We are officially a Super Group as of 25 minutes ago!
Not only that but we are holding our first competition we've named it "The Best Thing About Being British" Considering we're all about being British here and showcasing our dashing British talent why not?
Here are the rules at the moment:
Any art medium can be chosen, all we ask is that you use two; for example charcoal and paint, photography and craft, watercolour and ink and so on: Be as creative as you dare, oh and if you are literature orientated do not think you won't be able to take part, you will! Just create a piece, but make sure you keep to the rules!
It must show all the things you love about being British, whether the fashion, the food, the multiculturalism or even the weather
That you try to push yourself and produce your best piece of art yet!
Prizes: Are yet to be decided and we shall let you know as soon as possible.
Side note
We are also looking for Admin members, we need people that are committed and will actually help manage the group, not only that but they either have some experience with this type of thing or are willing to learn. If you would like to be a part of the admin please write a little paragraph and tell us why bellow in the comment section.
And I would like to give you all a task: If we could all invite three people, [Yes all of us, that means even the people that read the journal and decide not to comment. Yes you. I'm talking to you] Invite a person to the group and hopefully we can start planning DevMeets/Barbecues and things!
I know I keep say thing this and I do feel like a disk that skips and says the same things, over and over, but there are STILL people submitting to the old group... That is why I mentioned the above, so please could you do this for me
Thank you ^_^
I will add a folder entitled the name of the contest, and I shall discuss the deadline for the competition with the team.
[EDIT]
Because of our super group status we are having stricter rules on submissions and because of recent discussions regarding a few pieces we ask that you not be offended if we decline your work we would like all your best pieces of artwork to showcase just how smashing we Brits are.
We also intend to have new folders for css and journal submissions as we can now customise the page! There will be new and exciting things for group, I have also set up a donation page regarding points to help with running competitions so if you have them please could you spare a few Thank you!

Stretching the paint out.
It is quite probable that quite a lot of people already do this. I use acrylics in the larger plastic tubes (Galeria). Once a tube is about finished I screw the top off and pour in some Acrylic medium and give it a good shake around. I now have a tube of very thin (translucent) acrylic paint, tinted to the colour originally in the tube. This is useful as a glaze for overpainting.
*NEW ADMINS WANTED*
Hello All,
We are looking for two new people to help govern the intake of art we are receiving; many of your pieces are expiring due to the load that is being submitted.
We are wanting to welcome members who have an eye for, and can judge the quality of art being submitted fairly, this group is solely for the purpose of showcasing the best of all things British and so we must have the best of people able to manage them.
Please put your name forward via comment below or noting the group if you think you are up for the job.
Looking forward to working with you,
Until next time;

Red Kite

In memory of at least sixteen Red Kites and four Buzzards poisoned in the Highlands of Scotland earlier this year. There is a silhouette in the background for each bird as well as the main figure: http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2014/apr/30/black-isle-red-kites-poisoned
Red Kites are beautiful and distinctive birds of prey, ones I particularly enjoy watching in action. There’s something about the way they move, so elegant and powerful. It moves me. As the death toll rose in Ross-shire in what would amount to a particularly disturbing incidence of persecution, I was appalled. Each individual kil
Expirations
I imagine all of us have individually been busy over the summer, so please resubmit any works that have expired :)
Thank you
