~*DREAMS*~ Art Theme WINNERS for the Drawing Challenge Art Theme of the Week Group!

Hello Drawing Challenge Group members and fellow Gatherites!  I hope everyone has been having a great week!  I have a surprise for everyone; the article with the winners for last week's DREAMS art theme is ON TIME!  YAY!!

I did notice that some of the Dream and Halloween drawings entered have disappeared from the group so if that was intentional, okay but if you didn't mean to do that, they will need to be re-posted to the group.  Thank you to those who emailed me to let me know you didn't remove your drawings on purpose, I appreciate it!  The new Gather Photo Albums don't share pictures with the group unless you add the Drawing Challenge Group to its original settings.

**I offer a hearty handshake and a sincere congratulations to our winners, along with full bragging rights on your awesome win **

I hope you will join me in congratulating our winners on an art theme well drawn!

Does anyone want to be a guest judge?  If you do and there is a particular art theme that interests you the most, pick one, let me know and YOU can be our guest judge for that week's drawings!  If you do guest judge, your drawings don't count for the judging that week though.  And a guest judge has to be a member of the Drawing Challenge Group.  But let me know if you'd like to be a guest judge, it's easy, just ask Deneen and Gary!  Send me an email to let me know.  :-)

A big THANK YOU to our two past guest judges, Deneen and Gary! THANK YOU!
