This is how I got on in July - personal art challenge results
Not gonna lie - this was harder than I thought it would be!
But I am REALLY proud that I found time to persevere and I really love my attempt so far of the Cézanne!
What do you think?

I need a less pressured challenge this month... 😍
Просмотров 708День назад
This is the final month working on my 'big project' so I decided to be kind to myself, and set myself a fun but non-pressured art challenge for August. It helps that I am not traveling at all this month, so I feel free to get my 'liquidy' art materials out and have a good play. It may be a disaster, but I'm excited to stick paper to my board and just have fun with zero pressure on myself. Thank...

And good luck getting through this month, my friend.

    That sounds like such a fun challenge! I need ideas like that (with the supplies I have) for crazy-work times when I just do not have the time/energy to devote to art.

    I think I’d pick either the inktense or neocolor ii if you need to reduce load. I’d leave the water soluble markers and pencils behind, and pick just 2 graphite pencils, 2 line art pens and take the big blue Molotov. I like to take a sketchbook and some loose papers on a clip board rather than 4 sketchbooks. Cool pencil roll. It’s nice to see “me-made” art tools. Sometimes I feel like everyone on RUclips has a Sendak roll. Good luck. It’s good to find a group of like minded people to connect with. Hope you have fun.

    Hope everything went well Evie , the amount of Art materials you’ve packed ready is really good for 5 hours , don’t worry xx . I’ve got 2 sets of the caran d’ache museum aquarelle watercolour pencils , marine & landscape and I really love them , I’ve been wanting them for almost 2 years and I finally have some of them , both sets were bargains as well . Xx

      Hey Kerry! It was great fun, thank you! And I did end up using quite a bit of what I took with me, so that felt good. 😎 Funny thing, the two sets you have are the ones I was looking at, but they were so prices, I decided to just grab a couple open stock first.. maybe Christmas this year someone will treat me! 😍 I'm glad that you're enjoying them!

    Yeah.... ! I just went away fo two weeks and brought one 12 x 12 art creations sketch book and a set of micron pens. I stopped on Day 2 and bought a ton of stuff in a French art supply shop but decided not to open the package once it was packed up!!!! I spent the two weeks on the 12 x 12 with the pens. Illustrated the whole trip. Very funny. It was a test. Usually I take 2 paper blocks, and 3 art supplies... for a "normal" journal. Have fun and curious what you will do with what.

      If it fits in your bag and you are willing to carry it around, I'd like to call it coming prepared instead of over packing. I'd like it if you could get back to us on your experience on meeting up with the group and tell us if you feel you took too many supplies.

    I hope you have a great time! I’m definitely an introvert and would be very nervous as well. Hopefully your nerves ease as soon as you get there and you’ll love it, the ‘before’ is always the worst 😅. Can’t believe how much you can put in the Peg & Awl case. Enjoyed seeing all your cases and supplies for the day. The tool roll bag is LOVELY!! Have fun!!!
