A gentle reminder folks...
There are size limits to submitted photos. It's in the rules, lower right sidebar in purple. Please don't exceed 1000 pixels on the widest side and please keep the resolution to 72. Many submissions so far this month have had to be resized, which makes the simple task of posting them onto the blog about twice as long. Also, please include full information with each submission, i.e. name and blog/website. Thanks for your participation!

Our January paintout is
Corsica.
Open for participation from
January 1st till January 31st.
View Larger Map
You'll find an interactive map of the island of Corsica above, though you can't access the little yellow pegman from that map. Use the link below it "View Larger Map", and the map will appear on your monitor; drag the little Yellow Man onto the map, step onto Corsica, and start exploring. Find an interesting subject/area. Change it all you want. Or paint it straight up as you see it. Instructions are in the sidebar to the right. Any questions, ask 'em in the comments or email me directly.
Thanks to Google, as they have given their permission for artists to use Street View as a reference for paintings that can then be sold without fear of copyright infringement.
Thank you to the Google Maps Team, the Google Street View Team, and all those involved. And thank you, artists, for participating.
Remember, participation is open to all levels of artistic ability.
NOW LET'S HAVE SOME FUN!

Happy New Year everyone! I'd like to thank everyone for participating in the Virtual Paintout over the last year. I hope you enjoy Corsica this month.
Bill
Thank you, Bill!
Thank you, Google!
What a pleasure to participate in the Virtual Paintout!
Corsica, here I come...
Thank you Bill for putting on this show. It has been a real pleasure for me and I know for others too. Happy New Year buddy, to you and yours. Gary
Happy New Year, Bill. Thank you for choosing another warm spot. We're in the full grip of winter here.
Corsica...here I come - paint box and brushes in tow...can't wait to see what comes out from everyone.
HAppy 2010, Bill!!
Corsica! Wow!! Here we go!!
Thanks a lot for this nice "trip"!!
Murilo
Thanks again everyone. I've set up a Facebook Fan Page for the Virtual Paintout. Nothing will change in the project. It all takes place here as always. But I thought I'd share the great artwork with more people through Facebook. I'm not putting names, just uploading pics. Is this okay with everyone? If not I can yank the page down as fast as I put it up. Just thought more exposure might be good for everyone involved. Let me know your thoughts.
I have yet to join Facebook, and don't expect to, but showing off the artwork sounds like a good deal! :)
awesome Idea, can't wait to get started!!!!
Awesome Idea!!!! Can't wait to get started!!
Awesome Idea!! Can't wait to get started!
Thanks for coming up with a wonderful idea! This was my first entry... Looking forward to future participation.
What a fantastically original idea! I can't wait to try this out. I've never painted a street scene or landscape so it will be quite a challenge. Do you have to include the photograph with the painting when emailing to you?
Hi Bill - I've got a post about your use of Streetview on my new 'The Art of the Landscape' blog today
See Google Street View and The Virtual Paint Out
Corsica has been one of my favorite destinations so far. Thank you Bill.
How fun that you posted Peter Hobden and my paintings of the same spot (Port Centuri) but VERY different painting right next to each other!
Hi, Bill,
Nice to find you and this fun project online. Many thanks for your effort.
Attention: Shanna Cole
Admired your work. Just curious are you related to James Cole of Sante Lucie de Porto Vecchio? My e-mail is tombstonejohnstone@gmail.com.
Virtual paintout is a very interesting project... I have just picked this blog looking for Corsican paintings
