Day 25: Fused Glass Powder Sgraffito Drawing Challenge

Today is Day 25 of the very first,

 'Official Fused Glass Powder Sgraffito

 30 in 30 Drawing Challenge' 

ever to be attempted by any human on earth, with intent to improve skills and have fun regardless of the brain pain.

Hurray! YAY!  Great Job!  For all of you who have stuck with it every day of the challenge, 

You are special, few, and far-between.

As part of the "Non-Dominant Weekend Challenge" today,  I can tell you that your efforts will benefit you even if you don't realize it.  And the more effort you make to practice these challenges long after we're finished with the 'Official 30 in 30' thing, the better your artwork will be.  If you have just joined our challenge, there is still time to participate!  5 days is better than sitting back and watching things go by.  Start at the beginning and get your first five days in.  

You'll be glad you did! 

And YOU, sitting on the couch with that 'fluffer-nutter' sandwich in your hand, watching this challenge from your laptop and dreaming... shame on you.   Get up and get busy drawing!  I have never seen a real 'fluffer-nutter' sandwich, but they are real, and I hear they will kill you if you didn't grow up on them.

Today's Challenge for Day 25:  Create a Glass Powder Sgraffito Drawing of a tree, using only a business card, tools at your disposal, and your non-dominant hand. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Sit on the dominant one if you have to, and think of one of our precious fellow people who have lost their dominant hand forever while you work on it.  

You may never know them, but be sure that each one could use our prayers for strength and the ability to overcome,  because they have no choice but to do it.

Fused Glass Powder Sgraffito Drawing Challenge 2015

Beginning on January 1st, 2015,  I'll be hosting the first ever.... 
Fused Glass Powder Sgraffito Drawing Challenge  to create 30 drawings using powdered glass in 30 days.  Sounds impossible, doesn't it?  Trust me, it's not.

So far, there are over 350 crazy glass artists from 9 different countries participating! It's just for fun, and we'll all be working on improving our skills using glass powders while having a good time. The goal of this challenge is to encourage artists of all skill levels to develop new working habits, share ideas, and improve skills in using glass powders as an art form in the New Year.

Each of us will be creating a small piece of artwork using glass powders every day during the month of January. Photos of our daily work will be displayed on my blog, with links to each artist's personal blogs.  Please check back each day in January to view all of the artwork we'll be making!   

350 Artists X 30 pieces each = a whopping 10,500 pieces of artwork created in just 30 days!  This is going to be so much fun!!!

If you or someone you know would like to join the Challenge, send them to our Facebook group for details in how to participate.  Not on Facebook? email me and I'll send you the info: kelly@modernancientglass.com
