Because I'm a writer, I tend to think in literary terms: but expressing yourself in ME using graphic arts as well is a fabulous idea! I love looking at the graphics work of our members, especially as I'm such a clutz with html. Maybe we could have two separate divisions: one for short stories, and one for images? I used to do portrait work, and I once did a series of portraits of Bilbo, Frodo, and the rest. They've gotten lost over the years, and I really miss them. If I could see graphics work of the same kind by the rest of the group, it would be the greatest! Maybe we could have a separate contest for a Valinor placque? or two or three...
