2011 free for all! In this section you are allowed to use any media on anyway you wish. The theme for this section is The Creation of Art. Now, in this section, we dont want just any old picture and we dont want just a finished product. In this section we are asking you to show us HOW you created that picture. Show us HOW you put that physical media piece together. Write us a poem about HOW art is created. We want the process not the end. So, for example you can take a picture of someone painting or use a tutorial deviation.

#Note - Example pictures are not all accurate to the style or era. They are only the best that could be found on deviantART. It is suggest you research your chosen style and era. Any of the artists names are good to look at and draw inspiration from.

You must be a member of the group to participate

Media depends on what section you choose to join.

You must say in your artists comments that the deviation is entered into #TheDeviantARTGallery's Art Through Time Contest. You must also state which era and style you have chosen to work with. Dont forget to put a link to the groups journal, as well as put the groups icon. If you do not, the deviation will not be accepted.

The deviation can be made before the starting date.

You are only allowed to submit ONE entry to each stage. However, only one of your deviations may make it into the top 7.

All entries must be in the style that is stated in the era you choose to work with.

We ask that you keep it clean, but mature content is allowed.

Make sure you follow each stages individual rules.

If you use a material that was made before the era you are working on, you may only use to enhance the deviation. You cannot use it to create the entire deviation unless it matches the style of that era.

Entires must be entered into their appropriate era folder. It can be found by clicking on the Contest Entry folder and then clicking on Art Through Time contest folder. There you will find the folder you are looking for.
