Art Every Day Month Sign Up
October 23rd, 2016
Art Every Day Month is once again right around the corner! This will be the 15th year I have been creating daily for the month of November and inviting others to join in. It is a low pressure challenge for anyone who wants to challenge themselves to create daily for a month. Low pressure means if you miss a day, brush yourself off, and get back to it. No worries. By art, I'm talking broadly. You could be cooking, taking pictures, dancing, writing music, crafting for the holidays, painting, sculpting, writing poetry, making jewelry, sewing, knitting, art journaling, you name it. You could decide to do a small 2"x2" drawing each day or you could do something different every day. Up to you! I tend to do more drawing and painting because that's what I like, but you can follow your heart. Just create!
This year, I'll mainly be posting my creations in the Facebook group where you can share your creations as well. If you're on Instagram or Facebook you can use the hashtag #aedm2016. I'll also have a post here on November 1st, where you can share links to creations you've made throughout the month.
Read more about the challenge here and then sign up below. Use the widget to sign up if you have a blog, flickr, or other page where you'll be sharing your Art Every Day Month creations. If you don't have a place to link to, simply comment below and say you're joining in!
The challenge begins November 1st!

I love Art Every Day of the Month because of the “no pressure” feel and because it includes ALL art! I’m looking forward to participating again this year!

would love to do this challenge, I don’t have a website though.

I have been spending so much time with harvesting and stocking my Wild Pantry that I haven’t had much time left for making art.
I loved doing this last year.
Once again, it is perfect timing.
Thanks for the sign up reminder.

Patti Jo, do you see the widget below to link to your blog? All you have to do is create every day in November and if you’d like, you can share a link to your blog posts about it here or share pictures in the Facebook group or on Flickr or instagram. Up to you!

Looking forward to keeping my creativity going every day for the month of November (continuing what I did during June & July for Index-Card-A-Day and October for Inktober). I might even get my blog up and running again for this challenge! Cheers!

Oh I am SO in! I don’t know if I’ve ever quite managed to make a piece of art every day in November, but one of these years I’ll do it!
No, really, getting it mostly done is good enough. New art is new art.
