Today I'm looking at nominations for 3 awards relating to generating art
- The Showcase Shield (replaces "The Painting H5N1 Day Stickability Shield")
- The Best Art Blog Project Virtual Challenge Cup
- The Best Art Society Blog Prize
The Showcase Shield
Producing "a ikon a day" is no longer the phenomenon it was when I created The Painting H5N1 Day Stickability Shield in 2006 (see Blogging Art inward 2006 - The Making H5N1 Mark Awards).
Consequently I've decided to alter the honour to i which celebrates the regular showcasing of adept character art, either the artists ain travel and/or that of other artists they like.
Showcasing inward this context is emphatically non virtually taking an artwork as well as putting it on your blog. It has to live virtually providing a review of the travel (i.e. compliance amongst "fair use" copyright exemption)

Sketching inward Nature - Winner of The Best Art Blog Project Virtual Challenge Cup 2012 |
Past winners include:
- 2012 Sketching inward Nature started inward 2009, has developed a linked site on Flickr (with 748 members) where they oft position hereafter weblog correspondents, has grown its correspondent base of operations equally a consequence (by invitation only) as well as every calendar week it generates betwixt five as well as 10 posts. Bottom line of piece of job this is a weblog which has made a commitment to beingness both on subject as well as sustainable!
- 2011 The Help Nippon Challenge Auction organised on the Daily Paintworks site. The challenge was created past times Keiko Tanabe as well as David Marine of Daily Paintworks hosted it on the Daily Paintworks website. It involved a lot of fine art bloggers contributing artwork to heighten funds via an auction to tending those affected past times the Tsunami inward Japan.
- 2010 The Virtual Paintout by Bill Guffey has succeeded inward attracting a large expose of participants every calendar month - as well as the exercise goodness is that yous tin run into all the pictures on the weblog as well as that makes it real slowly for non-participants to empathise the projection as well as run into its results. I too similar the agency that it shows people that they tin uncovering places to travel as well as pigment plein air using Google Street View as well as consequently its impact is non merely express to this blog!
- 2009 Urban Sketchers - has developed as well as travel a landmark fine art weblog during the lastly 12 months.
- 2008 Different Strokes from Different Folks - a good idea out projection which too involves Karin Jurick inward providing tutorials as well as guidance to participants how to amend their art. Primarily this has been virtually encouraging people to run into that using photos equally references call for non involve copying - that making choices, using your imagination as well as interpreting a photograph are skills which are too important.
- 2007 the International Sketchcrawl drawing marathons - a projection which I bring participated inward which is global as well as involves lots of people, a lot of whom are bloggers.
- 2006 shared by:
- the Crackskull Bob Self-Portrait Marathon - a novel blogging projection which generated 390 entries overall from those participating as well as a stunning grade of creativity

The Best Art Society Blog Prize 2013 This prize is for the Art Society Blog which demonstrates - inward both text as well as images - how best to

This is a problematical award. It was introduced inward 2011.
- Art Society Blogs bring been deadening to larn off the Earth despite offering the range for a beingness an online newsletter virtually the activities of an fine art club as well as its creative mortal members.
- In 2011, the corner seemed to bring been turned amongst to a greater extent than as well as to a greater extent than blogs past times fine art societies.
- Unfortunately, the success of Art Society blogs is real oft hugely subject on the commitment, fourth dimension as well as calibre of the blogmaster. It's real misfortunate to tape that inward Oct this tear, the blogmaster for lastly year's winner - Closure Of This ROI Blog inward October. I have to tell I uncovering this real surprising. (Is there really nobody else inside or allied to the ROI who tin hold it?)
So it remains to live seen whether this volition live an honour which I tin plough over this year.
These are my criteria for the characteristics of a adept fine art club blog:
- blog posts are timely eg post virtually the exhibition inward adept fourth dimension for people to adapt to visit!
- blog posts are useful eg brand certain yous include plenty data for people to uncovering the society's activities (don't assume "everybody knows")
- images are real important - as well as should live included whenever possible as well as relevant. An fine art club weblog without images says something virtually how of import they actually are! This was the primary argue why fine art club blogs were NOT shortlisted.
- Art societies are virtually placing an emphasis on the visual as well as thus should their blog
- blog posts tin present people what the club does as well as what it has to offering through the purpose of photographs of activities as well as artwork
- members, their artwork as well as their exhibitions are profiled - it's a perk as well as a fleck of extra marketing which is ever welcome - addition it too provides the footing for regular updates throughout the year
These are the previous winners.
- 2012: The Royal Institute of Oil Painters Blog - the ROI weblog is loaded amongst images from exhibitions as well as fine art events. Plus it makes a call for of highlighting private members as well as their exhibitions, galleries as well as websites - inward turn. It too highlights awards made to members past times other fine art societies. The weblog post virtually the Annual Exhibition was notified a calendar month inward advance on the blog. This too emphasised the opportunities for people to lookout adult man demonstrations for free.
- 2011 - The Denver Art Society has a combined website as well as blog. I strongly suspect it mightiness live to a greater extent than accurate to telephone squall upward it a weblog amongst static pages. This opened my eyes to what tin live achieved inward damage of dynamic content, pattern as well as the range for a club to bring a real potent connector amongst its local community. It combines the essential static data pages which most societies bring amongst ii split upward streams of dynamic pages which update on (1) the latest tidings as well as (2) regular artwork on display or beingness produced past times creative mortal members. The Home Page constantly updates amongst a layout which places priority on the dynamic content as well as the twitterstream as well as a schedule of upcoming events.
