The last 30 day creative challenge was so delightful, I thought it might be time to do another. Today I launch the October Creative Challenge!
WANNA DRAW?
You can challenge yourself to do all 30 challenges, 5 a week, or whatever floats your boat. I know sitting down to make even the silliest of doodles can be a big deal for a busy brain, so use this challenge as an excuse to make something whenever you’re able. Short on time? Set a timer for 15 minutes. Try it. You’ll feel better, or your money back. (It’s free.)
I’M IN. HOW DO I JOIN THE CHALLENGE?
If you want to receive the daily creative prompts, make sure you’re on the daily-ish V. Notes email list. If you’re not sure you’re on this list, or if you don’t get an email tomorrow at 7:00am, click here to register.

The drawing above is a finished work by Richard Tuttle. Isn’t it cute? For this challenge, pretend you are sitting at a table with Mr. Tuttle, and he has just handed you this drawing, requesting that you finish his unfinished idea. You can redraw it, print it out, rotate the paper, but please don’t change the placement of his marks on the page. He put them where he meant to. Feel free to use any media, not just drawing. He is known to use string….

Yesterday I posted drawings by Stanley Lewis. Lewis was one of the influences listed by Charity Baker at the New York Studio School. Looking through Lewis’ art and writing, I found an interview on Painting Perceptions that talked about his methods, and his influences: “[Painting from perception] often feels like a horribly impossible thing to …
After posting the Japanese funerary artworks of Haniwa from the 3rd through the 6th centuries, I was curious what other cultures around the world were making for funerary art at that time. First I posted Haniwa, then I posted Roman Catacomb frescoes, and today I have ceramic figurines from ancient China. These ceramic attendants were …
Wiki: In photography, bokeh is the aesthetic quality of the blur produced in the out-of-focus parts of an image produced by a lens. Bokeh has been defined as “the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light”. Another artist in Seattle paints the bokeh effect consistently into her work: Kate Protage at the SAM Gallery …
