Open APPLICATION for Traditional Works by Solo Member TRADITIONAL Artists.

Posting your work here means that you agree to the following:

1. That the work use purely TRADITIONAL art techniques – NO DIGITAL

2. That you are willingly to allow the work to be either used as “reference” or used as “inspiration”
for another work, over which you will not claim copyright. You are granting the translating
artist to use the composition for that ONE work only, and under certain conditions; and may impose
further restrictions; but not on sale of the ONE translated work or its prints or products.

3. That if your post is ultimately deleted from the posts, here, that you understand that to mean
it is not accepted. You may choose to post another in its stead, before the deadline.

4. The Deadline for posting is Wed. Sep 7, noon, New York time. Find your city’s time on the world clock

Remember:

1. The work can not have been invited to a previous SoJie exhibition. You’ll see the badge in the comments of the image description page if it was.

1. Use only The Special Easy Button – SoJie version to post your works here.
   Just input the the web address of your public comment page for the image and scroll down to press the small easy button. Everything is already checked off for you in the special version. DON’T CHANGE ANY SETTINGS. Copy the code that appears in the text box and paste it to a comment here.

Rules for Originating Traditional Artists posting "BASIS WORKS (i.e., works to be translated)

1) You may agree to all of the following translations, with a maximum of three total translations:

1. ONE “Traditional Art” translation;
2. ONE “Photographic Art” translation; and
3. ONE “Digital Art” translation.

2) In each AGREEMENT for TRANSLATION, YOU are stating that you have already tagged the work. For the tags, Copy the appropriate tag, below, paste it below the “Translations” line by Editing the post containing your image; then substitute the artist name and provide a link to their profile:

1. Traditional work will be translated to Traditional Art by “artist name”(link)
2. Traditional work will be translated to Photographic Art by “photographer name”(link)
3. Traditional work will be translated to Digital Art by “digital artist name”(link)
4. example: Traditional work will be translated to Digital Art by F.A. Moore

3) For the work to be in the October exhibition, your work must have been successfully translated at least ONCE, in the workshop.

 

Rules for Translating Artists and Photographers

1) Discuss with the originating artist your proposal to translate, including the MEDIUM, STYLE, AND SOJIE CATEGORY.
All 2nd and subsequent translations must be approved by me, before you contact the originating artist.

2) Use the provided AGREEMENT, which each party can sign digitally, to reduce possibilities for misunderstanding.
Read it so you understand your obligations and your rights. Fill in Paragraph 2 completely, sign by typing your name and date
at the bottom and forward to the Originating Artist who will also “sign” and date. Some fax or send by email rather than bmail.

Post the fully completed and “signed” agreement, here in the workshop, except for any private terms in paragraph 11, which
you should remove from your post.

LINK: AGREEMENT

There is no “stacking” of agreements allowed. Stacking, in this context, means having two or more agreements in the works at once.
A work MUST be completed before you seek permission to approach a second artist for translation.

3) At least TWO Works in Progress posts are expected, HERE, in this workspace, even by Photographers WHILE YOU ARE IN PROCESS, meaning before you go to the next stage of the work. (The exception is for Watercolor, where only ONE WIP is required.)

RELATED REQUEST: Please only post the the latest WIP in the Feature Medium size of the Easy Button. Hosts will enlarge it to 550×550. Previous WIPs may be reposted if they are smaller (The Feature Small size, or small thumbnails are perfect for recapping previous WIPs).

4) Deadline is September 30 for finals – end of the month. Wips must be posted BEFORE then.

5) OPTIONAL: SUMMARIZE YOUR WIP PROCESS (or finished work) IN THE FIRST TWO LINES OF TEXT OF YOUR POST. POST THE work-in-progress IMAGE JUST BELOW THE SUMMARY. SKIP A LINE before typing anything below the WIP image.

This is for the purpose of our volunteers who are adding a brief synopsis of your WIP process to Solo’s Facebook Wall. If there is no summary at the top, the volunteers will be instructed to NOT post a notice on Facebook concerning your WIP, or finished work.

Facebook wall posts really help our views in the workshop, so that everyone gets a little PR and has the opportunity to gain a new following.

Begin your summary with the word, “Summary”, so that the helpers will know it is intended for the Solo wall. End it with one dash and your artist name.

example of summary post:

Summary: Between WIP 5 and Final, I rotated the painting, refined the face and its features, detailed “Nature Jewels” on the hat with fowl, flora, and fauna, and used a palette knife across the background to create a look of something akin to “internal cosmic space”. – F.A. Moore

Cosmos
by F.A. Moore

blah, blah, blah… other stuff, enlarged explanation, questions to other workshop members, etc. goes here! This part will not be included.
Remember FB only uses tiny thumbnails. The actual images are not used.
