Status: offline 		Yeah come on people... I though with how many of you were doing this you'd be posting your canvases finished here so everyone could see!!!!

Leave it to artists to wait last minutes.

What's wrong? Word block!? LMAO

Status: online 		I haven't started mine yet, am stuck for ideas on "Aesthetic" and "Process" :( I found an alternate meaning for Process, it can also refer to a bone growth or something, guess I could do that one.

Status: offline 		I'm such a procrastinator.   Actually life has been crazy busy, but I am starting these later in the week. I've been mulling it over in my head for the last couple months so I should have them done up pretty quick, and I will post mine when they are finished.

Has anyone else made any progress? Anyone done yet?

Status: online 		If you're not used to working that small, just keep it very simple. Don't forget, it doesn't have to be a painting, it can be collage, mixed media, etc. I saw one of the entries had some furry stuff on it (I don't know what the word was) You had some good words too, I know you can do this.

Does anyone know offhand if it has to be postmarked by 7/1 or received by 7/1? I could look it up but am feeling a teensy bit lazy right now, thought I'd ask if someone happens to know.

Status: online 		I just finished the underpainting for #3 (process)!

I wonder how (if) they're going to check to be sure that the art illustrates the word correctly. For Process I had to go with "processed" instead, although I could work the actual word process into an explanation, which they don't ask for.
