Hello aArtists!
It’s time for another challenge from Anna Aspnes. The AnnaTeam selects a creative page or 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 10.30.20 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 one creative page from the Anna gallery as the ‘AnnaLift.’ Check out the inspiration page 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.
IN THIS CHALLENGE, WE ARE LIFTING THE DESIGN PRINCIPLE OF WHITE SPACE:
Graduation 2020 by helenedubois
https://ozone.oscraps.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=429185
Graduation 2020 by helenedubois captures the difficult directional changes that young gradates often face at the end of their school careers. The young man glances back and we clearly see the strength in his face. Beautiful symbolic crossroads are placed in a mist. He is dressed in neutrals that helenedubois balances with washes of blue and green. Textures are skillful placed in the white areas to create visual interests. A single brad accent is tied to the design for added dimension. Helenedubois creates a stunning design to inspire the stories of our lives.
AUTUMN by Marleen
https://ozone.oscraps.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=436361&title=autumn&cat=1351
In Autumn by Marleen, the graceful and golden leaves of the ginkgo tree are a beautiful contrast to the stark and graphic ground. Bold brushwork of inky stems and splatters are paired with a delicate grid. A single accent brad repeats the deep orange of the leaves and is used to continue the visual movement of the design. A bold scripted title completes the design. Marleen creates a stunning design to inspire our artistry.
Thank you, helenedubois and Marleen for sharing your expressive and inspirational artistry.
