Creativity / Community Art
So recently we had our community art chalenges,which were awesome! (even though I only did 2 of them) I loved seeing everyone's art and it inspired me to do a couple. In our last thread a few users were talking about having an art thread, I thought I'd take the initiative and make it tonight, as Ive been feeling rather arty tonight! haha.
Links to our community challenges #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7
Without further ado, show us what You've been working on we'd love to see it.
I'm going to start off and post tonight's work. I was feeling frustrated, and for once felt like expressing it creatively. I just did a simple tree to get me back into painting as I haven't painted for years! Here's the result 🙂
That's SO FREAKING COOL @Bay52VU!!!! I love, love, love this! Not only is the idea great but it looks so good too!
This is an awesome thread, I love seeing everyone's art and how creative everyone is!!
I'd like to share mine here as well, the lighting is a bit bad though ^^;;
I like to draw with all kinds of different materials, but this is the first time that I've done watercolour... I'm not that great at watercolour yet, so if there's anyone with some advice on watercolour painting I'd love to hear from you ^^
Another this is that you use the colour and then you clean the brush and stroke down from the colour with just water so the colour goes down the water but fades. It's like the first except the colour goes first so you have more control over the way the colour goes.
I hope that made some sense. I learned a bit about watercolours last year 🙂
@DruidChild Thank you very much! ^^
@N1ghtW1ng Thanks for your tips! I hadn't thought of putting the water on the paper first and then adding in the colour, so I'll definitely give that a try next time 
Everyone has done such cool art 🙂
This is what I made today because I was not feeling great (pretty sure it doesn't violate guidelines? I'll delete it if it does though!)
This is what I got to do at work today, it's not quite finished but I'm fairly happy with it. I have the best job
@redhead that's so good, can't wait to see how it looks when you've put the finishing touches on it! 🙂
Awesome drawing @redhead! I really love how you've done the sky.
Thanks so much for sharing it with us. The people who will get to see it in the exhibition are lucky.
Oh hey guys!
I just wanted to show you all my almost finished blanket! It just needs the boarder / edging put on it.
@stonepixie I love it! So bright and colourful - perfect for spring weather 😄
I'd like to share this Lino Printing I made early last year. I unintelligently forgot to take a photo of the actual print but here's the etching I made. It's probably the piece of artwork that I am most proud of making.
I hope you guys like!
Very cool @winston_abdi! How do lino prints work? Do you just paint over the etching and press it on paper? How do you stop the paint from going in the cut-out bits?
