Hello aArtists!

It’s time for another challenge from Anna Aspnes. The AnnaTeam selects a creative page or design concept from the Anna gallery as the ‘AnnaLift.’ Be inspired, create your own ‘AnnaLift,’ upload your page to the Anna gallery and include it here in this forum thread. Upload your page by Friday 07.09.22 by 8:00 pm EST with the title, ‘AnnaLift. ’ One lucky participant will be randomly selected to win a $5.00 GiftKard to Anna’s shop.

HOW IT WORKS: On Saturday the AnnaTeam posts a creative concept from the Anna gallery as the ‘AnnaLift.’ Check out the inspiration and decide what speaks to you. Is it the design, the color, the wordART, or maybe the photo? Then enjoy artfully playing—there is no right or wrong way to ArtPlay.

Choose ONE idea to lift or choose it ALL and lift it completely. Be inspired, create your ‘AnnaLift’ and then upload your page to the Anna gallery, plus include it here in this forum thread. It would be great if you could link back to your page in the gallery too!

Anna’s products mix well with so many kits/designers and Anna welcomes you to include these with your Anna Products on your AnnaLift page.

If you’ve never challenged yourself to an AnnaLift—just do it!

If you’ve never posted or shared your AnnaLift—just do it!

If you have time to leave some love for someone in the gallery—do it too!
(Your kind words may inspire and encourage someone!)

Please post your art in this thread and link to the Anna Aspnes gallery to win the $5 giftcard.




Dad Motorcycle Jacket by char8182


In Dad Motorcycle Jacket, char8182 shares a wonderful heritage image. A favorite motorcycle jacket and memory are preserved in this portrait of her father. Char8182 creates a horizontal flow for the composition. Vintage lace and impasto paint are paired with the well loved and creased photo. The bright yellow and sepia splashes rest on a neutral ground. They lead the eye to elemental and title clusters of beaded threads, ribbon, and descriptive words. A tiny pink heart accents the words “My Dad”. Char8182 has created a gorgeous image to inspire our artistry.

I worked on this page all day, thinking I'd change whatever I needed to, to make it work for the challenge. By the time the lift was posted, I decided it was good to go. ;)

Nancy thank you for choosing my page for the AnnaLift challenge. I was pleasantly surprised and grateful. My dad's birthday would have been June 23rd and he's been physically gone for 16 years but always in my heart.
