Artspiration

Hey Everyone!

For this swap I am calling to all the artists out there! This is to help get our creative juices flowing and get us back into our art! You will have 1 partner.

Once you join, post in the comments 3 Words. For example you could post:

• Clouds
• Sharks
• Piñatas

Then, when you are assigned your partners, you will come back to the comments and see what words they posted. Create a piece of art that uses all 3 of the words! Once you've created your masterpiece you will package it and mail it to your partner!

You can use any medium you are comfortable with, watercolor, markers, paint, even digital.

If you decide to go digital, just print your art out first before you send it, that way your partner is receiving a nice, physical, piece of art in the mail!

If you don't have a printer there are many places you can go to get art printed such as Office Max, Fed Ex, or possibly even your library!

Some things to consider:

• Make sure your art is on something sturdy like cardstock. Printer paper isn't going to cut it!
• Do not bend or fold your art!
• The art needs to be at least 4" x 6". You can make it bigger, just keep in mind postage costs.
• If you use a medium that tends to transfer, like pastels, make sure you are sealing it so it doesn't create a mess, or put it in something like a clear sleeve.
• You don't have to be a professional artist to join, just have fun and create!

If you want to turn your art into a notecard or postcard, that's super fun as well! There is a lot of creative freedom here, just follow all of the established rules and you are good to go!

Everyone who has a well filled out profile and hasn't had any recent 1's (within the last 6 months) is welcome to join in the fun!

As long as you receive the minimum requirements and it was sent on time, please rate a 5 and PLEASE rate as soon as you receive! Because this is a Newbie Friendly swap, it's even more important to not leave your partners hanging when it comes to rating! Hearts are up to you! Consider the time, effort, and energy that went into the art, then decide what you feel is deserved!

This is going to be USA ONLY. If this goes well I will do an international one next!

Don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns! I will angel if necessary, but will be vetting participants so hopefully we can avoid any issues! HAVE FUN!
