ARtist challenge
We have had 2 months break from our Artist’s Challenge but as the days get shorter perhaps it is time to resume them. I emailed all those who have taken part in the Challenge over the previous 10 months about the future of this initiative and was met with an overwhelmingly positive response to keep going - so here we are again.
We suggest a title and a submission date, you submit your interpretation to us and we shall upload a selection onto the website each month.
October 2021 - Everyone’s a Winner Now on website
November 2021 - Magical Moments Now on website
December 2021 - All’s Well That Ends Well, or What You Will Now on website
January 2022 - Recycled / Bits and Pieces - Now on website
Submit by 5.00pm February 13th - One Fine Day
Submit by 5.00pm March 13th - Driving Force
As ever, please send you submissions to me at anna.cross@me.com
New, as well as long standing exhibitors are extremely welcome to join the challenge
Over the previous 10 months it has been so exciting to see the great variety of paintings and artwork that about 20 of our members have exhibited. Thank you to all who have embraced the Challenge - not least of attempting to adapt their paintings to my purposely vague titles.
To others, please pick up the gauntlet and join in

As a committee, we had an interesting discussion at a recent meeting about what forms of art would be suitable for our challenge. Painting and drawing definitely, but what about iPad art - yes we decided. (After all David Hockney exhibits it.) and have you tried it - it’s not easy. And what about artistic photographs? We think yes - if they are artistically manipulated to be truly artistic - either in real life, or in Photoshop etc.
I dare say you can think of other artistic media too, such as (photographs of your own) sculpture. So I do hope that you will join in the fun and the challenge and very much look forward to seeing your work.
1 entry per person per month please. With a title if possible.
