This one is my favourite of 3 entries and promotes Magical Moments. Creating magical moments and great memories is something i always strive to do when on holiday and also when i go on a walk with my other half.

This image shows a romantic beach walk as the sunsets.

I would love for my image to win because promoting, creating magical moments and memories are the ultimate joy in life.

Thanks for taking a look.

Hi all, I started with only one image for the contest.

When browsing through my images, I tried to imagine them on a billboard. A horizontal image that can be cropped, beautiful scenery, and nice colors. Something that hopefully creates a positive mood when looking at it through the car window on the way to work ;-)

Every vote on this one is highly appreciated (only if you like the image)! Would love to win one more of this Px shirts :-)

Fantastic! This thread is exactly what I need... I LOVE the Billboard Contest. Thank YOU for hosting it annually!

In fact, the Wide Format WFPPP Group began as the A4B Art 4 Billboards many years ago, to learn how to size artwork for ArtPop Billboards in my community, and then they wouldn't allow me to enter across the river... So I started A4B and now it's WFPPP... To encourage WIDE format artwork, photography & triptychs on billboards, horizontally or vertically... The standard is 30x10 for products here on FAA & good standard for billboard sizing & competitions...

I'm proud of achieving over 385k views of my creative photography here on FAA. Though I do not have a tribe of followers that go on FAA to vote for my creative works.

So I just posted: Butterfly Abstract Wide, is an architectural photographic abstraction. I just place in the FAA Leader board, Top 50 artworks in the Unique Digital Abstract Contest...I'm open to your thoughts, feedback, seek your views, clicks, comments, social media sharing & votes!

I have also encouraged a few fellows that I'd like to see their artwork on the 2022 FAA Billboard as well as their work be representative of work that I'd be proud to see nationally recognized. I know that encouragement matters & they have either entered &/or considering.

Q: What is the ARTIST dimensions side of the shared Billboard 2022?

Aurora borealis aka the northern lights is an unforgettable experience for sure. During my road trip around Iceland I was lucky enough to view the northern lights more than once.

In this photo you can see the northern lights dancing in the night sky over Godafoss waterfall.

This is my only entry in the contest. If you like my image any vote is really appreciated!

Book houses: A street in a fairytale town made of houses created with old books. Surreal photography and photo collage.
The pictures used to create this village with the architectural details are from my different travels all around the word. It took several hours of work and fun to create this image celebrating the beauty of old books and the power of reading and imagination.

Hello everyone! I submitted 3 entries. I know, sometimes I think big :)

Anyway, my first one is THE HEART AND ITS COLORS. It's a beautiful, creative and colourful digital painting of a heart.
Every nuance represents the complexity and the richness of our emotions.
I chose it because the heart is probably the world's most famous symbol. To me, it's also the most beautiful one. Even just a simple heart can say a lot...

OK, let's go to my second entry, MY DAILY VITAMIN SEA. It's a creative painting, I chose it because it talks of me and of what gives me energy:
The ocean and the sun at my favourite time of the day, at sunset, when the sky fills with magical colors and becomes like an artistic canvas. And the blue sea fills with golden reflections.
It's a bit different than other normal seascapes, I realize that. But this is the beauty of creativity: it's not ordinary.

And what do you think about my third entry, SUNSET OVER THE COLOSSEUM?
Link to VOTE:https://fineartamerica.com/contests/billboard-contest-2022.html?tab=vote&artworkid=44743838
I chose it for many reasons.
This iconic symbol of Rome, in Italy, is one of the 7 wonders of the modern world. It's an amazing piece of history right in the middle of a city. It's an impressive popular attraction.

After being misused, as we all know, it was then left in an abandoned state for quite some time, so much so that it was even used as a source of materials to construct other buildings. What we see today is only 1/3 of its original size, also because of an earthquake.

It's interesting that inside it's like a jungle: the scientists are studying the more than 350 species of plants that have grown spontaneously!
It was built in only 5 years (from 75 to 80 dC), it has about 80 different entrances and inside there is even a villa (built for a family while it was in disuse).

Gigantic umbrellas to protect the audience from the sun and even first kind of lifts could be used!
It could also become a huge pool thanks to an engineering system that would fill the theater and let the boats go inside, I'm not sure how.

Thank you again for your kind attention!

This "Tree By The Water" is one of those photographic subjects that I love at first sight when I saw it in a local garden. I pick this image because I think it should also be eye-catching on a billboard.

I have entered this image into the Billboard contest. It is called “Oriental Spa”

The sun is shining through exotic delicate yellow and orange orchid flowers with crimson centres on a delicate green background. The orchids are reflected in the gently rippling cool waters of the oriental spa.

This lovely colourful image would look very eye catching on a huge billboard.

It is also a wonderfully calm and relaxing image to enhance any room in your home. Time to sit and daydream!

This photo shows a young boy who has completely changed his life to pursue a different career and captures him at the moment he fulfilled his dream to visit this Mooserboden dam in Austria overlooking the Kaprun glacier. This photo is meant to express the success, joy, new beginning and beauty of the Austrian nature.

Want to see Molly, the goatling, looking down at you from a billboard? She was born onto my smallholding a few years ago, the daughter of one of my "girls", and now lives in the northwest of Ireland on another farm.

Wall Art

The image is my favourite among my three entries and best suited for a billboard. Not only does she look straight at the viewer but the square image can also be cropped to fit the billboard. This is what it would look like.

In the previous Billboard competitions, there was no winner with an abstract style image.
I believe it is important for the contest participants, all FAA members, and any viewers to know that the diversity of top images in Billboard competitions could be expanded.

My only entry in Billboard 2022 competitions is an abstract image, which had already won 1st place in one of the standard FAA competitions. I think this image is worth your vote.

Like Val I don't have too many people I can hit up for votes but I entered anyway because it is a cool contest.

I was out bird watching near a stand of wild trees that edge a field near me and this cute little one landed about 6 feet from me on a bare branch. It hopped around the branch and changed direction, so I was really happy to get this close up shot of this sweet little Carolina Chickadee bird. I love the way its feet grasp the thin branch.
Carolina chickadees (Poecile carolinensis) are small birds that are black and white and have a peach toned belly. They are most common in wooded areas and the forest edge. They can mate for life and sometimes use old woodpecker holes for their nests. You can see these birds in the southern portion of the United States and sometimes bird watchers mistake them for Black-capped Chickadees as they look almost identical.

A Rose flower in my mother’s garden. It is a pretty shade of purple. I processed the image with a slight illustrative technique and a painterly style. I gave it canvas texture as well for an artsy elegant design.
Roses can symbolize many things. Purple roses mostly tend to represent enchantment. Also, they can portray love at first sight. They are known as regal with a royal ambience. They are a rare color tone of roses, so it is really a treat to see them growing in my mother’s planter garden.

These lilies were so colorful, and I like the bunched-up bouquet of them in this image. I photographed them where only flower and stems are in the close up. I processed the image in an illustrated and painterly style.
Lilies have many varieties and colors. Some are called day lilies because the flower blooms for just one day. They are a perennial plant in the genus Hemerocallis. They bloom in the summer season in most areas. The great thing about these flowers, besides their striking beauty, is that they are very drought tolerant.

This picture I took when I went to Florida in the end of more than one year long work in COVID ward.Than I got nominated for 2 free tickets anywhere I wanted as a medical worker. I choose Englewood,Florida. After what we went through, passing away my young coworkers, passing away multiple our Covid patients, and myself being sick with it and survive, this sunset looked like a fairytale. Like some invitation for life! And,God, I really needed!

Blue and Green Trees is an abstract watercolor based on a short story from fellow artist, Philip Tripi: He wrote: 'I once was the color blue then one day I fell upon a block and turned green than all of my world seemed so colorful , happy and gleeful. I am now many more colors than just blue.' The blue trees on the left are all sad until they turn to their right and become happy, green trees with dancing rainbow flowers in the background.

Mike,
>" I think if you submit a work of art for the contest, it should be something that stands on its own."

This is not how it works in the Billboard contest.

There is no Search button within the contest. Therefore the only real way for people to see your image is if that image is among the Leaderboard images. There are 500 images on the Leaderboard, As of today, there are around 15 thousand images uploaded to the Billboard contest. Your work could "stands on its own" only if people could see it. To make it work, you HAVE TO solicit and get votes.

If you missed that train (the Leaderboard images), then the only thing you could still do is to vote for images in the Leaderboard, which you like to help them to get over the 100 votes threshold.

Here is the link to my entry in the Billboard contest - https://fineartamerica.com/contests/billboard-contest-2022.html?tab=vote&artworkid=42876688.
I have gotten 44 votes so far.

Here is the image itself.

Description: There is a challenge in depicting motion and showing movement over time in images. That challenge is even more prominent in abstract images. This artwork presents my impression of an abstract dance of colors.

Only 24 more votes needed for this image to qualify for the juried round. It would look great on a billboard in Chicago during the winter!

Here's my sales pitch...

In the past, I was not a big fan of winter. Since I started painting winter landscapes, I've become much more appreciative of the beauty of the winter season--especially when sun is shining on freshly fallen snow, creating cool blue and purple shadows. That has prompted me to go on outdoor excursions on cold winter days to enjoy the scenery. Since this contest will include billboards on display during the winter, and in cities like Chicago, I'd love to see this season's landscapes represented. Maybe others, who are not big fans of winter, will also be drawn into more of an appreciation of winter's beauty.

As I see this contest and thus any billboard, for that matter, the “purpose” of it’s image is to capture the attention of passererbys first and foremost. And one of the main ways to do that is with Colors bold and bright! Thusly I think my abstract titled “Playing With Color”, would do the job perfectly. Many thanks for any votes you all give me.

Well August 2022 Billboard show has been fun!!!
Thank YOU FAA/pixels for this annual tradition, it's great for community.

I cast my final 2 votes, not seeing anyone tettering on the edge of moving forward or T-shirt; I scrolled thru to pg 70 where the first entries were... and cast one there... and then picked a pg in the show to explore finding a great entry with zero votes...

I'm thinking every artwork should automatically receive our own vote just for working as hard as we do here! So here's to everyone's a winner that entered every one of us 6,658 artist entering 17,465 artworks! We are the WINNERS b/c we make FAA/pixels spin worldwide. GJ glorijean
