When I set the Lavender Purple challenge, I wasn’t sure how this would pan out this week as this color really did scare me a little, but I have to say i think this was the most fun week. Maybe because we could add the other colors if we wanted with that little extra freedom or perhaps because i was in the swing of creating as part of this challenge. I hope you all enjoyed your final week as much as I did. Please check out the rest of the fabulous entries in the
flick group here.
Here’s my final entry. Mixed Media on 8×8 stretched canvas. i used collage papers, ribbon, buttons, pen, plaster. Really loved making this piece. I incorporated all the challenge colors except for Raspberry red! The scan is a little blurry because of the raised objects.
What an absolute joy to see all of the purple colors mixed in when I took a look at flickr today. So much purple divineness. Thanks again everyone for taking the time to create and be part of this. So many creative souls. 🙂
So yes this is it! The Creative Color Challenge is over for August. I will be posting a final wrap up in the form of a little screenshow movie tomorrow night which will also be posted on youtube, so I hope everyone is okay with me including one or many of your creations to showcase what a great experience this has been.
(if you do not want to be included for some reason, thats okay just email me asap). Everyone who has participated will be credited in the movie. Ill also be announcing the randomly selected participant who wins a little colorful goody for taking part on tomorrow nights post.
Enjoy the rest of your Saturday everyone and please check back tomorrow for the final Creative Color Challenge Wrap Up. I’d also love to get your final comments and reviews on taking part then too. 🙂
This weeks color was a challenge, but it ended up being one of my favorite art pieces I've made, so thank you!
Esther

Louise, I absolutely love your piece! Just like you, I was scared of purple at first, but then I had so much fun as well!!
Thank you for hosting this challenge, thanks to you I've found back to creating on a more regular scale. I've enjoyed this so very much!
A really 'foreign' colour choice for me too, but really enjoyed the exercise. Thanks for welcoming me in so late in the challenge and thanks to you Louise for putting in all that work in organising as well as producing great contributions to the themes, I too love the one you have done for this week
I worked like crazy to finish my lavender entry and upload it to Flickr in time. I am not the fastest of painters… but this challenge was REALLY fun to participate in! I'm sad that it is over…
Thanks so much for the inspiration–and for “challenging” us to paint in different colors we may not always use… I'm not really a purple person but I love how my girl came out. So much FUN to look at all of the great art, different mediums in the same color and to see other people's interpretation of it!
Great job Louise and thanks for connecting all of us in such a creative/art way! Your art is lovely.
xoxo Valerie

OMG! I can't believe you posted my flower for this weeks wrap up! I feel truly honored to have had my work posted in TWO wrap-ups for this challenge, especially since I felt my flower was such a simple thing….
Louise, your final piece looks wonderful – so fun and playful! Will it be up for sale at your etsy shop?
This color challenge project was great fun and I would definitely participate if it was held annually! I'm looking forward to the final slide show =-)

Louise, you are the Color Challenge Queen! Your art is beautiful and thoughtful, and your idea to have this challenge was inspiring.
I'm so glad I participated, even if a few pieces were hurried. The main part was I did it and it brought me back to why practice of anything you love is important. And to see what others are doing out in the big world was fun!! So much talent.
