Subject: October Challenge - MINIMALISM
@evieluise
You are right. Sorry it was my fault.
I think that the 3 picture rule was one rule for the contests out of the challenge arena.

What an amazing group of entries we have this month! Thanks for joining in to make this a great challenge. It's now time to close the entries and let the voting begin! The voting will be in this thread, after this entry. You get to choose your 3 favorite entries, giving each of them 3, 2 or 1 points. Remember, you are choosing an entry, not an artist. If someone has posted more than one entry, you need to indicate which is your choice.
Your vote should look something like this:
Little - "Bits" - 3 points
e e cummings - "Words" - 2 points
Day - "Night" - 1 point
Feel free to nominate Honorable Mentions or make comments.

3 pts to Denger for Vertices1 – to me this really captured the essence of minimalism.
2 pts to gunsan for Morning Stillness – this just really appealed to me, simple and so peaceful.
1 pts to evielouise for Halloween – the simple subject set off by the dark contrast was great.
As trite as it sounds, there truly were too many wonderful entries for me to wrap my mind around the task of picking honorable mentions. It makes my brain hurt just thinking of about it. Terrific job, all.

**Minimalist art makes a bold statement, the strength of a given work deriving in part from its simplicity. What the artist withholds speaks just as loudly (and often more loudly) than what the artist reveals. In minimalism, a title can also be very important, since it may plant a suggestion within the mind's eye of the viewer. The title affects an individual's interpretation of that piece.
In my opinion, minimalist imagery is always pared down to its most basic components; each part of the whole existing for a clear purpose: nothing is superfluous, nothing redundant, nothing excessive.
Based on these criteria, the task of voting for only three pieces became a daunting one, as there were numerous submissions which deserved a "3". Those listed below certainly did. That said, my vote reflects not only those works which are truly minimalism, but those which I believe show exceptional insight. The following works clearly say something, and they say it in an unmistakably beautiful way...
RuyBerna "Light Door" 3 *
jstro "Caution" 2
ARTWITHIN "FLOW" 1
Deserving of Special Honorable Mention:
Conniekat8 "Solution"
Deserving of Honorable Mention:
Analog-X "Face of Bubbles"
awjay Excerpt from "Window on a Window"
* It must be said that "Silhouette Kiss" by RuyBerna would have received my "3", had the brightness level of that image been reduced and the contrast level slightly increased. In this instance, the good was the enemy of the best.**
