Week 3 • March Art Madness
State of the Arts Steemit Promotion Contest
Week 3
March is halfway over and March Art Madness is just beginning! We have seen some incredible creativity throughout the month on the curation trail #stateofthearts and have seen an increase in involvement within the community. We have also had many comments and posts from brand new steemit users who came from other platforms because of the contest!
The involvement of the artists on Steemit has been great, and we have seen a lot of success from the initiative already in exposing steemit to the outside and bringing in new members. Illustrations currently make up over 80% of the submissions for the contest! We are looking to reach out and get more submissions from you, the photographers, videographers, musicians, other creatives, etc.
Our goal for the March Art Madness contest is 3 main things
- Bring new users and creatives to Steemit by sharing Steemit on other forms of social media
- Expand the art/creative community on Steemit
- Create a fun contest for artists and creatives to get excited and involved in Steemit
Its not to late! Get involved! Get stoked! Get creative!
We are still accepting all submissions! We are looking for all forms of artwork, illustrations, photography, videography, music, etc. Have fun, be creative, and go out and use your talents to share Steemit!

What a lovely contest idea. Here is a link to my entry for this month. I am a videographer/freelance editor looking to inspire musicians on steemit to create their own visuals.
I posted it on my social media page, and have had a couple of people message me and tell me they had submitted to steemit and are wawaiting approval :)

Your post is absolutely amazing...
I cannot believe how thorough it is, you have covered every single visual angle one could ever consider!
You really know your stuff, I particularly loved the inclusion of video examples to illustrate the concepts you were describing.
And I am STILL listening to "undercover hippy, boyfriend" as I type this. Thankyou for an awesome post and an awesome soundtrack as I create this reply.
Best of luck, hope your journey is EPIC,stunning and full of good things :)
Thanks for the kind words this has really made my day.
I'm glad you liked it and the examples! it's such a good song! and a funny story on how i rediscovered it, their glasto pass was taped to a car at work so i googled them and refound this song after many years ago.
I'm really glad my post was useful thanks so much :D
You are more than welcome, and if I indeed made your day...Then you indeed have made my mine by telling me that, Good luck and take great care.
Happy new week for Monday :)
Thank you @stevenwood
👍
Hello can you clarify should the subject/theme of the artwork be Steemit? i.e. an illustratoin or something about Steemit? or can it be anything. Thank you!
Submissions can be anything, the theme of the contest is share steemit! Feel free to submit free form.
Thank you so much!
This article is very interesting to read...
I just love it, and I'll wait for the next article..👍

Wow, such an unusual entry, has a very, nice, cool vibe.
Well done, I especially liked the reverbish awesomeness, I should mention right about now, that I have a tendency to make up annoying words.
Good luck and I hope your journey is EPIC :)
Thanks, appreciate the made up words
Such an awesome contest! Really love how all these art forms come together in one amazing competition. Liked & resteemed and also shared on our Twitter profile:
We'd like to submit our track Lunatics for consideration: https://steemit.com/dsound/@spawnband/20180319t164005014z-march-art-madness--lunatics-by-spawn
It's a track about lunatics taking over. Perfect for this March Madness ;)
