MARCH ART CHALLENGE
🕑 Added 2021-03-16 13:09:45 +0000 UTCMandatory "What is an art challenge?": Art challenges are a casual way for everyone to get involved in doing something creative, with no pressure or need to do a perfect job. It's not a contest or competition- everyone is welcome and all patrons receive the same rewards. Furthermore, it's not just open to artists, but to writers, video editors, sculptors or anyone with two hands and a creative thought in mind.

Hello all, and welcome to March. Yes, it's the start of March. No, it's not the middle of March. It can't be- it was Christmas last week.
Anyways, onto this month's challenge - which I'm totally publishing now, the start of this month of Spring - which totally asked for a flowery spring theme, inspired in the days getting longer and the flora blooming like the hope in our hearts. Except I just puked a little writing that and then reading it back to myself, so in a lurching plot twist, this month's theme is actually gonna be:
Extreme Expressions
This week I posed a question - what's my art missing? And the answer at large was "more expressions", followed by "go get some sleep". Looking back on it, they've got a point - I draw a lot of smug smirks and glowering scowls and as most of my work happens to be for you lovely folk, I blame you all for this and shall thus drag you on this journey of discovering what's beyond this horizon of perky characters with simpering smiles.
So to clarify- what is an extreme expression? It can be ecstatic joy, or unbridled fury, or profound sadness, or electric tension or - oh my - intense lust. Any expression but the casual cool and mysterious aloofness
that we have all misrepresented our stunted introversion as.
As you can tell, it's a pretty broad theme so do go wild with it. Literally. Make me feel my own feelings people.
