So, who won the WILD AND STRANGE PHOTO CONTEST (Round 1)?
After a lot of help from the steemit community, I determined that @ballinconscious was the winner with this entry:
Unfortunately, there can be only one winner, but everyone who entered did an amazing job. The next round of this contest is the art contest, where you get to create a piece of art based off of this photo. The artwork can be in any medium. Here is an example of a drawing and some digital art.
By entering any of my contests you are giving me permission to use your entry any way that I see fit.
You guys can draw, paint, pyrograph, get crazy with the digital, use modelling clay, whatever you can think of.
Feel free to make a post with your entry, but make sure to include an image of your entry in the replies to this post to be entered.
I'll close the contest Sunday Night at midnight (CST), so that should give you some time to get creative.
Not sure what I'm looking for exactly, so if you don't have much skills, that doesn't matter, just get creative and have fun!
Except for the original photo from @ballinconscious,

Love this! I am a masked wild creature using advanced light technology!
Also use a laptop to post on steemit very frequently, especially for a wild creature too. Great entry post ^_^
Haha So you're like the modern Steemcreature?
lol I guess I am. Running through the wild and visiting the city periodically for WiFi connection!
Yes! Haha
Internet is important, even for wild bigfoot yeti creatures!
The bar is very HIGH. Great job @rigaronib!
Very high indeed!

I look forward to the "Guess the Gender" contest!
I might try something epic for that contest.... I've got ideas!
Hahahaha! What?! Congratulations, sir! If you revealed that already, I must have missed it.
Just wait until the "guess the gender" contest post!
Number 5 is on that way.. "papa" indeed!
Good for you! I wish more people would - but like me, humans tend to learn the hard way. Luckily my "schooling" was only 9 months.
Psshh only 9 months...Try saying that to a pregnant woman.
You can't make me do it!
@mama-pepper is pregnant right now with only 6 months to go... ain't gonna say it, no way!
This is awesome @rigaronib

Excellent entry @shady!

Great creation, Never thought I would see the day when I had artwork of myself in coffee ^_^
Awesome coffee artwork. I also like that the pepper is positioned under my legs, almost like I am riding it like a surfboard!!!
Thanks. Spicy and fragrant. Maybe you were born for surfing.)))
Awesome, Never have had a spicy chilli pepper surfboard ride. I guess there is a First time for everything ^_^
Had to bring out the BIG GUNS for this one, and enlisted my daughter to give me a hand!

Yay, Feel like I am on cloud nine upvotes!
Haha, Great contest entry post. I like the steem flying everywhere in the background! Also are the tanks on my side or against me?

You work so hard I figured you might want to have a little fun!
Haha that is awesome that you inspired @screenname to enter into the contest!
Pretty good, huh?
Taking things up another level!
UV for you.
I know this won't win... I am nowhere near as talented as most of the people on here and I know it but here is what I came up with LOL.
I picked this photo because of the look on Gene's face and also because it is hard to find one without the Devil's Horns being used lol.
Congrats again to everyone on here. So talented
Never go see what made the noise!!!!
It's a trap!
... it never ends well in the movies, does it? lol
Never...
They always say, "I'll be right back...
And that's the end if them!
Yep LOL
Searching in the woods for a guide to teach me how to rock n' roll all night and party everyday!
Great meme creation, I always love a good story.
Ok ! @papa-pepper ! This was my first time trying this so I hope you guys like it ! As my Entry into contest #2!
STEEM LOVE!!!
I like it and nice job getting creative!
Lol ! I love steemit ! Heh, it took me awhile but at least i know now a bit about how these are made ! Thanks ! I just finished my blog on the process if you want to check it out ! Heres my link ! And good luck everyone!
https://steemit.com/contest/@karenmckersie/here-is-my-entry-into-papa-peppers-wild-and-strange-contest-round-2-art
Thanks, I'll check it out now!
Baby you can light my fire of love^_^
Great contest entry post, I love it. Reminded me of the doors song. Your creation gives a completely different perspective to my picture;)
Haha! Thanks, im back in 1979 and im 16 years old ! Everything is GROOVY MAN ! Glad you liked it ! 😉👍
Blast to the past !! I am feeling grooy too actually. I really do, good choice on the black and white filter!
Haha! Just got back from out of town! Glad your feeling Groovy! Havent said or heard that saying in many years! Thanks again! Steem on ! 😉👍
Awesome , traveling is always fun! Yeah phrases come and go. That one isn't as popular as it used to be but all phrases make a comeback^_^ Steem on!
Entry Post
Thanks for the opportunity!
Way to go!
It is fun isn't it?
Thanks for the WILD entry!
Totally Original!!!!
Tons of fun. I got to practice my fire making skills if you know what I mean. I avoided just flipping the switch with a filter. Everything there was hand made from scratch, with the help of digital paint magic of course. I don't play around with too many photos so again yes, this was a lot of fun.
It looks great and I really enjoy all of it!
You've got some stuff competition, but we will see what happens.
Why did you set the world on fire @ballinconscious? Because I am young? Or maybe it's because I am a pyromaniac.
Great creation, Makes me feel like I am in a anime world ^_^
I read this, suddenly a song from Fallout 3 popped into my head. "I don't want to set the world on fire"...something like that. I have no clue who sang it though.
Haha I have actually never heard that song. But seeing this picture definitely makes me feel completely opposite of what that quote says :p
@nonameslefttouse ah - an abstract! one vote for this
Thank you! You've a new follower and received a couple of votes of your own.
@nonameslefttouse thank you!
In for a penny in for a pound,

Here's my @ballinconcsious entry for phase #2:
Good point, why stop there?
Also, if you make a post out of it, you might get more than the contest is worth anyway!
Hahaha! Here it is:
https://steemit.com/cannabis/@rebeccaryan/pepper-art-challenge-round-2
Great!
Thanks!
You've certainly captured the image well in a nice medium... marker art?
Almost looks like water-color paints, but I'll guess marker.
Yes Marker!!! Seriously, it was marker only because I don't eat any grains so I don't have any pasta in my house. Otherwise, it really would have been macaroni and stick glue!
At least Noodle art is still available as an option for others!
Great creation! You really captured the scene well! Love that way you made the dreads individually.
Gives me nostalgia of that moment, that felt like just yesterday (even though it wasn't). :p
I had a bit of trouble with the actual dreads themselves. I couldn't quite capture the whirl or roundness of them, so that makes it hard to tell that they're dreads. I'm glad you like it.
Mmm interesting because it looks like you succeeded in the end from my perspective.I can clearly tell that there dreads ^_^ If at first you don't succeed try, try again and it look like you did just that ;)
Well, thank you. I did ended up going over several of your dreads to darken them, thinking that it might offer some depth for effect. Then, well, I just let Blue Dream do its thing and went with the flow. LOL
MMmm yeah most likely that did help. Blue dream has got those magic powers, so it make sense ^_^
Do you really have dreads or are they part of your mask?
No it's all fake, It's just part of the mask ;)
Yay! thanks for all the support of those who voted for me and thanks for holding the competition @papa-pepper!
I really enjoyed myself while participating in this contest! I it was fun climbing up that dead broken tree branch and posing for the picture taken by @danilamarilu!
Fun Fact: I actually was wearing my steemit T-shirt and my steemfest scarf as a belt in this picture, yet my pose ironically completely blocks any of that from being seen:p
Haha LoLing so hard right now, this is so great. You never cease to surprise me @papa-pepper! I promise you I would have never ever guessed that my winning picture would become the next contest for round 2. Seeing this inspired me to make this meme.
P.S. I am now following all the people who made picture entries of my picture in this picture contest!
P.P.S. I will also be Resteeming all contest entry post that people post to their blog after entering here^_^
You are about to become a steemit celebrity my friend, plus, nice job winning multiple @papa-pepper contests.
Since you were the only one to guess that @puffin gif, I had to let you win that one.... and it was apparent for many reasons that your photo got this contest too, although the amount of really good entries was incredible!!!
Just keep watching as this contest builds, you are starting to pop up everywhere here on steemit!
Yes, I am already starting to see that now, what a surprise that you gave me :p Thanks, It wouldn't be possible if you didn't host so many, So thanks for making frequent contest!
Indeed, I Won by default:p Yay, I think it was the best out of all the pictures I took because of the pose!
I know, It's amazing how many good entries you get into your contests.
Yeah I am already starting to see that, I am really getting a good kick out of all the awesome creations off of my picture. Also anyone who make a post off of there contest entry I will resteem it on my blog ^_^
Cool, I can already see that some people will make more off of their entry posts than they will if they actually win the contest.... which is part of what I love the most!
GO STEEMIT!
Yeah, I am seeing the exact same thing. Pretty amazing , maybe I should make a contest entry myself:p I am loving this, every time I see a new entry I get a Really good laugh out of it! Steem On!
As guest judge you couldn't win, but it would be soooo cool to see your entry.
I say, if you're into it, do it!
Haha, great reply ! Love the meme ! Steem on ! And thanks for following !♨👍♨
Thanks, I thought the meme would fit this perfectly. Your welcome, Happy to be able to see your post in the future^_^
Great work honestly, this has turned into a snowball of awesomeness
Right! I never would have guessed there would be a round two of this contest, it has been a great surprise for me!
Hey there, I am going to put up a Meme of the Day featuring your photo! and linking back to this post and my artwork submission based on it -- have a look!
Awesome great post, Just saw it and commented on it! Gave me a good laugh.
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!
It encourages me when people tell me they get a laugh.... my memes don't get a lot of votes etc and I work hard on them with my limited talents LOL, so I love people getting a LOL.
Yay for confidence an encouragement!
I definitely did. It's fine, if at first you don't succeed try, try again! Who knows when something will blow up with attention ;)
LOL, my post did from about 90 mins ago, most votes I have ever gotten esp. in 2 hours or so but lol, look at the tiny payout. I just don't get that.

I lose...
You win...
Here is my tribute...
Cruel and unusual punishment, I'd say! lol
There's a blog post in there somewhere...
Macaroni art it is then!!!
I was hoping someone would Noodle their way into this contest!
Hahaha!
lol
I can be a tribal tree god^_^ First time I have had that as a nickname, I kinda like it ;)
I proclaim from this day forward, you will always be know as "the tribal tree god". TTTG for short, when fast typing is required. ;)
