Artists, grab your drawing tools! North of [u]Lawride Town [/u], the latest town that we\'ve featured on our [u]Tour of Explora [/u] for Townseek, there\'s a Happy Tree landmark that pays homage to a well-known, beloved painter. Those who\'ve travelled far on our demo might have noticed already that the tree\'s paintings and art change over time as you explore around. You might have spotted a friendly yellow labrador, our mascot, and even the cover art of the game itself. What\'s going on there?

Turns out the paintings do change! Our team has drawn a handful of different paintings which change as you pass by every few minutes. We designed it as a fun easter egg, with canvas with different artworks, referring to the game, our characters, and various things from our past and present. However, like everything else in Townseek, there could always be more canvas being drawn by the happy tree.

That\'s where you come in! If you\'re an artist or have a knack for digital artwork, we want to feature some of your art on the Happy Tree canvas! [u]We\'ve prepared a template for you to draw over on our Discord Server! [/u] Draw something on the small template, and submit it on the townseek-your-art-in-game channel, and we\'ll add it to the game!

You can draw anything you\'d like! It can be original characters, your sonas, something you\'ve got close to you, a landscape of your country, your pets, or anything that comes to mind! Don\'t worry if you don\'t nail the Townseek style perfectly. It\'s not the easiest style to replicate! Once you submit your art to our [u]Discord Server [/u], we\'ll adjust it on our end. We\'ll pass it by you to make sure it\'s ready to add into the game, including making sure it fits the game\'s palette, art style, etc. The template and the assets themselves are small, but limitation often leads to creativity!

There\'s only two guidelines that we\'ve to ask you to follow. The first is that you can\'t draw something that doesn\'t belong to you. You can\'t draw, for example, a popular mascot from another videogame franchise. The second is that all art must be generally acceptable for everyone, meaning we can\'t accept suggestive art, not-safe-for-work pieces, or artwork featuring divisive or controversial content. If the artwork wouldnt fit Explora or the tone of the game, it wont make it in. Well evaluate each piece and provide clarification case-by-case if necessary.

As examples, here\'s some examples that were drawn by our artist and by our community manager that have been turned into canvas already!

Artwork submissions are open until the 26th of October! Please make sure to submit them over on the channel on our server. No other channels or socials are applicable.

Just like the pets contest, if you\'re not an artist either, there\'ll be more Townseek quests and contests! We\'ll continue providing fun activities that people can participate in, both for things inside and outside the game in the future. For now, look forward to continuing our Tour of Explora, as we head into the adorable bunny-hopping town at Burrowburg!

Well then, we look forward to seeing your artwork and what you draw! Cheers!
