The theme, if you so choose to accept, is to use *Della-Stock model stock to create a piece of art (photomanipulation, digital painting, traditional art) in the style of Art Nouveau (if you are sick of Art Nouveau, you can also choose to do something Steampunkish). It doesn't have to be exactly Mucha-esc. Be creative. Be inspired by the old and the new. Extra points will be added if you use any Smashing Pumpkins songs and lyrics for inspiration.

Check back here for more prizes as we go along. We will also have a journal to feature all the submissions as they come in!
Please feel free to donate prizes (anything from journals, to prints, to subs, to original works of art! Anything goes!). Donators can still submit entries and win.
Judges
Entries will be judged fairly. I've judged contests with a few of these judges before and we normally have 5 areas of critique that we give points for and then add up the total points from all judges for the final score.








Thanks for doing this; it is a rad idea for a contest.
