a bunch o' challenges

I loved Nina Johansson's "week drawings", so I decided to give it a try. I started at the end of last week using EDM challenges to fill the page.

Check out how old that mustard is—YIKES!

I love this! And, I really like the idea of putting several challenges on one page ... I might have to give it a go! nancy

WONDERFUL handling, Jennifer, and luscious color! I'm glad Nina inspired you, but you definitely made it your own...

Shirley said...

Wonderful collection - and I look at your challenge objects and it takes me back to my drawings from the same ones....

Beautiful work, as usual Jennifer!

What a great idea! I love your loose work.

Sandy said...

Very intriguing, as you lead the eye through the objects - I want to try a week long page myself - thanks for the inspiration!

Sandra said...

Neat idea to have many challenges on one page. Now, if I can capture some of your colors and technique, I'll be really happy.

Great page of challenges! I'm so in awe of your talent! The mustard is so old, but it does sound like it would taste good!

Thank you all for your wonderful comments and encouragement. This was fun a fun page to create. I may try it again.

Way to check off a whole bunch of EDM challenges in one swoop, Jennifer! You probably have all the challenges you need, but I added a sidebar of miscellaneous drawing and painting challenges on my blog.
