The print is 11″ x 14″ signed and numbered giclee on canvas print, limited to an edition of only 95. All the winner will have to do is have this print framed, how cool is that?

So what do you have to do to win? Just submit a poem inspired by the print. The top 5 entries will be judged by Lori Earley.

The Rules:
•Limit one entry per person
•Anyone can enter, artists, fans, gallery owners, politicians, etc.
•Please limit the poem to no more than 10 lines, we don’t want to drive Lori crazy do we?
•Only original works please. All entries will be previewed by disgruntled English majors, so don’t give them fuel to be angry!

[mute]

From time to time
I stop to think
About the crime
committed by the girl so pink

She cast a spell
with her big beautiful eyes
My sweet Annabelle
How my heart cries.

2 minutes, cut me some slack here.

Really? Sure, why not. I don't think I have a chance in hell.

EDIT: Does this count as the submission?

[virtu]

It does not count.
Go to Creep Machine when you have one ready and submit there.

still waiting for Lori to pick the winner. It should be soon. I hope..

Well, after sending the top 5 entries over to Lori she has chosen one. The winner is Rachel Tribley.
I would like tot hank everyone that entered the contest. Lori said that it was really hard to choose a winner, but she felt the winning entry was the one that best captured the feeling of the painting.

Thanks again to Excellent Virtu for donating the print for the contest.
