Calling all artists!! (Longtime artists, newbie artists, occasional artists, or people that just want to try things for fun).

We have a winner!
Last weeks theme was Fresh.
I am so excited to announce last weeks winner.
Without further adieu...
Congratulations! With a score of 4.75, 
with the submission Floating Market, which you can see the Original Post here
This was a great take on the theme this week. Using fresh produce not just alone, but always with people and boats and a whole picture of a floating market. It was definitely a well-named piece as well. Colorful and eye-catching. This piece also won the popular vote this week. Congrats again to our winner.

Scoring
Assuming each rule has been followed, each submission gets scored in 4 categories. Creativity, Originality, Quality, Popularity. All categories are scored out of 5 by me, and often times I also use at least one other set of eyes. The scores are then added together from all 4 categories and averaged to find a score out of 5. That is the winner.
