Hey Facers, last week with the Quick Draw prompt, how did you find it? A big thanks again to Gibby Frogett for suggesting it!
Bit of a heads-up, I have bought forward the next prompt to August instead of September, so feel free to try using your non-dominant hand to draw you share for next week if you want to play along with the prompt. But do remember the prompts are completly optional and you can link up any face/ portrait art you want to share.
Shall we share again this week?
First up the admin…
Schedule:
- Quick Draw Faces – July 2016 (set a timer to say 10-15 min – or less if you dare! – and draw a face or several faces in that time. Suggested by Gibby Frogett).
- Change Hands – August 2016 (try using your non-dominant hand to draw/ paint / make your face this month. Suggested by Hazel Agnew).
Remember all are optional prompts, you don’t have to use them, they are there if you fancy playing, if not just link up your usual work as normal.
Don’t forget:
- Show Your Face is a community link up for portrait work in any style or medium.
- the aims are to share, learn, practise, inspire, and be inspired.
- to make sure that the face artwork is yours, if you use any stamps or templates to build the face they should be designed by you.
- the link is open from 10 am (BST) every Friday and stays open for a week, so link away.
- finished pieces, works in progress or retro posts (i.e. older works, not from this week) are all welcome.
- to link back to the link blog post here for that week.
- Spread the word on your blog/social media outlets and use the #ShowYourFaceFriday hashtag in social media.
- There is a prompt every other month. Using the prompts is totally optional and just there if you fancy playing along. You can still post your face work even if you haven’t used the prompt.
Looking For The Blog Button?
If you want to wear the blog button with pride then hop on over to Show Your Face 31st July 2015 to grab it and there are instructions on how to put it on your blog there too.
My Share This Week…
I’ve taken this Quick Draw prompt a bit to heart and gone with another see how many different ways I can quick sketch a face. I wanted to just try out different designs so I did around 40 of them, it is fun!
