EDIT MY ART 2025.03 – UNDERGROUND (Optional) Submissions accepted March 1-15, 2025.

https://fineartamerica.com/contests/3-edit-my-art-2025.html?tab=overview

About the Theme: UNDERGROUND (THEME Optional)
UNDERGROUND can be construed with many meanings. It can be beneath the surface of the earth, or into hiding or secret operation. It can be a subterranean space or channel, an UNDERGROUND city railway system, a movement or group organized in strict secrecy among citizens especially in an occupied country for maintaining communications, popular solidarity, and concerted resistive action pending liberation. Perhaps even a clandestine conspiratorial organization set up for revolutionary or other disruptive purposes especially against a civil order. It could be an unofficial, unsanctioned, or illegal but informal movement or group (especially, as in usually avant-garde group or movement that functions outside the establishment).
So, for this contest, use your imagination to illustrate anything related to being, growing, operating, or situated below the surface of the ground; conducted by secret means; existing outside the establishment (as in the UNDERGROUND economy, UNDERGROUND movies, UNDERGROUND railroad, etc)

Also, you can use an underground image to bring things to the surface, or you can use surface images to bury something.
Maybe you can think of other UNDERGROUND things.

My warmest Gratitude and Congratulations to our monthly group logo winners.
Thank you all for granting permission to use your stunning images for the monthly group logos.

Please be aware that I change images as scheduled, but there is a lag in the system. New logos can be seen by clicking on the group, but may take some time before being seen passively. Latent images may linger; so, actual display time frames vary and are beyond my control.

This group was started on June 30th, 2022.
