For November, a Challenge

Blogger challenges don’t appear to me as being as popular as they once were. It could also be that I don’t read as many art blogs as I use to for me to see challenges. 

A challenge to draw every day shouldn’t be a challenge because, as I see it, no matter the skill level, an artist should draw everyday. Years ago I tried such a challenge. Easily distracted, my success wasn’t all that great. 

Mixing it up, a challenge to post every day a photo, a sketch, a painting or a craft project in November is the challenge for this blog. 

The eleventh month, to me, isn’t all that exciting. A challenge will hopefully brighten up those anticipated blustery days. I will prepare by jotting down notes to help me along, starting 8 days away.

Update: Instead of 30 posts, 4 posts with art done that week. Every day posting isn’t practical for me. There’s too many days when I want to stop blogging as it is.

  1. Maywyn this looks like a great challenge for the more somber month of November. I think I will join you in this challenge. Hope your end of October is lovely in every way. Hugs!

    1. Debbie,
      Wishing you much success!
      This afternoon I made notes for November.
      The challenge feels less daunting now. 😂

  2. Another great photo!
    You're right in thinking there aren't as many challenges showing up online - at least not in my circles anyway. Perhaps they show up more on Instagram but I don't go there very often.

    1. Maryanne,
      In the last year, I think I’ve seen one or two month long challenges.
      About ten years ago, there were a lot more.
