STRIPED SOCKS. Sign up now.

Artist: Darlene Shiels?


Click your heels together and conjure up something striped. STRIPED SOCKS, to be exact. That's the new theme and you have until Tuesday, May 10th, to make sure it's pretty yarn good. :)

Thank you to those of you who played along and welcome to our newest contributors, Kathy, Sue, and Claudia! How wonderful was that to have fresh blood, as it were, for our cute lil' monsters theme? Fun!

UPDATE to CREATIVE TUESDAYS:
  • Post artwork related to Creative Tuesdays' theme only.
  • Keep written posts related to the art and easy to read.
  • Avoid adding extra links, art, pics, videos, etc, unless related to your piece.
  • Be sure to visit everyone signed up.
This is intended to keep our co-op fun and less confusing/time-consuming for visitors, while maintaining our brand. Thank you for playing along, linking back here and visiting each other. Your support helps many of us not just continue creating art but trying out new things when seeing all the ways a theme can be interpreted. You make Creative Tuesdays!

      So glad too that the theme seems fun to you. If you like it initially it does rather make doing some art for it far more engaging. :)

      You have? have we done this theme before or maybe you;ve jsut illustrated striped sock before? As it is, I was thinking this theme lends itself perfectly to your style, Lissa. So hope you can join in and if not, maybe you can leave a note here that you've coloured in one of your older pieces a little more? That would be a lovely alternative.

    Michael, it sounds like an easy prompt on the surface but one never knows. LOL. I'm going to try and participate but no promises. 😊

    I enjoyed trying to follow the theme last month. I think this one is a little easier for me. Need to post here when there is a link.

      Looking forward to seeing waht you;ve done, Kathy. Yes, the sign up is up now. I tend to put it up on Monday nights and then we have all the way until Tuesday late evening MST. Thank you for checking.

      And, yes, I deliberately made this theme easier for any newbies out there as well as always trying to alternate it so some or more left to the imagination perhaps whilst others can be interpreted more literally, if you will. :)
