Please Read : Submission Guidelines

General

We ask that you respect these submission rules to avoid wasting time for re-submitting and occupying the admins.
The submission guidelines in journal format can be found here.
(Note that all the underlined text in this guide are links!)

:bulletgreen: please make sure to submit to the appropriate folder.

:bulletpink: each member is allowed to submit 1 deviation every week--an exception is if the admins tell you to re-submit to a different folder during the submission process.

:bulletgreen: moderate nudity is acceptable, but it must not be presented in a vulgar and unethical way.

If you are having trouble with submitting work to the gallery, feel free to use this guide.


Content

We're an open minded group. You can submit any kind/style of art that relates to colour. This means you can submit art that is once-coloured, multi-coloured, rainbow-themed or any other form of art that accentuates colour. We welcome beginning and professional artists.

However, please note that we do not accept art that doesn't showcase colour in any way. The point of our groups existence is to showcase use of colour in art.

Please Remember :

1. When voting, we focus on the quality and usage of colour in your work.
There are plenty of images that have lots of colours in them, but simply aren't well thought through or well done. Please take that into consideration when submitting and please do not feel discouraged when your work is declined.

2. We do not accept B&W art.
Please note that we do not accept purely white, black or gray-scale work. It is our personal choice as a group to do so. Please respect this decision.

3. Only submit your best work
Please do not submit scribbles, doodles or quick snapshots. If we feel like very little effort has been put into your piece, we might decline.

4. Please only submit finished art.
We do not accept Works in Progress, uncropped works or blurry/low-quality photos.

5. Make sure the piece has at least 50% of colours.
Please check your piece consists of at least 50% of colours (that aren't black/grey/white). The larger amount of colours, the more likely we are to accept, but we expect the piece to be at least this colorful. If you are unsure about the colourfulness in your piece, feel free to submit anyway. That's what the gallery admins are here for! :)
Artisan Crafts are an exception--the photo of the craft doesn't have to be >50% of colour, as long as the craft itself is at least that colourful.

6. You always get a reason.
The admins will always give a reason for declining your work. This is not to criticize you or your art, but to help you to submit the right kind of art in the future.

7. Make sure to submit to the right folder.
We will decline work submitted to the wrong folders, and tell you in a comment the correct folder to re-submit to. Unfortunately we are getting so many submissions it's impossible to re-submit all of them ourselves, thank you for understanding this.


Gallery Folders

Our gallery folders are divided into selected media. You can submit any style of art in the folders, if the art work in question references colour. Here's a breakdown of all the folders:

Colorful Traditional Art - drawings, painting and any other traditional media with two or more colours.

One Colour Traditional Art - drawings, painting and any other traditional media focusing on a single colour or shade of colours.

Colourful Photos - vibrant, colourful photography with two or more colours.

One Colour Photos - photography showcasing a one main colour or shade of colours.

Colourful Artisan Crafts - jewellery, textiles and any other form of crafts with two or more colours.

One Colour Crafts - jewellery, textiles and any other form of crafts using a single colour or shade of colours.

Colourful Digital Media - photomanipulations, digital paintings, fractals etc with two or more colours used.

One Colour Digital Media - photomanipulations, digital paintings, fractals etc that focuses on a single colour or shade of colours.

Colourful Other - work that doesn't fit the the other categories and has two or more colours used, for example sculpture, stamps or stock images.

One Colour Other - work that doesn't fit the the other categories, and where only one colour or shade of colours has been used.

Colourful Video and Animation - video and animation with two or more colours used.

One Colour Video and Animation - video and animation with one main colour or shade of colours used.

Featured - Hand-picked colourful work from our galleries, these are pieces the gallery admins feel deserve a place in this special folder.

Admins Work - a folder for admins to submit their colour-related work.

Old stuff - a folder for all the submissions that were in the group before but that we now feel don't fit the group anymore since our updated rules. Please don't try submitting here or comparing your work to this, it's called "Old stuff" for a reason!

If you have any questions in regards to any of these rules, then please feel free to send us a note :note:

Thank you for reading! :rose:

Welcome to #I-Heart-Colors! We're a group focused on showing imaginative, colorful and vibrant artists and their work.

We're an unusual color-oriented group with own rules--we only accept works that have more than a certain amount of color in them, are extremely color-focused and of good quality. This only to bring you, dear members and watchers, the color-wise best and most inspiring pieces of art! :heart:

We welcome artists of all skill levels, as long as their art is colorful! If you are an artist who is not afraid to use colors, please do consider joining! If you're only an appreciator of colorful art, you might want to watch the group instead :)

We hope you will gain from your stay with us and enjoy yourself along the way!
