Please note this was for June 2009 tickets and this competition is therefore closed.
Yes that right there’s a competition over at the facebook page run by Abeo:
http://www.facebook.com/DerrenBrown
Send your entries here. Again you can enter as many times as you like although this time it’s a little harder. We’re not so concerned if your not a fantastic artist/photoshop guru (like the one above from 6yr old Sarah) as it’s ideas that will win us over. However if you enter a stunning piece of artwork (that is your own!!!) that will impress us too.
Get your crayola out and good luck.
PD+Abeo.

Haha
HahahahahahaHAHAHA
Can I enter this even though being in Canada disqualifies me from winning? I really want to spend too much time making MS Paint zombies or something.
good luck.
Whaaaaaaat!
I’m not looking that great in that pic! hah
ooh you look a right pig!
Anyone can enter for the fun of it – if you win and you can’t make it I will send you an A3 DB artwork print.
Oh sweet. Somehow I don’t think I will be winning, but you better believe I am sending you specially-drawn pictures.
@Phillis
Yea but look at you, dressing it up with a crown on and perfectly positioned to look up Derrens skirt, they got you just right ;P
Hi, does it have to be a ‘still, non-moving’ picture or can it be moving graphics? =)
Phillis is giving people the finger in that picture
@Georgina
Any kind of visual that you like
ok i’m going to enter now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ooh fun, this has given me something to (attempt to) do, instead of spending too much time on the net.
It’s unfortunate when you choose to push the envelope from the healthy “religion” conversation / dialogue to the insulting. A ton of knowledgeable Christian, and agnostics read this blog, and when you post something like this… it becomes less about the very thing that we all deem most important. Sad day at the Derren Brown blog. Very sad day. Not something I would expect from the respect that had been granted to opposing worldviews.
lol I already drew something and gave it to Derren as a present when he was at Glasgow :s
Meh… I’ll think of something else to draw hopefully… there ought to be plenty of ideas for a crazy mind control grandmaster and his followers of the kind akjdfzzz*message intercept**** WHO ARE WORKING FOR HIM VERY WILLINGLY.
Jim: What the hell (pardon) are you on about? It’s just a competition to draw Coops something sweet for his birthday. So Phillis adapted a Christmas card… big deal. I don’t see your big evil insult to all Christianity here, frankly.
Anyway, I love this competition, though I’m not sure whether or not to enter… one, I already have tickets for the day before, so I should probably leave the competition to those who have no tickets, and two, when I draw or collage something up for my friends’ birthdays, I usually feature stuff they like… I don’t know enough about Coops to do that, so it’s kinda hard to find inspiration.
)
Anybody have some facts I could use? I’d still like to enter just for the fun of it (and, frankly, just because I like making people birthday cards…
I wish I was creative
You wouldn’t be lying there Jim? eh? c’mon be honest!
Hmm…wonder who drew that piccie
A 6 year old called Mr Coops “baby bitch”!?
Is it wrong to find that rather amusing?
I do like the depiction of Derren, I guess it depends on your perspective of things
I’d say he’s more a ‘Crowley’ than an ‘Aziraphale’, although he does love his books.
Poor Abeo! The only one of the crew that’s not been given humanoid form… children can be so cruel. They also have an amazingly good aim! Haha.
I like the fact that the halo is clearly held up with a stick.
Entered yesterday, and am very glad to read that you aren’t judging by peoples photoshopping skills as mine are obviously non-exhistant!
Yay! to an A3 print, I may have to submit another one.
xx
The use of the word bitch by a six year old is revolting GET IT OFF
Well, that is if a six year old did actually draw it Magnus.
Personally I (older than 20, younger than 30) would have prefered to use the phrase “Mr Poopypants!”
But then I can be very innocent in my insults sometimes
SGC: At first glance I wondered why Derren was balancing a toilet brush on his head
(not mocking the drawing skills… it’s better than I could do 
)
Sorry to ramble on… but I would also like to point out that (to me) it looks highly plausable that the entire “Happy birthday baby bitch” text was not actually done in crayon like the names by the people.
It’s darker and thicker, plus doesn’t seem to have any ‘fade’ through differing pressures.
I could be completely wrong but I’d say:
——————————————————
Picture + crew names (possibly) done with crayon by child.
“Happy birthday…etc.” done in a paint type program with a paintbrush tool.
So yeah… Like I say, I could be wrong (bound to happen one day, haha), be interesting to know wouldn’t it
Peace People! (Shhh)
Who are Sarah’s parents … they must be pretty screwed up … I mean .. the cross on the right side?
Poor Sarah … or is the one who wrote the names that is .. erm .. having a weird world vision? We probably need to see it not as symbolic as Sarah drew it but see the evil twist it now has gotten now that the names have been written down there ……
I’ll check in my toolkit if the artist-section is back on track yet to serve the world … enlighten it … endemon it if you wish (my .. oops .. your wish is my command … (commerce is my middle name, what you want is what you get .. even if you didn’t know yet ..).
Okay … crayons .. or better said .. potloden … i prefer .. my toes .. I’m a toe artist …
Sent my drawing.
Please people – it WAS NOT done by a 6 yr old – it’s a joke. The Sarah Palin support group can go home now.
Ha ha… I kind of wish it was done by a 6 year old (though it was clearly a joke) …. I mean really, some slight over reation even if it was???
Maybe they keep a 6 year old in the cellar just for drawings like this, and beat her regularly.
Sorry guys…
Although I don’t believe I had any part of the over-reaction, I do appear to have been the first person to bring up the text along with the ‘supposed’ age of the artist.
(Oh look… there’s a can of worms. What should I do with it?
)
That said, I did try to bring some logical reasoning back to this thread after seeing the later posts made.
It wasn’t deliberate… promise
Peace People
)
(and may the little lord Coops sleep peaceful in his manger tonight
I’m having a slight problem .. how to get it there. You still work with digital systems from what I get here and I work plainly cellular systems. Do you have a synapse transfer upload option there?
I guess not.
Oh, wait .. I’ll signal it to someone and he/she will enter it the way you state here. It’s not important that my name will not be credited, nor that I get the tickets, it’s after all .. all about my art .. Coops wont mind. He’ll recognize my touch to it.
Okay, we\’ve just sent a couple of entries in….mostly to amuse ourselves.
Hope you enjoy them folks, we laughed a lot with the parrot one.
K&M
Unfortunately I have no artistic talent whatsoever (and am far to lazy at the moment to think up anything creative!!) … but good luck to all,
Will you post the entries so we can have a look-see at what people came up with????
Has anyone thought that this picture from “Sarah” may have been put on here deliberately to cause contraversy and that Derren is playing a MIND GAME with us? If he has then well done Derren. WE love your liitle ways! x
When will this week’s competition details be put up? =)
hmmm i’m in… maybe some inspration from the film Gozu….
Msg from Abeo: please note this is a competition from last year for June 2009 tickets and the competition is therefore closed.
