$500+ PRIZE POOL
Again, on top of what Steemit already offers, we sweeten the pot with an additional $500 into the prize pool! Also 50% of all Steem Dollars earned on all March-Art Madness posts this month will be added to the prize pool! (50% goes to steemcash, 50% to steempower for promotions). From that, here is the contest specific breakdown.
- 1st place $200 (+50% of those Steem Dollars)
- 2nd Place $100 (+25% of those Steem Dollars)
- 3-10th Place $25 (+25% of those Steem Dollars)
What Are We Looking For
Top 10 will be chosen based off creativity, craft, activity in the community, support of other artists, and dedication to spreading the Steemit platform.
PROMOTE STEEMIT! Simple as that!
Not required, but for bonus points, come up with a way to put promotion within your artwork/performance/video/etc. itself, to help further steemit in some form!
We will be very active on the feed, be active as well! Comment on your fellow artists posts, be engaged, encourage and uplift the community. We as early adopters will create the greatest decentralized artist community on social media!
Winners will be announced at the end of March. We will feature, resteem, and upvote contestants all month long. Have fun and help art followers, creative communities, and entrepreneurial doers--people involved in every art form--learn about the power of Steemit! (video, performance, multimedia, photography, music, design, etc.).

You have received a @GrumpyCat flag because you or someone else sent money to buy votes from an irresponsible non-GrumpyCompliant service.
@therising, @sneaky-ninja and @aksdwi are acting irresponsibly by selling votes to people on their post very close to final payout. (~99% abuse rate)
Sending money to these bots is also financially supporting for-profit spammers.
To know what voting bot to use, refer to https://steembottracker.com/ and use those that have 3.5 day or less in the "Max Age" column.
Important, The above bots have made no effort to comply for months so the votes they sell might still be targeted even if they change their Max Age to 3.5 day.

It is awesome to see a place for artists to show their work. I'm still new to Steemit so I'm still getting all of this figured out. I thought entering this #stateofthearts contest would be a great way to get to know some of you creative people. I used to paint and I still do some photography and design work but I have focused on functional art (pottery) for the last several years.
Hopefully this is allowed: I'm going to enter the best 5 of my most recent drinking vessels. These were all thrown on the pottery wheel and are made with stoneware clay.
The handles were pulled and attached by hand. Glazes were dipped and poured by hand. I fired these mugs and cups to over 2200 deg. F
The 3 on the left were fired again after I applied ceramic decals which I designed using old public domain maps. The two on the right have my favorite glaze combinations including one that moves a lot while firing.
I would love to answer any questions. I'll check back later, for now I have to glaze some more pots. Thanks!
👍
I posted an image and links on my Facebook page to help promote steemit and the contest.
