Awaken The Artist Art & Coloring Challenge – Day 1/21

Welcome to the Awaken The Artist 21 Day Art and Coloring Challenge.

Today is Day 1 and so far I’m having fun livestreaming from various social media platforms including my Facebook personal profile, Awaken The Artist business page, Awaken The Artist Art & Coloring Group (request to join), Periscope (wendygyoung) and Instagram (wendygyoung).

I am posting my daily livestreaming links on this blog so you will be able to see all the art I create for the challenge. To view the videos on these platforms it might be necessary to like or follow my pages and profiles. The links will remain visible until the end of September for sure to provide inspiration for your creative journey.

So if you feel the urge to create art and feel stuck in some way this is a great opportunity to jump in and get your creativity flowing again. I expect to be personally transformed in this process and if you jump in and really participate I expect the same for you as well.

So without further adieu here are all the links to Day 1 …

This is my first video on my artist page where I am announcing the challenge

I also created an Instagram Intro about who I am and what I’m doing here.

Being a little silly as I create my first Instagram video. It cut me off. Oops!

Okay this has nothing at all to do with the challenge however I was feeling silly and courageous after making it through the first day and wanted to test out the Instagram Boomerang ap with my sweet dog Simba 🙂

DRAWING VIDEO 1 (Facebook)

I created this drawing using a pencil and a small canvas so I could complete it in one session. I am planning to paint it in another video session. Here is a photo of the completed drawing 1:
