Admit it! We all do it. There’s a lot of junk art sites online. THEY ONLY WANT OUR MONEY!!! We put our link on them, hope it will add to our traffic and never go the site again. There’s at least 100 artists linked to the Challenge like that.
You get my reminders twice a month. I’m sure many of you have them sent directly to your junk mail folder.
(No worries. I do the same with a 90% of what I get. ) But I’d like to tell you what my site is -if you have a minute?
If you're linked to me- you owe me that! We don’t try to teach you anything on The Artist Challenge. You’re already a pro and certainly don’t need our input. We don’t demand anything of you. We’re artist too and we hate that as much as you do!I’ve been a professional artist for 30 years. When I first started doing the Challenges with my friend - I was like
…“Okay, I’ll try it -just to placate you!“ Oddly, and in short order- I felt something like an explosion go off in my brain.
To be completely honest with you, I equated the experience tantamount to an intense exercise class that I was finally OUTSTANDING IN for the first time in my life!
It was my forte and I was a creative storm to be reckoned with!
It’s this simple:
As artists our biggest enemy is block. We exhaust an idea/concept /series and then flounder trying to find the next thing to get us inspired/ motivated. We look at everything and ANYTHING just preying we’ll find something!
This I can promise you- The Challenges bring you out of the block quicker than anything you’ll find. We simply give you a subject- an exercise to fill your brains,
if only for the interim. You can do the theme in any way you choose and in any medium. The party favor? Your old creative warehouse door opens and you’ll be off and running again like you never expected!
.
We have two themes a month. One is free and one pays the light bill. ($7) . You choose what works for you. Three’s no subscription, pressure or obligation to do every theme.
Try it. Placate me. I dare you. Vikki North
