This is the first time I am encoring a swap. The last one turned out awesome. :) For this swap you will create an original piece of artwork for one partner. As the title implies, it should be ready to hang on the wall. That means framed, or done on a back-stapled stretched canvas, or a piece of wood with a hanger on the back, or something along those lines. Medium is up to you, but it must be an original work, no reproductions (photography is fine since a photographic print is considered an original art work, but please sign the photo). You can be as creative with this as you want to be. It doesn't have to be a painting or drawing. You can do collage, fiber art, a hanging wall sculpture, mosaic, shadowbox, or something entirely different. Please take into account your partner's likes and dislikes when creating art for them and try to do something you think they would like. The size of the artwork (without the frame) should be at least 24 square inches (multiply the width by the height to get the total square inches). If you use a frame it need not be expensive, but please do not use a cheap looking frame with corners coming apart or somthing. Thrift stores, outlet stores, IKEA, even dollar stores often have nice frames for very little. This swap is open to artists of all experience and skill levels. Don;t be scared to challenge yourself! Making art is good for everyone. :) Swappers must have a rating of 4.8 or higher and at least 3 rated swaps (letter, email and postcard swaps not included in that figure). Please fill out your profile well so that your partner can get a feel for your tastes. I won't go through the swapper list till the end, so if you think you might have the ratings by then, go ahead and sign up. I reserve the right to ban suspicious swappers. I want everyone to get something!! |
