We are delighted to share a very special message from London Art College student Ozlem Ertylan, one of our most dedicated Weekend Art Challenge students.
Ozlem has now sent us around 100 paintings for the Weekend Art Challenge, which is a remarkable achievement. She wrote to us recently to say:
“You know how important the London Art College Weekend Challenges are to me. For someone like me, passionate about art, though with limited talent, they are an absolute blessing. I’ve shared around 100 paintings with you so far, and I want to thank you very much for everything. Thank you once again a thousand times for supporting my creativity and keeping me motivated!”
Thank you, Ozlem, it has been an absolute pleasure! We do have to disagree on one point though. From everything we have seen over those hundred challenges, your talent is anything but limited. Your work has shown real care, a lovely eye for colour, and creativity. It has been a joy to watch your confidence grow week by week.
Ozlem also sent us this fantastic photograph of her workspace, and we couldn’t resist sharing it. We always encourage students to take photos of their desk, work area and materials. They make a lovely record of your artistic journey, and they are a brilliant source of inspiration for other students too. Seeing how someone else sets up their space, which colours they reach for and how they organise their tools can spark all sorts of new ideas. If you would like to share a photo of your own creative space, we would love to see it!
Ozlem, we have truly loved seeing your Weekend Art Challenge entries over the past hundred weeks, and we hope you have enjoyed every one of them as much as we have. We are excited for you as you now turn your focus to your Watercolour course, and we can’t wait to see what you create next. Enjoy every moment of it!
