Yep..I know exactly what you mean on that one...that gave me pause for thought too. But I came up with an idea for it so I may do it. I guess it's a level of validation as well...since I come from the commercial graphics production side of things (magazines...websites, etc), being able to place well in an artistic competition shows me that I've achieved at least a certain level of competency. I'm not really marketing myself as an "artist" YET..just prepping to, so entering widens my portfolio AND evaluates it at the same time. If I can't get at least "something" in or place within a certain range, I know I still have some work to do. I suppose it's personal satisfaction as well...although I wouldn't go so far as to call it vanity. My favorite books right now have to be the Ballistic ones though. They are gorgeous...let's hope this one comes out as well.
