The Art Challenge - November 2010

On November 1st, 2010 I will commence the "Draw 30 Random Tattoo Designs in 30 Days" challenge.

I am inviting my friends in the industry, and any artist who wishes to try their hand at it, to participate.

Each week I will post seven drawing prompts that my random idea generator will provide. A style, a visual and a body placement will be provided.

The prompts will be formatted like this "Celtic, Horseshoe, Calf" and with that you will create a sketch of a tattoo design...it doesn't have to be full-color, lined finished art...just a sketch will do.

In the weeks leading up to November 1st, I will begin posting prompts in the mornings and posting my sketches in the evenings. I plan to do 30 designs in October to warm-up.

If you want to warm-up this way, feel free to participate. If you would like to post your drawings here, email them to 30designsin30days@gmail.com, or snap a pic with your phone and text them to 424-234-3729.

I'm available to chat on Google Chat.

The designs will be posted here on http://30tattoodesignsin30days.blogspot.com daily

Designs we feel are in the spirit of the challenge will be collected into a book and sold near cost. All proceeds of the book sales will be used in future challenges or to help send kids to after school art classes via cash grants and scholarships.

By participating, all artists give permission to use the art for use in the book and for promotional purposes...we will not use your art in any other way.

Artists, please inform yourself about the Creative Commons licenses here... http://creativecommons.org/about/licenses

This challenge is about tattoo art. This should be fun. Participate as often as you like, or don't, but at the end of October, those of you who have completed the challenge will find the rewards of your actions are the collection of art you have created.

I hope you accept my challenge. If you know someone who might like to participate, please, forward this post to them.
