☕🎨 Coffee & Art — next two weeks
There won’t be an official Coffee & Art with me for the next two Tuesdays. However, I know some of you would still like to meet next Tuesday at 18:30 Paris time, so let’s use the Open Studio instead! ❤️ I won’t be there myself, but you can still meet up, have a chat, and make some art together. Who’s planning to join next Tuesday at 18:30? Let us know in the comments or in the poll! 😊 And of course, you can use the Open Studio at any other time too. Just leave a message in the Open Studio post to say when you’ll be there, or, if it’s a last-minute idea, simply ask if anyone wants to join you. Happy creating, everyone! 🎨❤️

I plan to be there
☕🎨 Coffee & Art tonight!
We’re meeting tonight from 18:30–19:30 Paris time. Same time as normal. Who’s joining? ❤️ I just want to make sure we get everyone into the same room this time! Last time, some people clicked the link but ended up in a different room by themselves, while others were in another room together. It was very strange, and it seems the link didn’t work quite as it should. And this week, someone even received an email with the wrong time… so Skool is keeping us on our toes at the moment. 😅 So tonight I’m going to check that everyone is actually in the same room and that everything is working properly. If you’re planning to join, please let me know below. And if you said you were coming but can’t make it after all, please let me know that too. Of course, if you decide at the last minute that you’d like to join, you can always just come along, even if you didn’t let me know beforehand. ❤️ 👉 Important: Go to the Calendar and click on the Coffee & Art event. Please use that link to join. I’ll close the other room so hopefully we won’t have anyone accidentally ending up somewhere else! I’ll be there about 10 minutes early, so please try to be on time if you can. I’ll check that everyone who wants to join is actually in the right room. And what shall we do tonight? 🎨 Some ideas: - Watercolour again - Quick face sketches from magazines - Try caricatures — exaggerating the features of a face. I can explain a little bit about how that works. - Or we could make something for our Fall Challenge 🍂 But if you have another idea, let me know! Hopefully everything works smoothly tonight. 🤞😂 See you later — really looking forward to creating together! ❤️

My phone wasnt plugged in and no alarm. I slept in till 4pm our time! Im stick sick ugh but ive been doing watercolours in bed lol. Im using the paper my daughter made and it SUCKS in all moisure. Have to make it really wet before even appling paint. I see to turn watercolours into paint.... Im hoping to fill the book with pics and give it her back for xmas. I got paint on bedding lol oh well. Keeping me sane! 4wks in bed ugh... Its fun though as I havent had nevrve to play with my great grandfathers 1900 paint tray

I dont have an art instagram but here's my fb page if my art. Scroll down for my skilled area of clay and theres my crochet phase lol! Dont need to join fb to view. Gel prints are bit blah but Im proud of my pottery https://www.facebook.com/share/1Jhkzgeneb/ Ive been experimenting with modeling paste which seems like whipped cream to me! I was expecting it to be more like plaster. When i took this pic i saw it looks like someone in a black sheet chasing a fallen white sheet.

@Doreen Oke i bought two not cheap brands and theyre both like whipped cream, thick shaving foam or thick fluffy paint. Id hoped more pasty to form. Maybe because im a potter? Its like slip. Weird to form but fun is always in exploring new mediums. Its also messy lol very messy but that might be me ha ha!
🍂 October challenge: And the winner is… FALL / AUTUMN! 🍁
So, autumn has won our challenge! 🎉 But that definitely doesn’t mean you have to give up on the other ideas you loved. You can still make flowers — just give them a beautiful autumn twist. 🌻🍂 Love Halloween? 🎃 Of course you can go for it! Pumpkins, spooky vibes, autumn colours… it all fits perfectly. Want to make a whimsical children’s-book illustration? Absolutely! Just give it a fall theme. 🍄🦊🍁 And if you voted for something else, I’m sure you can find a way to bring your favourite idea into the autumn theme. So basically… fall gives us plenty of room to do our own thing. 😄 Have fun with it, experiment, and most importantly: make something you actually feel like making! ❤️🎨 I can’t wait to see what you all come up with! 🍂 Old: October is just around the corner, and before we start creating together, we thought it would be fun to let you decide the theme! Here are the ideas: 🏡 Home 🧺 Picnic 📚 Children’s Book Illustration 🌸 Flowers 🎃 Halloween 🍂 Fall / Autumn Vote for your favourite theme in the poll! You can choose the one that inspires you most, makes you curious, or simply sounds like fun. And as always, this challenge is open to all materials and all styles. Use watercolor, acrylics, oils, gouache, pencils, mixed media, collage, digital art… whatever you love working with. You can create: ✨ One piece ✨ Multiple pieces ✨ Small sketches ✨ Finished artworks There are no rules and no pressure — just a chance to create together, experiment, and fill October with art. Once the winning theme is chosen, we’ll create and share our work in the community using: #messyartsquadoctoberchallenge I can’t wait to see which theme wins! 🎨❤️

@Valérie Van Kraaij doing over time instead of rushing through them is where my real struggle lays. I tend to plough thru my art ideas rather than take my time

I was TRYING to do flowart with acrylic. Not what i was trying to do but great in its own right. I forgot to dot eyes with black dot so its a blind cat lol poor kitty. Its on a wee wood board. The lumpy is kids glue and paint. I made huge mess is an understatement lol
