Round two of Inuit Jargon’s First Annual Crayon Turkey Challenge.

Were you good enough for second place, or is your goose already cooked?
Were you too chicken to enter, or did your drawing just run a-fowl? Let’s talk turkey…

This piece expands on the theme by taking the standard turkey and accessorizing it. Extra points for being the only pirate themed entry.

After noticing the striking black on yellow composition and the whimsical pageantry of the feathers, it’s really the details that make the piece. I applaud the artist for not adhering to strict realism by giving his/her turkey a fade hair cut and a beak and waddle that look like lips.

The music notes flying at the turkey seem to be a direct parallel to the music Inuit Jargon and Morningbell played at that show. Great use of metaphor. Stunning composition and dynamic sense of movement.

Self-explanatory.

Check back next week for the final round!

        

…was a success!  We had a lot of fun celebrating their new cd with them, as well as 3 seasons of awesome with you!

Come out to the Orange and Brew on Monday night (3/5) to see the infamous Unofficial Inuit Jargon Cover Band!  The Shitty Beatles are also performing that night, so that should be fun, I mean, everyone likes the Beatles.

After almost four months, I’ve finally decided to put up some of the hand-turkeys from the Thanksgiving Pageant show. There were so many good ones, I thought about having a contest. This week, I’m going to put up three winners in two categories each: Honorable Mention and 2nd place.

Then, for the next week, my favorite three turkeys out of the 20+ submissions will be posted on our Myspace and will duke it out for 1st place supremacy. Whichever turkey gets the most votes in our Myspace message box or our comment section wins a free CD and more importantly bragging rights.

Welcome to the First Annual Inuit Jargon Crayon Turkey Challenge!

How will your turkey fair? Where is the turkey fair? You’ll just have to stay tuned and find out. Below are the honorable mentions:

Even though we ran out of construction paper, that didn’t deter people from ripping pages out of our mailing list to make Turkeys. Great use of color and good effort.

At first this one looks pretty standard, but then you realize that this turkey has at least twice as many feathers as all of the other submissions. The different feather colors create a stunning illusion of depth. Thanks Lindsay!

Unique.

Keep checking for the 2nd place winners in round two in the next few days.
