? Start a monthly animal challenge.

[pcj]

Hello.
I'm a new member here.
I was wondering if we could start a monthly animal challenge similar
to the one we had on Wet Canvas ?
Each month is hosted by a different person who posts several photo's on
the first day of the month.
People can then choose which photo they would like to draw/paint/sculpt
[any media is allowed]
On the 20th of the month everyone posts their drawings/paintings/sculpture etc.
Cheers,
Patricia

.... the ball is in your court .. Welcome aboard.

 

[Artyczar]

Sounds fun! Why are your words crossed out though?

 

[pcj]

That's odd, I have no idea why the words are crossed out.

Would it be OK if I started a monthly challenge on Oct 1 ?
Cheers,
Patricia

 

[Terri]

That's OK, we can still read them.

I think you should go for it!

 

[Schuee]

Excellent, Patricia. Will you keep the rota of who will post for each challenge?

 

[Joy]

Fabulous, Patricia - the challenges keep so many of us going, as the comaraderie is greatly enjoyed by all. It motivates me to do something!

 

[pcj]

OK ! The animal challenge will start on Oct 1

Penny, Yes. I'll keep a rota of who will host each month. I'll start a new thread for it
so that people who would like to host can let me know.
Would anyone like to do Nov and Dec ?

Each month's challenge will also have it's own thread [similar to Wet Canvas]

I feel the same way Joy.

Cheers,
Patricia

That’s great, Patricia. The challenges are what keep me drawing/painting. Put me down for November, if that suits. I look forward to taking part.

Will you have a posting date or are you keeping it open to post anytime during the month?

 

[moscatel]

Patricia, does it have to be that posting is a particular one like 20th? Could it be any day of the month?

It is common for the challenge to be posted on the 1st of the month and then the participants to share their input after the 20th of the month. It was done in this way for every participant having enough time to develop something and to not be influenced by other inputs in the process. It was also fun to have a bunch of shares simultaneously coming as also the anxious expectancy for the date to come...

 

[Schuee]

Yes, I agree, Federico. We will see what Patricia decides.

 

[Joy]

I look forward to this.

 

[Artyczar]

I too look forward to it.

 

[KreativeK]

Me too! Count me in to host whatever month is next. Thanks for sharing this info.

 

[pcj]

Thankyou everyone.
The 1st day will be the day for each host to post their photo's.
The 20th will be the day for everyone to post their artworks.

I'll start the Oct thread today and will have all the photo's posted by tomorrow.
Is there a maximum file size for each photo ?

I'll also start the rota thread today.
Penny , will I put you down for Nov and Kay,could you do Dec ?
Cheers,
Patricia

 

[KreativeK]

Yes, December is fine.

 

[pcj]

Thankyou Kay.
Is there a maximum file size for each photo ?

 

[Artyczar]

For now, it's a maximum of 900 pixels in width at 72 dpi. 10 images per post.

 

[fedetony]

I'll do January or Feb
