Description:
OK, so we did a free topic and we did some figure drawing and we touched the animal kingdom (well, insects kingdom) so I thought we should try a still life next. But I really hate those paintings of fruit baskets and droopy fabrics, so instead - give this a shot: Choose one of those room \ places in your house: Bathroom - kitchen - wardrobe - garden - purse (I walk around with a huge backpack which is as big as a room in an average house. Pick 5 objects from that room \ place, they can be big as a chair or a tree or small like a toothbrush or a pair of shoes - whatever have an interesting shape and makes you feel like drawing. Draw \ paint 5 postcards - yes this is a drawing challenge and most of the postcard should be hand painted \ drawn. you can use other techniques in moderation. Sent to 5 different people - receive 5 postcards from 5 people. Fun, easy, challenging. I got 2 of the insects postcards yesterday and they are beautiful! ho, I always forget this one - newbees are welcome, people with less then 4 rating will be ban.

This sounds like fun, what size should the postcards be?

Mine are done and will be in the mail tomorrow. I posted them on my Flickr page too.

Aya, will you be doing another postcard challenge? I've enjoyed your themes so far.

Postcards are on their way to Aya Rosen, Drewzel, Rain, Anayari, and Gypsy Song.

Great postcard received today from our host, Aya Rosen. Thanks, Aya! Love the Altoid tin! (In fact, I like the tins better than I like the mints!)

I received a pretty "still" landscape from Cupcake today. A lively little water color postcard, very nice.

A New Twist in Life, Just like life, sometimes it just needs a little boost. Oral testosterone treatment can provide men with low testosterone a way to regain energy, mood, and vitality. It is not just about the numbers, it is about feeling alive again. Whether it is art or health, small changes can make a big impact. Life thrives on balance, and sometimes, a little help can make a big difference. https://www.rethinktestosterone.com/blog/transform-life-2025-hormone-optimization
