Please sign me up!

Yes please!

I would like to try it.

I'm considering this a drawing challenge for me like the one a week challenge. I never realized how hard it is to get good reference photos by photographing your own eye with a closeup setting LOL.

Off to do my other challenge drawing.

Hello, I painted the eye of a colorful chameleon.

Thank you!

Detailed eye means the eye is the subject. The eye is the only thing we are interested in during this challenge and should be the focus (sorry) of the picture

Ok, sorry Abbie, I have done an other entry, just an eye. But may I please ask: if photographers present a bit of face of the subject can I do the same with a painting please? Thank you very much for considering!

The message is for everyone. The whole theme is an eye. One eye. The eye must be the real main subject

OK Abbie thank you very much for your patience in explaining me, sorry for the hassle! One eye and that's it, very cool, thank you!

I have made a new image and submitted for Day 1 of Detailed EYE challenge. Sorry for the trouble!

yay i got it fixed... image embed is full code & my image visible.

Day 2 has started.

Hi, for day 2 I draw a more realistic eye of a young woman

Thank you!

I've removed an image to be done again. Please read my last few posts in this thread.

It's very important to do challenges properly as it's a test of one subject. This subject is an eye

Day 3 has started.

I am amazed at the images you all are posting, beautiful stuff!

Hi, For day 3 I chose an abstracted eye, it's a conceptual artwork and it's called An eye for nature 1.

When possible, I like the series in a given challenge have something in common.

In this case " My EYE"

Today's image was particularly daunting, doing it with a hands on digital process I call, "Pixel Pointillism"

After a number of trials an errors, I've settled on the rather "Crazy" image I've just posted


By the way, I started to "Pointillize" the eyebrow, but that would have taken all day, even perhaps into tomorrow.

And I believe would be less effective


Tomorrow, I intend to create an actual rendition in pen and ink,

Your images are all amazing! Well done. Eyes aren't actually easy

Day 4 has started.

Hi, for my day 4 I draw the eye of a little kid and I called it The eye of innocence.
Innocence doesn't simply mean not knowing.
It's their simplicity and purity that touches our hearts.
The way they say what they think, without overthinking.
It's their delightful joy that makes them enthusiastic over little things.
It's their sweet ingenuity.
And it's the complete trust that they have in us.
Their innocence is their beauty.
There is no seeing without looking.

Thank you so much everyone for this challenge, especially Abbie and Gaby and well done everyone!

Hi Abbie and all challenge participants. While no one has said anything to me about my Day 1 submission, in retrospect I am thinking it did not comply with the instructions of the challenge in that the image was not just of the emu's eye, but of its surrounding neck as well. As a result, I am wanting to submit a new image as seen below:



Should I just add it to an edited Day 1 post, or leave it here?

David,

I think it's too late to edit your Day 1 submission (24 hour max)

It is too late now. But we accepted the original as long as future ones are in the vein of eye equality

It is, indeed, harder than it looks, I got stuck thinking about different coloured eyes, but it's not much of a challenge doing simple colour variation. Anyway, definitely stretched me a bit.

I loved this challenge! I could use a few more days! Nice to see everyone's take on the theme as usual. Eyes are Awesome!

Day 4 Ended, I am sorry if you missed Day 4, you are out.

Great images everyone, such a fun challenge!

Certificates for those who completed all 4 days will available soon.

I got super busy editing images of a marathon I was hired to photograph and missed day 4

@Iris Congrats for the editing gig... That's great!

Great challenge! thank you Abbie and Gaby!

Nice work everyone, I loved seeing all the eyes!

Sorry you missed the last day Iris but congrats on your marathon editing!

Great challenge, I enjoyed it personally and it drives me to draw something special I didn't think of before ...

Thanks a lot

Thanks everyone. This was quite a challenge for me (especially after a somewhat rocky start), but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Really great challenge!!! Thank you Abbie and Gaby!!! Some really great images of eyes and how they were drawn or painted or photographed was just terrific!!!!

Iris, congratulations on your photography shoot!!!!

I am running late and all certificates will go up tomorrow

Thanks everyone!

Ok I am all caught up and everyone has a certificate up on the challenge site https://ourartsmagazine.com/pixelscac/
