On the time thing, though, I really think drawings should be judged first on artistic merit, and then if it totally sucks, look at the time spent, see if more time could have made it better, and then decide whether or not to delete it.

That's how it is now, look at the rules.

8 minutes, and then 4 minutes. Someone was just messing around with the different tools and stuff. The only real tangible thing is the mushroom, the rest looks like randomly places ovals (are they there for a reason? if so, what's the reason?). What about the colors? Are they chosen for a reason? I think it's deletable material, but I don't know if I would bother actually deleting it (I didn't). The thing that really bothers me is the neon green squigly lines along the bottom which doesn't help the piece at all.

The rules:

This doesn't mean you can't post 5 or 10 minute sketches, but they have to be good 5 or 10 minute sketches, and they should be mixed with pictures you put more time into. Although there is something to be learned from quick sketches in traditional art, we strongly discourage submitting these sketches.

I don't think it's that great for a quick sketch even for beginner stuff.

As for whether drawings should be judged on artistic merit, I think there's still an acceptable "bottom line" as to what is just spam.

I thought the green squiggly lines at the bottom were grass. The ovals (in my eye) were a clay pot & lid to gather the mushrooms. But then, Dejas my sister so I know how she thinks. :) Or maybe not.

I like how this finshed.. nicely drawn ..I like the clouds and the fence

i like this pic alot because the shape of the body is perfect and the clouds look sooooo real. love it ^^.

I've never heard it, but I definately would, given the chance.

oh lol, before I recognized a head on that tumpet I was actually like, wow a headless guy next to a trumpet on the sidewalk, how does he come up with this stuff?? would've made for great symbolism. still loving the style.

you can rename it to anything you want, just hit 'edit'

What's for lunch, davin?

oooooo! i see a dragon! very good though you might want to add more feeling.

This would be more dramatic with a nice background..nice flowing lines..and would look more like fire with a darker bg to accentuate the flames
