There have been a lot of inspiring artworks posted on Facebook and Instagram. I’ve enjoyed making these, and seeing what is posted. For our last project, choose a SAL Challenge post someone else made, and make an artwork in response to it. You can find projects by searching for those hashtags on Instagram (click here), and on Facebook (click here). Be sure to include the artist’s name and a picture of your inspiration when you post your Re-Mark.
Thankyou for sharingyourwork! I love seeing these artworks online. People who post to Instagram or on Facebook will be eligible to win prizes (see details). No matter where you post, tag us so we can find it. #seattleartistleague #salchallenge #remarkable
