Such a great idea, Shana! Doing a monthly challenge this way would make it seem less overwhelming and more do-able. I am so impressed with how you made the whole thing cohesive, given that you couldn't really plan ahead except for the stencil shapes. I think my favorite is your sweet dog under the blanket.
Thank you so much, Michele! It was definitely less daunting this way, and I'm super happy with how the full spread came out! I love that prompt, too, but I may be a bit biased because I love my dog so much, lol. 🥰
Brilliant!!! This was my first year too. I did October and I saw a big improvement in my drawing ability so I highly recommend trying it. It’s hard to pick just one favourite from this page. Hearing your stories, thoughts etc elevates them. I will be trying this approach of mini paintings across two pages for daily warm-ups. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, Kendra! I am definitely thinking about doing Inktober in a similar way to this. This approach is great for daily warm-ups! I hope you enjoy yourself while doing so!
I love this Shana! Well done on completing the challenge in such a beautiful way. My favourite is scratch, mainly because I too am slave to such a paw, complete with multicoloured toe beans 🎨👩🏻🎨🖌️🥰
We love you for your sense of humor and your art! I have 2 more days to be finished with my first WWM. I have done InkTober since 2017, this year is all about the dragon! I followed the official list twice then made my own lol.
Great paintings for watercolor month Shana! I loved Tidal, Tarot, Spike the plant, Arch. You could come up with your own version of a watercolor challenge using your Artist Dice. I'm not a Sticker person, but I'm sure there would be a lot of people that would buy your stickers if you made them.
That is a stunning page!! ✨️ The color wheel, the feather, the tidal, the widen, and even the little flower touches by the title are my favorites!! 🌈🥰 Your plant and pets are all adorable!! 😍🤗 So many sticker ideas!! 👏👏 Great idea to take the challenge smaller!! 💗
These were great to look at. I also did World Watercolor month and made a video which I still need to post. We have a couple of the same themes- the raisin bran, the vinyl record, and the cat claw. I liked hearing your stories behind each of them. I have to say, I had several duds in my month's worth, but had a few of mine that I liked as well. I really like your spread you did, what a great idea!
I love that! Great minds think alike! I definitely had a few that I was less than pleased with. But overall, I am just happy that I stuck with it! I can't wait to see your video when it comes out!
"Rush" - maybe the "annoying space" could be toned down a little with a clock outside the Rush-box, because the person is chasing afer time :D "Deck" - haha, a Tarot Deck is the association that I would have gone with too, I have quite a few of them! "Pull" - OMG!! 😂🤣😂 ...I was gonna say the little bridge and the "Tidal"-sunset are my favorites, but I have to admit, your Pull-Finger is too brilliant!! 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂 thank you! I'm glad you get my sense of humor! I also have several decks, I'm glad I'm not alone in that interest! 🥰 I thought about putting something in that empty space, but I couldn't think of what. A clock is a good idea! I will have to think about it. I'm not sure I want to add anything at this point, I kinda just want to be done, lol. But that is a good one!
@@CautionArtistatPlay Butting in here, I know, but for me, Rush is exactly as it should be! There's an emoticon with a rabbit running, and a big watch and lots of other takes on it with a clock (including one I did myself! ), So, yes, I'm butting in, and others will disagree, I'm sure, and that's ok with me! But your take on it really doesn't need the clock - she's perfect as she is. I'm also cautious about going back to a finished spread that we're proud of to try to alter something, and then realising we should have left well alone! 🤗
Shana, far too many that I really like to be able to choose one! As for too much yellow? I think that your balancing of colour across the page was just totally, intuitively, harmonious and cheerful! Also, I know just how long small paintings can take to do, and again, from me, full respect for this intricate work of art. Looking at the whole spread again, I'm picking out _ (in no particular order)_ Rust (brilliant glazing technique!), the seascape, the blue and yellow glazed flowers, traffic lights (I love the shape of this, with the 'wings' on each side of the lights). Oh, and the barber's pole for the sparkle of inspiration, and additions to the rectangle, study, for its wonderful, innocent simplicity. Ditto for Rush. And finally, but definitely not least, for sheer genius of artistic ability, Maisie, under your blanket... Ok, I have to stop there! It's getting late here, and I really do need to do the ironing, cos I need one of the skirts for church tomorrow!!! Otherwise, I could probably find a reason for the remaining twenty-four!!!! 🤔 Oh - and the bridge! That's not an error because of the gap at the binding. It's an old bridge and the land has slipped on one side, so there's a slip in the brickwork in the middle of the bridge. That's my reason, anyway, and I think it's a good one! 😄
Thank you so much for your wonderful comments on each of the prompts! I really appreciate it! I'm glad the cluster of yellow wasn't too distracting, I tried to balance it once I realized it was there! Your assessment of the bridge is fantastic because it really is a very old bridge! I had fun playing with each of the shapes and modifying them for the prompts, especially the traffic light and barber pole! I'm glad you enjoyed what I came up with! I hope you have a wonderful evening, and as always, thanks for being here! 🥰
@@CautionArtistatPlay Hi, Shana. I really thought that I'd lost this post, as it didn't come up! I'm so glad it has, but if it hadn't. I'd have re-done it tomorrow. I've deleted the comment where I said I'd lost it. It's great to be able to sit here and write a happy post about someone's video, and this was just so smile-making... And yes, the ironing I mentioned has been done, so it's been a good evening. bedtime now. Hope the rest of your day goes well. 😊
I participated! The last few days were rough, but it feels good to finish. I love the ones with your pup, the stop light, and the tire swing! (To name just a few)

I thought I'd have a tough time choosing a favorite prompt, but then I saw kitty toe beans! Neapolitan aww 🥺💗 'Buried' is so sweet too.
Thank you! 💖 Yeah, that paw is pretty irresistible! Haha!

A great idea to do small paintings. I love the snake plant - that would make a cute sticker!
~ Kathy Busby
Thank you so much, Kathy! I agree, I think that one would make a really fun sticker!
What a fun way to take on the challenge that's not overwhelming! Cool spread! "Buried" was my favorite with that sweet face!
Thank you, Lynne! It's hard to resist that little face! 🥰
Great idea using stencils! Love all your little paintings. Super cute!
Thank you, Francine!
Yes!!!! Can't wait for the hobbit land paint out!
Me either! I'm super stoked! I can't wait for you to see the place!
Me too!
So beautiful
Thank you!! 😁
Great way to approach this challenge. Very cool, and love the stories behind your choices.
Thank you!! 😁

Lol, thank you, Heather! I love that you have your own theme, fun!!

Ooh, using the dice is a fun idea! I will have to think about that! Thank you! Those are some of my favorite prompts too!
STICKER PARTY!!!!!!!!
Haha! Yes!!

Thank you so much! The colorful prompts are some of my favorites, too! I had so much fun creating so many rainbowy illustrations!
@@CautionArtistatPlay You're very welcome!! 🤗😍 They really tie the pages together!!🌈🥰

Thank you so much, Karen! I saw your prompts on Instagram! They all came out beautifully! 💖
@@CautionArtistatPlay thanks!
@karenclarkcreations You're welcome!
Looks Great Shanna! I was just too busy to do it, maybe next year…
FYI the feather needs a sticker
Thanks, Rob! I was thinking that would be a good sticker, too!
