June - Clouds
Your challenge for June is to recreate the beauty and variety of “CLOUDS”. Look to the sky and observe the different kinds of clouds from stratus, to cumulus, to cirrus. They are all amazing. Notice the colors and the contrasting lights and darks. It’s also fun to look for images in the clouds. Use your favorite medium/s to capture what you see or photograph clouds during different times of the day and weather conditions. If you come up with that perfect cloud photo, consider entering it in our Photography Competition starting this month. Please post your artistic ideas and completed artwork on our Facebook page. And tag #parrishartscouncil on Instagram. Express and share your creativity. We are looking forward to seeing what everyone shares. For more information, check out the Call to Artist link on our website parrishartscouncil.org. If you have an idea for a future challenge, contact us, getinvolved@parrishartscouncil.org.
