RE: Childhood Memories - Art Contest
That's such a fantastic theme @veryspider. I'm sure there will be lots of interest in this contest, as we all have our different memories of childhood. Some really pleasant ones and other's we would prefer to forget. It may even be a healing process for some people to recall their childhood memories.
I love the drawings, especially the last last pencil drawing. And the overlapping multitude of colours in your painting is lovely and free. Like @scrawly I like the earlier stages the best. It's SO hard to keep those light areas in watercolour. But you've done it really well with the texture of the trees. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
Thank you, Ally! I am hoping this contest will motivate even more people to discover nTopaz, as maybe Topaz tokens are not well understood yet by Steemians, but everyone should be inspired by the additional Steem prizes :D
I am glad to hear you think the theme is also inviting \o/
I hope to see a variation of all sorts of childhood memories being brought out through a process of creativity, and hopefully, in some, it can also be a process of reconciliation and healing....
And yes, the early stages seem to be the most fluid... But I am learning bits by bits on how to understand watercolours! (i think)
I did a mini-workshop on artist-journaling this morning Spider. Was a great way of being really free with watercolour ~ Amongst other techniques. Was great for the 'child' to come out and play. Which hopefully your contest will really encourage.
Just thinking about your contest has brought a few childhood memories to the surface ~ A lot about water and my love for water. Can't promise but if I can find some 'quality art time', I'll try to come up with something for you. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
Aaah i look forward to it, Ally <3 and yes, it is nice when the inner child comes out to play :D
