Do you remember about "The adventures of Pinocchio" (Le avventure di Pinocchio) the famous fairytale of the Italian storywriter Carlo Collodi?
Well, our contest is based on two nice characters of this story: the Cat and the Fox

The blind cat and the lame fox are two barefaced liars that follow Pinocchio along his adventures and try to steal him and sometimes even to kill him.

In the cartoon version -maybe you've seen the Walt Disney film- they are depicted as animals.
But many theatre versions have been performed as well and we know in different regions of the workl the cat and the fox are seen through different eyes.

In the Italian film, they are two men, and their role was performed by the italian actors Franco and Ciccio (two men).
Russian are used to see a sweet lady performing the fox and a fat man for the blind cat.

Well, the theme of this contest is HOW DO YOU SEE THE CAT AND THE FOX?

You have to show tothe community how you see them , as you were told -as a little child- about them, in the version of your country (as animals, humans or animated robots ;-) if you prefer.

Pickin'on me

Journal Entry: Sun Jan 9, 2011, 6:34 AM
I saw a weird boy
He looked at me with a look of pure hate
Nobody knew all the grie where he'd been
He was a sad case
He was a victim of a dirty good time
Feely games in the back of his boarded up estate
Soon enough he's pickin' on me
Kicked my head in 'cos that's all that he'd seen
Soon enough he's pickin' on me
Pickin' on me










I told my teacher
She looked at me so indifferently
Her whole night was spent marking
Paper red tape
So I had to learn to fight, shoved her sister
'Cos I had no respect
So here's the start of another war
You against me
Soon enough he's pickin' on me
Kicked my head in cos that's all that he'd seen
Soon enough he's pickin' on me
Pickin' on me
Pickin' on me



Words: "Pickin'on me" Skunk Anansie!

Unspoken words

Unspoken words don't consolate me
they're blessed they're cursed

Unspoken words lose their inner beauty when they were revealed!

Childhood Memories...

Tue Oct 19, 2010, 6:47 AM

Childhood memories winners... and contests


Hallo everyone, generally I list the featured works before, but I know only a few of you will reach the end of a journal :laughing: and, among the ones who do it, a little slice of this cake will comment below :smoking:

Well, so before the features, just a few contests you might be interested in.

:bulletred: If you're fond of children :iconbeinspyred: is holding  an interesting contest. You have simply to use one of the stocks listed in the news article Childrens Fantasy Art stock, :+favlove: the article, and follow the rules.
Deadline 30th November.
I hope you enjoy it.









:iconcontest-cornucopia:


For this group contests, you can partecipate even with old entries


:bulletred: I dream of Jeannie.

The date has been extended till the 30th of October.





:bulletred: The Eerie wall

One day you perceived something in that wall and now you try to avoid it. The idea to approach it terrifies you, because it contains something evil, something forbidden, something supernatural. Something that shouldn't be there....


This seems nice to partecipate for me myself... è_é
I have some scary ideas in the last times...
Check the blog article for more info...

A so melancholic piece of visual poetry performed by Andrea. Looking this image I'm preparing to face the winter!

I was looking for some colorizing tutorials here on Da, due to my last experiments.
I hope to try it very soon!
It looks so simple, and well executed!

A thoughtful piece from a varied artist.

A nice texturized and well composed picture






~karimdell

A very enjoyable wallpaper
