Hello dear friend and welcome back to Weekend Challenges!
Volume 4
Dear artists,
We took a break from Weekend Challenges, and now we are back with more ideas and new guest teachers!
This time around we will do 4 week run, each weekend sending free new tutorials and references from out winners from reference competition.
These should not take a lot of your time. Art project doesn’t have to take all day long, consistency in showing up – that’s what counts. And even if you only put in 20 minutes – you have completed your weekend challenge! Go ahead and show it in our FB group, we are excited to see what you create!
If you have a friends who might like to practice with us – feel free to invite them to our FB group, the more – the merrier.
Please follow Art Challenges on Instagram, tag and hushtag #WeekendArtChallenges to be featured on our Instagram. It’s fun!
Oh, and now we also have a FB page – please give us thumbs up ( like our page) if you feel like it 🙂
*** Please do NOT share the link to our classroom . The classroom is available for our VIP members only.
Thank you <3

Week 2 (V.3) with Olga Furman
Perseverance is what important in art practice. If you have only 10 minutes then finish just as much as you can. As you can see I could complete only half of the face in time I had, but I like the mystery too, and it felt right to leave it as is. If you have more time on hand or you are a faster painter please feel free to draw/paint the whole face.
