The voting deadline is over. We have 5 votes and a tie.

First off: thank you participants, for joining the competition and submitting a diverse set of entries. And thank you voters, because this wouldn't have been a competition if you wouldn't have taken the time to vote for your favourite entry, and your kind words about the entries are undoubtedly appreciated by the artists. 

Moving on to the results:

[b]Rainy Ocean[/b] and [b]Rainy Cloud[/b] both have 2 votes, which means that for the first time since I started with this I will add a tie-breaker vote. And it is a difficult decision because both are good pieces for different reasons. 

With 3 votes the winner of this competition will be: [b]Rainy Ocean[/b]! 
I liked the desolate feeling it gave me and it's a piece I can just keep looking at. 

The well-deserved runner-up is [b]Rainy Cloud[/b], with the happiness and sadness, and the lovely use of colours. Honestly, you did a great job.

In January there will be a new Art Contest. I hope to see you all again, and maybe we'll even get a few more involved.
