June Challenge! 🌙 Paint Your Wildest Dream
This month we’re leaving reality behind. Flying whales? Purple apples floating through space? A café on the moon? Perfect. If you can dream it, you can paint it. Post your entries below and let’s see where our imaginations take us. 🚀🎨✨ How it works 🎨 Create as many artworks as you like throughout the month. 📸 Post your entries in the comments below this challenge. 🎭 Any medium is welcome: - Oil - Acrylic - Watercolor - Pastel - Mixed media - Digital art - Sketches 💡 Feel free to experiment, be weird, be poetic, be playful. Challenge Rules 1. All artwork must be created by you 2. You can enter as many pieces as you want. 3. Tell us a little about the dream or idea behind your artwork (optional but encouraged). 4. Have fun and encourage fellow artists along the way. 5. Invite friends that would enjoy this too. 6. Dateline 30 June. At the End of the Month 🏆 We’ll choose: 🥇 Dream Master Award 🥈 Most Original Dream 🥉 Community Favorite No prizes. Just glory, bragging rights, and a spotlight in the community. 😄 Your First Prompt Before you start painting, answer this: If there were no limits, what would your dream world look like? Now grab your brushes and start dreaming. 🌙✨

Challenge! Show Up & Create
Most artists don’t fail because of talent. They disappear. So let’s fix that. New challenge: Show Up & Create → 3x per week→ for 30 days→ post whatever you made (finished or messy) Rules: - No perfection - No overthinking - Just proof you showed up - Miss a day? Don’t quit. Just continue. This is about becoming someone who creates. Not someone who waits. I’m in too. Who’s joining?

@Phill Hatton I love the performer! Very good sketches! I wish I could level that. Do you show your work elsewhere? (Instagram or ?) As I also like drawing I’m just curious. 👀

@Phill Hatton no art yet Phill. Just family pictures. I used to have a shop and had a professional insta. Have yet to find the courage to create a insta for my ‘art’.
🎙️ We’re starting a podcast! — and we need you.
Hi Messy Art Squat! @artbyrebeccaknoerr and I are doing this thing. 🎉 We are starting a podcast. For artists who color outside the lines, start over, make messes, and keep going anyway. 🎨 But first — what should we call it? And what do you actually want to hear us talk about? Pitch us your topics, your burning questions, your “I wish someone would just talk about THIS” moments. We’re listening. Literally. 🎧👇

@Jen Bolton I think this is so ‘empowering’ and a really good topic!

I would like to feel ‘connected’ and empowered by hearing other artist’s stories. How they get inspired; what their day looks like; how they juggle an artist’s life with other ‘roles’ f.e. Family/work; how do they organise their workspace (atelier) what is their lifestyle like? What enhances the artist mood… When can you call yourself an artist? How does family respond to their need for ‘isolation’ and ‘creating’? Are there retreats they join?

@Ozge Gul oh that looks really nice and resembling the original dress! The girl of the painting looks more vulnerable to me… I think you may call yourself a real artist! 👩‍🎨🎨❤️
Advice on architecture drawing drills?
Hello, painting of Stockholm to get some attention. Does anyone have tips for drawing drills for buildings? Or YouTube accounts? I like drawing buildings but have no training whatsoever in perspective and all the rest 😅. Sam

Samantha, I am jealous of your location! I think Stockholm gives a lot of architectural inspiration! You can try to devide your paper in to ‘sections’ / quarters. Then you need to fix on one point of your subject and follow the direction from your sitting point to that point. You use a pencil and your eyes and the pencil is your tool to find the direction. It’s one of the most difficult things to learn but you can start slow with putting those lines on your paper and then filling in these lines (for example upper line and under line of a street view) diagonally (are the horizontal lines) and then fitting in the vertical lines of the building… It takes a lot of practise. You could begin from a photo that you devide in lines. Enlarge the picture/photo and draw focal lines from a point. Best diagonal lines. The focal point can be somewhere outside the paper. But normally all lines go to the same point. Succes! 🍀
