October 2025 -neurographic Art Group Anniversary...

This is our THIRD (3) GROUP ANNIVERSARY! Not an easy feat for maintaining personal dedication to REAL-TIME Artistry, let alone for a group! A GROUP ANNIVERSARY s a special event. I REALLY would appreciate your generosity of effort. Members and non group members alike, LET's STEP IT UP for this CONTEST...IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE ...NEW...NEUROGRAPHIC ARTWORK; contest is also open to ALL who wish to enter CRITERIA-COMPLIANT Neurographic Art!

Please SUBMIT up to four (4) entries of criteria compliant NEUROGRAPHIC ART that you particularly enjoyed creating!!
For this contest, my entries are for: HEALING, BEAUTY, LOVE and SOUL! Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU for your contributions to the world of Neurographic Art!

DEFINITION: Neurographic Art is a drawing TECHNIQUE (developed in 2014 by Russian psychologist, Pavel Piskarev):
PROCESS: Either randomly or intentionally, please select:
1. Your favorite Pens, Pencils, Colour Pencils, sharpies, gelpens, stylus …etc.
2. Your favorite substrate…paper, yupo, vellum, canvas…etc.
3. Breathe in the desire to RELAX and De-stress and allow your intuitive creativity to …

CRITERIA:
1. BEGIN drawing OFFSIDE random lines into and off the paper’s edge in a slow, free flowing, ambling fashion, creating intersections, while holding a feeling or THEME.
2. Thicken some of the lines to define and form shape(s).
3. Finish by FILLING IN the interstices creating 'NEURONs', curving any angles out to soften any points of intersection in a fashion resembling the neurons of our brain.
(Check out the contest logo or approved entries, or Pavel Piskarev's uTube tutorials. NO ART TRAINING is required …this is an intuitive, relaxing exercise; photographers, digital and artists ALL, please consider adding this unique form of expression to your aesthetic).
CRITERIA NOTE: this is NOT continuous line, ZenTangle, doodle, etc. or Abstract Art …It is - NEUROGRAPHIC Art! While you might mix in some other line-style ACCENTS, without that mix of thin and defined lines originating and ending offside as well as roundly thickened interstices (simulating brain neurons) that make the image recognizable as NEUROGRAPHIC ART, your image will be removed without notice…no matter how amazing the other styles of drawing may be.
4. VISIT the group discussion threads for some developmental tips and visual invitations.

The challenge in this contest will be, AS ALWAYS, in developing the NEURONS AT POINTS of INTERSECTION while honoring the integrity of the scene! This will demand delicacy, a tender touch and authentic self expression.
As always, NO Nudity, Violence or Solicitation- please keep it Family friendly .
