Fearless Friday, Gearing Up for Inktober
Daily art challenges are a great way to get in the habit
of daily drawing or painting
It’s fun, and challenges are a great way to improve your skills,
stretch your boundries and learn new things
You can share your art on social media
and be inspired by what other artists are doing
I am going to participate in 2 upcoming challenges,
Inktober and Doodlewash October
I am only going to do one ink drawing/painting each day
because many of the prompts are similar
or can be interpreted for the same subject~
For instance I’m going to do a cake for #1 Dream/Dessert
I will post it with the phrase “I’m dreaming of dessert”
#inktober23 #doodlewash23
For Inktober, you have to use ink but you can add color
Doodlewash challenges are drawing and painting with watercolor
The daily prompts can challenge you to focus on a subject
that might be out of your comfort zone
And that’s part of the fun!
The prompt for this Zentangle rooster was “proud”
The monthly challenge prompts often are seasonal,
like the prompt for the drawing below was “leaf”
Or you can make them seasonal like this Halloween cauldron
for the prompt “bubbles”
I hope you’ll try an art challenge,
and there’s no pressure, you can do it daily
or every now and then, it’s totally up to you!
Be Fearless!

Looks like a fun way to get inspired with your art work.
Thanks Carole, the challenges are really fun!
Jenna, you are so talented! This looks like so much fun, and I canāt wait to see what you create in October. Happy Friday! Enjoy your weekend!
Thanks so much Shannon, now I just have to make myself do it š
I wish this was in February or March when I’m not in full art sale prep mode. This would be such fun but this month, probably stressful! I love all your paintings.
Doodlewash has a challenge every month, you can get the prompts on Doodlewash.com, so you should try it next spring!

You have already been a busy girl…such fun, my favorite is the stained glass leaf…or is it kaleidoscope leaf… took 10 tries to spell that, lol. Hugs, Sandi

Ah Jenna. All these paintings are beautiful and are inspiration in and of themselves for your upcoming challenges. I can’t choose a favorite but the leaf and acorns painting is really lovely. I can’t wait to see what you come up with and I’m so glad that you share your amazing talent with us!
