ArtGirl's C-Squared Spotlight Banner Entry!
Oh la laaa! Welcome to another art post by yours truly! I'm on a bit of an art roll hey! 😃
Few days ago I created a banner for C-Squared's contest. What better way to do it than putting my artwork together and adding the spotlights as requested eh? I present to you, my entry for the banner contest!

Ah yes... Such an art filled banner indeed.
Guess what I used to make it? Hehe.
Well, as with my other art posts here, I did this using my smartphone. 🎉🎉🎉
1. Tool used: HTC U11 smartphone
2. Program used: Pixlr
3. Process:
So first I took a screenshot of my Instagram account. It's full of my artwork of course. As the instructions stated, I'm using mostly my artwork here. 😂

And then the required statement saying "Artists' Highlights."

And of course the spotlights... I could've used the paint tool or something but I just put two colored circle stickers on there. Apps stuff are technically free to use for any art anyway. 😅

And then came the sponsor logo C2 and the spotlights of course... Actually at first I had it saying "by"...

But they might have me edit it anyway so I changed it to "at". 😅

And then I added a few more artists' highlights words at the bottom. Voila!

I have the high res version too which I can send when I win. Ehehe. It's not that big but it's enough for any digital presentation. 😊
You can see the background has a lot of little art stuff like a video icon, digital art with words, pen art and such. You know since it's an artist highlighting banner I think it's just appropriate to use an artsy background. 👍
Oh wait, lemme include a mock-up with two amazing artists in the spotlight.

Plus a bit more editing. Hehe.

All images are mine, except Jim Lee and Whilce Portacio's pics © Luigi Novi from their Wikipedia articles.
So you see, it's a bit different from the first image above. I think this looks better. I can still tweak this actually but the top prize is good enough for this artwork. 😊
How'd you like it? Let me know what you think. 😉
XOXO,
@artgirl
