Welcome to the third Music Inspired Art Contest! 


The first one was in 2015, the second in 2019. The Idea is to make an illustration or GIF inspired by a song from the audio portal. I would like to make this an annual thing, and to make it stick I think it would be best to celebrate it at the same time every year, from July 1st to August 31st, after the Art Inspired Music Contest. To encourage participation, we're offering MONEY, yeah that's right you can win some money.

The judges ( @Miroko , @sabtastic and I) will take into consideration the quality of the piece, originality and how well it compliments the song. Everyone is encouraged to take part in the contest, and I'm looking forward to looking at all the entries!

Thank you so much! :) I never imagined when I made AIM that it would start a secondary contest like this, but I figured someone might have the idea, but then it's been a thing 3 times now, that's crazy, and awesome. I love you guys.

PS: I still wear your shirt you made for me, but im sad it's not available anymore because it's a really awesome shirt. You should def make more shirts. It would be cool if the winners had their own shirts made with their art haha. I wish you guys the best!


Thanks man, I appreciate it!

I'm not really known for digital art under either this account or my main one, but I might consider 3D Modelling something together for this if I get some spare time!

You said you don't want any prizes, so if you win anything, you can donate it if you want.

Is the interview mandatory for the person who will arrive first?

No it's not, it's up to you.

Response to MIA Contest 2020 2020-08-13 03:45:58


So it’s the person who comes first who decides whether they want to do the interview or not. Is that correct?
