Art Exchange!

[Farm Boy]

I'm finished!  All that's left for me to do is scan it and send it in.  That'll be done by tonight.

[Rock_chick]

Damn...I'm such a lazy cow...If I'd seen this two days ago I could have had mine finished...arse.

[DRAIN]

[Rock_chick]

iFail

creative block coupled with a major attack of the apathies has meant even when I did sit down and try and start something I gave up and deleted the file because I didn't like it.\\

sorry.

[Crow]

I return from vacation-land!

As soon as the last two people turn their entries in, I'll post the board with handouts.

While we're waiting on the last two entries, anyone care to brainstorm ideas for a follow-up exchange? Do we want to do the same thing, or do we want to have a theme, and if so, what kind of theme (usually themes are optional and very open-to-interpretation, just fun guidelines to break up monotony)? If you have any ideas for ways to change things up that would be open-ended enough not to exclude people, feel free to voice your ideas!

[Crypt77]

A theme would be cool but it might be difficult for some (creative block can be a bitch).

Well, either way, people will have to draw whatever the person they're drawing for requests. Creative block will interfere with that, theme or no theme.

Also, in most exchanges, if there is a theme, it's optional. People wouldn't have to ask for something related to the theme (but they can if they want to), nor are they required to draw something related to the theme. It would be more of a "Hey, if you need ideas, here's a theme!" thing. Mostly to keep people who routinely participate in exchanges from getting bored. 83

A theme might be nice, it would make it a little easier for me to draw.

[Crypt77]

Hurry up peeps! You've had over a month!

LOL!!! This is why I like you ƃuıxǝʌ

[BunnyBee]

Seriously though... hurry up!

[Silver]

I'm curious about all the art.

Oh, if we do themes I suggest the first be "dragons" because dragons are awesome.

[Crypt77]

I second dragons.

[Coppélia]

Can't wait to see the finished products!

Dragons! That's pretty much all I drew when I was younger I fear I might have lost my touch a bit though

Anyway, theme or no theme I'm looking forward to this

[Crow]

Dragons might be a bit specific for a theme-- maybe something more open-ended like "Fantasy"? That could be interpreted in a lot of different ways, and would therefore work nicely as an exchange theme for such a diverse group of artists!

[Coppélia]

A point you have. It wouldn't be all that interesting in the end if everyone drew a dragon anyway.

[Osiris]

Fantasy would be good, leaves it nice and open for interpretation. Perhaps it can be fantasy creatures, it could be dragons or a creature you come up with. Now that'd be fun.

[Farm Boy]

Ooh, I second a fantasy/mythical creatures theme!  That would be awesome!

[Silver]

Well I figured it could be a little specific since themes aren't required, only provided as free inspiration/ideas/whatever.

[Crow]

True, but we still want it to be a theme that appeals and applies to the majority of participants, since what fun is a theme when only a quarter of the participants are participating in it?

[Miniar]

I'm game for "fantasy" as that means I can ask for the same thing again !
