Have you started on your Radioactive/Butterfly?

f013bx67

Have you started to think about your idea for Radioactive / Butterfly yet?  Will you take a photo?  Will you manipulate something in Photoshop?  Will you make a mashed potato sculpture ala “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”?  Are you going to mow your lawn into some shape or design?  What ever you decide to do, it’s due this Friday.  This is just a friendly reminder to start thinking about, and maybe even start working on, what you want to do for this week’s challuunge.  The picture above is what Google pulls up when you search in images.  What will yours be?  We can’t wait to see what your mind comes up with… 

STARTER IDEA OF THE DAY: Have you always wanted to manipulate photos like the pros but don’t have Photoshop handy? Would you like to use a free online program to see if you REALLY like it?  Well good news for you: http://www.picnik.com/ is a free online photo editor.  You may just find that you like to manipulate photos so much that you have to get Photoshop right away.  You never know?  Give it a shot.  We’ll see you all this Friday for the art work submissions and the voting.

Old-viking-coloring-pageGood day to all Art Challuungers of the world!  We are happy to bug you about your submissions for this week’s challuunge.  The words for this week are OLD / VIKING.  Have you started your photo session/pencil sketch/cooking project/crayon creation/quick dry cement sculpture yet?  NO!?  Well why not start something now?  I mean, it won’t hurt at all and will only get those creative juices flowing that you may not have felt since that sophomore art class you took back in high school… To the left is the first pic that Google Search pulls up when you type in OLD / VIKING.

So head on out into the great wide open and create something this week.  Your brain will thank you!

Don’t forget to visit the monthly Art Deck Blog where we will be posting our updates weekly.  I know, a monthly blog with weekly posts… but check out the HOW IT WORKS tab at the top of the page for more explanation.

Switching Things Up!

It's a new year and I know that you all have some resolutions that require resoluting. So do we at R-WAC headquarters. Here’s what’s new.

- We are switching up the Random Words Art Challuunge. We are going from THREE random words to TWO random words a week. This should simplify each challuunge and hopefully increase participation and excitement.

–Today is the last day we’ll be voting on words. After the first week's submissions are posted the voting will shift to the artwork. That's right, you will now be voting on whose art is the most creative, cleverest, most colorful, most black and white, coolest, hottest or the best fit for the words. Whatever the reason, you will be picking a winner from each week's submissions. That winner will choose the next week's two words (anything goes). Kind of fun, eh?

So, hey... why not vote for next week's TWO words below!Voting ends tomorrow at 2pm... at which time we will reveal the winning words.

More Delays

Well it looks like you've got one more week for your Crack / Growth / Cobweb entries.  What can I say, sometimes we get lazy.  The workin' days are extra hectic at Art Challuunge HQ this time of year.  Starting next week we should be able to get things back on track with weekly Challunge goodness.  See you then.
