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 11.11.22 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.

Industrial Town by gillie343

Industrial Town by gillie343 paints a dynamic vision of architectural details. The focus is on the reliefs and ornate columns that decorate the buildings of an industrial town. They are contained in dimensional postage frames. A large pictorial image dominates the ground and is the only hint of the complete structure. The neutral colors of the architectural details are set against a painterly background of blue, green, red, gray and brown. The brush strokes contrast with the clean lines of the photos and frames. Energetic red brush strokes lead the viewer through the visit of the town to the title. The design is reminiscent of an adventure that flashes the details in our memories.

Thank you, gillie343, for sharing your stunning and inspirational artistry.
