Weekend Art Challenge – Design Your Name

Welcome to our latest weekend art challenge on Designing Your Name. We knew that this would be a pretty tricky challenge, and we would like to say a big well done to all of you who participated. We are truly impressed with the level of creativity and ingenuity that was demonstrated.

Our featured image this week is by student Julie Smalley who, being an architecture buff, had a lot of fun doing it. Julie said –

Always wanted to carve out a name for myself. This one’s not set in stone though, so I could still improve it. My favourite Classical building. Therefore couldn’t resist the chance to take a few liberties. In pen and water-soluble pencil on watercolour paper.

We hope that everyone enjoyed this challenge. Stay tuned for a new Weekend Art Challenge posted here tomorrow.

I love nature! As I particularly like trees I chose to draw one using my name.

This is a mixed medium design using children’s & acrylic paint, dry watercolour pencils, sequins, a bindi, silver thread and a small material flower. I had so much fun designing & making this challenge.

My son, Shiven, was 9 when he created this pen-work last year. He made patterns around his name in Hindi; one of India’s official languages. The language is expressed in the Devnaagri script.
Thank you!
