Before joining please read!

I will re-emphasise this point...we do not accept favourites that are coming from yourself for your own works as proposals, please read the rules! If you continue to repeat this, expect a warning.



The sole purpose of this group is to learn, help, benefit and be inspired. The goal is, that through our challenges, your conceptual and artistic skills would improve and you'll just have fun. This group's primary goal are the tri-weekly challenges that we will hosts for members and the interactivity we plan to create in the group.

Please take a look at our blog Group Process and Rules to get a better of what we're aiming for.


A MUST READ**There is to be NO mature content works within this group - meaning no artistic nudes, or close to nudes, or anything of that nature (pinup or sexy), or anything which we deem to be inappropriate and or offensive to a large number of people. Also the use of the pig (images, abstract, anything including the pig [animal]). If you need us to clarify this please ask before posting. So be sure to bare that in mind when coming up or posting works here.

If you do not like these rules, then do not join, if you disregard this rule you will be given a warning, if you disregard this rule after your first warning you will be banned.




:bulletred: What does Conceptual mean?

Well basically it’s about an idea(s), thought(s) or feeling(s). When you begin to resolve or portray them from your creative mind as best as you can, makes your ideas, thoughts and feelings become your concept. An idea is only powerful unless it is expressed well and unless you wish to express a message. Without meaning or feeling it is not a concept.
So just taking a snapshot photograph does not make it a conceptual piece. It’s when you put the concept to it that it becomes something more. The photo alone should speak for itself, even though it can sometimes be ambiguous. That’s where you take that challenge to direct the message in the path that you would like it to go.

Hiatus

Hi guys,
sorry we've been so silent lately, we've been on hiatus for a bit.

One of our mods *TazzyDee is taking a different route on dA, we are sad to see her go. Please be sure to thank her for her help.

We're going to be away for a while, and hopefully we'll be back with livelier games.

I honestly have lost my drive to be on dA, when I get that back (which I hope is very soon) I shall be back.

Take care
and keep on conceptualising!

you are still free to suggest favs

Love is patient...and kind; Love is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs...It always protects, always hopes, always perseveres.
