fun. Congrats to all of you who entered!
Thank YOU |@rawinhabitant for being such a fantastic contestant and supporting our other entrants as well as all the resteeming you did of the post!
I sincerely hope you will be joining us next week my friend! :)
