Hello Art Challuungers of the World!  You may have noticed that we are slackin a bit around here.  Well, everyone gets busy, including us here at the old R-WAC.  So here’s the deal:

• We won’t be having an art challuunge for a few weeks.
• Art Challuunge will return on Friday, April 18th.
• We are adding two more words for the next couple of weeks.

So here are the four words for the challuunge, due Friday April 18th:

WINTER / ABNORMALITY

SYMBOL / ATTACKER

 

So for now, here are some pretty punny puns…

We have a winner! Inspiration & announcement!

Hot Rod, you are the winner!  Now, make sure you pick two random words. 

Art Challuunge will be extended 1 week, so WINTER / ABNORMALITY will be due next FRIDAY April 4th.  Hot Rod will need to provide words by then, so you got an extra week or so…
