13 July 2022 - Photo competition

Another photo competition

We are frequently finding that we are trying to buy interesting cards to use for occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. We think it would be a good idea to run another competition to find some original Shedder artwork that can be printed onto a gift card. Anything is possible: a piece of craft work, a photograph, a painting, a sculpture or even some embroidery. The field is wide open. It should be related to shed activities however tenuous and copyright must be yours.

We close the competition on Wednesday 13th July 2022.

It's the same deal as our other competitions from the past. Just send no more than three entries to Dave Milward after taking a jpeg photograph of your artwork. After the cut off date we will all vote for our preferred artwork and we will then print some cards for use by the club. If your artwork is a four foot stone statue you might want to bring it along one Wednesday for viewing. But, ultimately we're going to need a photograph. If photographs are not your forte then maybe another shedder will oblige.

I look forward to hearing from you. Dave. milwarddave@gmail.com

This is here just for historical reasons.

This time the competition was won by Dave with his photo of a snow painting. We had 50 cards printed by BonusPrint and were sold at cost to some of our members.

My thanks to everyone who participated. Dave
