Wonderfuls! October approaches and I'm thinking about art challenges.
For folks who haven't heard of it, Inktober is a really popular challenge where artists take a prompt list, and use one word each day to make an art piece every day for the month of October. It's a great way to build a more consistent creative practice and to do it with a community.
I've done Inktober a few times, and used the prompts to make a few kids books, Further Still in 2017 and Ickle & Pickle's Prickle Pear Adventure in 2018. I used the prompt list in 2019 to give reclaimed t-shirts and tote bags a new life by adding art to them each day, and in 2020, I told the story of my time on a mediation retreat one day at a time through October.
NOW it's time to see what we'd like to do this month. Would you guys like to send in prompts and YOU'LL build my prompt list? Want to try out clay and I do a clay-a-day piece? Another story? I also found a great prompt list from an illustrator I really like but I'd love to hear your thoughts. Let me know in the comments, or send me a note on socials. I'll be putting it out to folks in my livestreams but wanted to see what the Patreon fam thought first.
Thank you all for your support and for being the loveliest source of creative input. Be well you wonderful folks!
