AW CHALLENGE - GET WILD!!

For quite some time ... I feel like I need to test more techniques in my art... to make some kind of change in my work, perhaps not a permanent change.. Perhaps do more quick artworks then my usual.
Experimenting with things, makes us learn and develop ourselves and our abilities.. I thought to suggest here AW new challenge . Name of the challenge: "GET WILD".. Trying to do something which is DIFFERENT from your usual work. This subject can be taken to ALL Medias.. using every technique you wish. The challenge is for ALL Shapes of ART.. Painting, sculpturing & photography if you wish.

I thought about it.. "GET WILD" Doing something different from your usual.. Can mean work freely, as FREE As possible... but then there are those who work usually very freely, perhaps for these cases, I'll suggest trying more accurate technique then your usual.. Be a NEW Artist for this project :-)

I wish to know what do you think?
Suggestions...
Now, the idea, is to post the relevant artwork or artworks for this challenge at the same date.
Since some of us are very busy in real life including myself.. I would suggest a month from today to post our challenge: " GET WILD "..
That means the posting will be for the new year 2010 at :
JAN, 15,2010
What do you say?... Thanks for visiting... greetings, NIRA.

I have something that I have been messing with for a while. Kind of a spare time thing. I will try to finish it and get it posted.

Terry Bassett 15 Dec 2009

I too have been experimenting with different avenues... like yourself, the need to test something different..

Nira Dabush 15 Dec 2009

ALL RIGHT, Darrel.. I'm delighted to meet you here.. and I will be delighted to see the outcome, please check this thread from time to time, if you can.. you can post here also experiments. That is if you wish.
At JAN, 15,2010.. I wish to see your artwork also posted on this thread and on your portfolio... so more people will go visit your art, at your portfolio. Thanks so much for joining : "GET WILD"

Hey Nira, I am happy to try something different and get wild for Jan 15th 2010!! not sure what to do but I will give it a good go;-))

Nira Dabush 15 Dec 2009

Peter.. I'm so glad to sEE you here.. perhaps your dreams will inspire you LOL!!.. Yeah, give it a thought or more, if you wish you can post here suggestions, questions ideas.. etc.
If you need our advice, we might help.
Perhaps take brushes and paints.. get wild and make photos of it, later.
The main idea, is to do something NEW to you without to afraid of the outcome.
Experiments can be posted here all the time, until or after this date.
OR... Simply try total NEW DIRECTION in photography. GOOD LUCK... You'll have sweet dreams tonight - I JUST KNOW IT.

Hi Nira, Always so good to see you. It's been quite a while. I read your post a little while ago and have been in thought with your great idea. I've got it! I thought of something different from my usual oil paints, so I'm in.

Hi Nira, great idea! I am experimenting with a new digital program, but not successful for the moment and not sure, that I can show something presentable for the 15th of January. Good night from Paris

Hi there dear Vivian.. I'm so glad to see you here... I think it can be very releasing to try do some free work as for a change...
