…shouted the pilgrim as he stood ankle deep in a flowing creek gazing at a gold nugget held firmly between his fingers which not a few seconds before was picked from his gold pan. His mate came rushing across the creek faster than anything describable. Their massive grins could be seen through their dirt ridden, bushy beards. Looking into each other’s eyes not saying a word they knew what the other was thinking. As if it was planned, both pilgrims grabbed their pans and frantically scavenged the creek bed pulling up gold piece after gold piece only stopping to take a drink. When the two scruffy men wore out they looked at each other, they knew they were onto something. They knew this was the start of something big! Something called a gold rush.

That’s right ladles and jellyspoons, this competition’s theme is GOLD RUSH

My first attempt, I drew inspiration from a quote and drew my picture based on that, trying to give it a painting like feel. It's not great.

Also, I realise it doesn't have my name on it. I will edit it to include my name and then insert with with my name attached.

The image is now attached with my name.

I did leave this competition open for an extra day and we did get one more entrant but I don't think I'll make a poll for this one. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for entering.
