DIFFERENT STROKES OCTOBER 2022: Acrylics Challenge!

[Charlies Mum Administrator (Maureen)]

Colin, Carl is taking November.

…..

Thinking of taking a break in December, for everyone I mean, e.g. no challenge! Any thoughts on that?

Cheers, Maureen

No!  We must have a challenge in December!  I’ll host if that’s the issue!

I have no idea what to suggest but those long winter evenings are exactly the days when I have the opportunity to paint….  unless I have a bunch of commissions….

Well, I will host if we can agree on having a  challenge….. perhaps make it a double challenge…..  extend the reveal date into January?

Thanks Sheila ….. it was more a suggestion because people are usually so busy over that month. If there’s no majority either way, then you can make a double month challenge and be prepared for some not having time!?

But Maureen?  What is this “time” thing of which you speak?

Each year we ask if we need a December challenge and I remember what I’ve done each December for the challenges.  Last year was a polar bear!

We’ll do a double length challenge so people who are “bored” can have several months to create a masterpiece and those who are busily entertaining and traveling can start up at the beginning of the new year.  (I’ll put my thinking hat on!)

I was fine with skipping December, but if you want to make it 2 months, that could work. I think we did that before.

C&C always welcome. Michelle
