Mark Making is a simple way to learn to see beauty in anything. By practicing Mark Making you also learn in what ways you can use several art materials to create interesting looking images. It’s fun and in this video I explain how you can enter the painting challenge: try mark making, take pictures of what you made and submit them to be included in one of my future videos. Thanks in advance.

Painting Challenge: Mark Making
Submit your artwork on or before January 9, 2022.
The exercise is shown and explained in the video. You’re free to choose your art materials, size, color, the art tools you use or whatever. Complicated or simple, realistic or abstract, just surprise me. Whatever you do: enjoy the magic of making art and remember: create to express, not to impress. So any artistic level is okay. Be you and have fun making it.
Also mail me your first name and the country you live in, so I can put them next to your artwork in the video. I appreciate it very much when you also send me a line or two about what you experienced while making your artwork. Did you learn anything, enjoyed playing like this or ran into trouble? I just love to hear from you. Please submit your artwork before January 9, 2022. Just take your phone and snap a picture looking straight down at your artwork, preferably using daylight, but no direct sunlight on it.
