Heyho everyone! My cold seems to be gone, the temperature has dropped to 30°C/~86°F, and my brain is able to work properly again. 😂 Thanks again for all your well wishes! ❤️ Anyhow, back to business… 😇 Mark your calendars for next Friday! I’ll host our next live session and show you my way of shading. A few of you said you’d like to understand the process a bit better, and I’m happy to listen. When: Friday, July 3rd, 5pm CEST / 4pm UK / 11am ET / 8am PDT / 8:30pm IST Where: https://www.skool.com/live/4RwFFydhGtk (All events are always marked in the Calendar tab, just fyi.) This session is open for all members to attend live. I’m planning to record it, too — fingers crossed I’ll get the hang of the tech 😇 — and turn it into a Level 3 Reward that will be available in the Classroom later. This session will definitely be the highlight of my day! („highlight“ - as in shading, you get it? Nevermind… 🤪😂😇) See you Friday! ❤️

Hey everyone and happy Monday! It's time to announce the new prompt for this week, and guess what? My wonderful intern @Peter Schneider (aka husband) has made something for me! He has developed a Drawing Prompt Generator iOS app for me, how cool is that?! From now on we will be using the app to generate our weekly prompts, so even I don't have to sweat and think of something we could draw. 😇 And the best part, you can even choose the challenge level! Relaxed: 1 prompt (a simple "what" --> green) Easy: 2 prompts (a "what" and a "where" --> pink) Medium: 3 prompts (a "what", a "where", and a "mood"! --> yellow) Full wonky chaos: 4 prompts ("what", "where", "mood", AND color suggestion! 😇 --> red) You can interpret them however you like. Digital, traditional, quick sketch, finished illustration, tiny doodle, dramatic masterpiece, suspicious little blob with personality — all welcome. The goal is not to make something perfect. The goal is to show up, play a little and see where the prompts take you. Feel free to share your sketch or finished piece in the community whenever you’re ready. I can’t wait to see what you make! Jutta <3 PS: As we progress with our app I might need a few of you who would like to test the app on their iPhones/iPads. Let me know if you're interested! ✨

Welcome, lovely artists, I’m so happy you’re here! ❤️ The Wonky Art Society is a low-pressure space for digital artists, Procreate lovers and creative humans who want to draw more, practice with joy and grow their skills without perfectionism ruining all the fun. To get things started, I’d love to know a little bit about you. Introduce yourself in the comments and tell us: 1. Where are you from? 2. Are you more of a digital artist, traditional artist, or happily chaotic mix of both? 3. What would you love to get out of this community? And lastly (and that, to me, is the most fun part) Tell us one of your weirdest quirks! 😇 I can’t wait to make art with you, the low-pressure way. Let me start: 1. I'm Jutta, artist and educator based in Düsseldorf, Germany. 2. I'm mostly a digital artist (no mess, ya know, no setting up a gazillion of tools and cleaning brushes and stuff 😇) but I also love drawing with alcohol & acrylic markers. 3. I want to share my philosophy "Getting good at art-making should not feel hard. Practice is key of course but you can only keep a sustainable art-making habit when you actually love what you're doing." I would like to meet cool artsy people and spend time with them talking about the stuff we all love. And my weirdest quirk: I love watching my Kitchen Aid mix ingredients into a nice and smooth dough. So satisfying.
