What Shall I Paint?
If you aren't sure what to paint, you can use the lessons, photos, and drawings provided in this challenge, or use your own reference images, or even a mix of everything!
When can I get started?
Choose a time line that works best for you. You can even get started right now!
What if I can’t commit to painting and posting an eye a day ? Can I still join the challenge? Is it o.k. to drop in and out?
Yes!
Do what you can. It's ok to miss some days. The only "rule" is to have fun!
What if I can't Keep Up?
It's o.k. if you can't create 1 painting a day. Do it daily or every other day, or once a week. Whatever you decide, it will help you to be consistent. It’s about building your skills and forming positive habits, so the more consistent, the better. If you can do it every day, that’s the best. At first, it may seem awkward. It takes time to get in the rhythm, but eventually it will become part of your day. Repetition will build muscle memory and by the end of the challenge, you will be an ace at painting eyes!
Where Can I Find Reference Photos?
These are my three favorite sites that offer reference photos in the public domain. I recommend that you read the Terms of Use for each site before downloading photos.
