 by KevinFreitas on 8/26/2010 @ 8:59pm | This week's prize for first place is a $50 gift certificate to Club Biella Day Spa & Sublime Salon. Thanks for the generous sponsorship and I'd suggest a chalk theme centering on "beauty" (inner, outer, or otherwise)
See everyone at the park! |
 by NineInchNachos on 8/26/2010 @ 10:15pm | Thanks Kevin! Also Andrea was asking about how to pick up her winnings from last week..?

 |
 by Katrina on 8/27/2010 @ 2:35pm | I vote Brian |
 by jamesstoweart on 8/27/2010 @ 2:41pm | Jinxmedic... I would happily endorse you changing your vote from me to Thorax's tribute to his Mother. |
by Lucki13 on 8/27/2010 @ 2:41pm | I vote caddy...aka Brian! |
by thermonucfam on 8/27/2010 @ 2:43pm | I vote for Thorax |
by NineInchNachos on 8/27/2010 @ 2:45pm | I vote for thorax because his chalk reminds me of the st. peters mother-ship church symbol..
 |
 by Mandiferous on 8/27/2010 @ 2:56pm | I vote for Monlux. |
by The Jinxmedic on 8/27/2010 @ 2:59pm | Odd Claws says I may change my vote. Therefore, I now vote for Thorax. It is a wonderful tribute; well done, sir. |
 by Leischen on 8/27/2010 @ 3:41pm | Stowe did a really great job capturing the theme. I vote Stowe. But I also really like Mark's version of beautiful as well. Nice work! |
by Adam the Alien on 8/27/2010 @ 4:51pm | I vote for Raven & Poppy. Love the pandas! |
 by crockawaddy on 8/27/2010 @ 4:52pm | Love the fins on that beautiful automobile. My vote goes to Brian. |
 by Mark Monlux on 8/27/2010 @ 4:58pm | I'm lovin' Brian's fin and I think Thorax did a great tribute to his mother. But, the last three weeks has been grueling for my wife. I would love to treat her to a trip to the Spa. A vote for "Frighteningly Beautiful Tiki" is a vote for my sweetie to have a special day. I vote for the Tiki. And if we were voting for scarecrows, RR's would win hands down. |
by L.S.Erhardt on 8/27/2010 @ 5:21pm | I dig Brian's use of my previous Mucha-inspired piece.
However, I vote for the tribute to my mom. Take your lessons from those who have passed: My mom was a frustrated artist who never had the gumption to push herself as hard as she could. She was incredibly talented and could have been a success had she given it her all. I think we artists ought to remember that. Even if you don't make it "big", we owe it to ourselves to give it 100%. |
 by Fraz on 8/27/2010 @ 5:44pm | I vote for poppy and raven's panda spa |
 by debivans on 8/27/2010 @ 5:51pm | Looks like my short lived Frost Park Chalk career has come to an end due to the me being employed thing. F.P. Chalk Off held the #1 spot in my heart for most funnest thing to do in any given week and introduced me to a bunch of cool cartooning talons. Maybe I will throw down some chalk on a Thurs night just for fun.
Great pieces this week. RR's pachyderm is cute, Stowe's mirror is a great use of the medium's cloudy quality, Andrea's rocket has a lot of rocketsauce, Brian's is cool-I love the post-impressionistic sky, Monlux tiki be BRIGHT, and I really love the moon with a smudge by one of the TAM students. My VOTE goes to Thorax's tribute. It really does elicit an emotional response that I cannot deny. |
 by roxainaboxa on 8/27/2010 @ 7:14pm | I vote for Stowe! |
 by SheLives on 8/27/2010 @ 10:06pm | I vote Monlux. Anyone willing to go all out on his "wife" gets my vote. |
 by ALT on 8/28/2010 @ 8:36am | Darn it I missed the polls! It was just one thing after the other yesterday. Immediately after cleaning up the classroom I went home to spend several hours preparing for an engagement that ultimately did not end until 1:00 AM when I was socked in the face by a stormtrooper. Several times.
It's a tough call, but I think I would have voted for Stowe's Magic Mirror. I'm sorry if you don't win that mudpack, dude. :( |
by ALT on 8/28/2010 @ 8:39am | RxR, that Zombie Robot Scarecrow of yours and Max's is kick-ass. :D |
 by FireFlyNexes on 8/28/2010 @ 10:31am | Blast I missed the chalk off and the voting because I was at work all day. I would have voted for Andrea though. |
by NineInchNachos on 8/28/2010 @ 9:06pm | 
"Nuuugggghhhhhh*BZZZ*10010010101010*BZZ*hhhhhhghghg" ROBOT ZOMBIE SCARECROW SAYS THANKS! |
 by smeall on 8/28/2010 @ 10:42pm | i am too late to vote. also too lazy to count, who won? |
by NineInchNachos on 8/28/2010 @ 10:49pm | all the official ballot counters are on vacation. boo! |
by ALT on 8/29/2010 @ 8:07am | Not the official tally, but here are the numbers I came up with:
Thorax - 5 Monlux - 3 Brian - 3 Raven and Poppy - 3 Stowe - 2 Looking through all the entries once again, I think I would have pulled a Jinxmedic and changed my vote to Thorax. That really was a great tribute. Congratulations Thorax O'Tool! |
by L.S.Erhardt on 8/31/2010 @ 1:03pm | Nice!
Kind of a cool prize. I can finally be pretty again! Where can I acquire this gift certificate? |
 by acapere on 8/31/2010 @ 2:57pm | You are always pretty, Thorax! |
by The Jinxmedic on 8/31/2010 @ 3:22pm | "Pulled a Jinxmedic". Heh. |
by KevinFreitas on 9/1/2010 @ 8:49am | I have the gift cert for you Thorax. If you'd like it before Frost Park this Friday let me know. Otherwise, I'll have it for you then.
Congrats! |
by L.S.Erhardt on 9/1/2010 @ 3:37pm | I have to work this Friday, and as such will be unable to attend.
So either next Friday or perhaps show up at Amocat or the Broadway Farmer's market tomorrow? You know my email address... |
