Week 7: Composition
Hello dear readers, how have you all been? I hope that you’re doing well.
Have you ever participated in an art challenge on Instagram? I’ve gotten the chance to a few times now. This blog will be about my first time participating in one. I wanted to take advantage of the art challenge but also practice doing composition since this was the next subject on my list.

This art challenge took place in September of 2022 and was called ‘Sweetembers’ it had an autumn theme to it. I used the themes provided and I also used a couple of characters that I have made. These characters are based on past pets; my cat and my husband’s dog. We loved them both dearly and still remember them fondly. In a way, I wanted to honor their memory by illustrating them as cute little characters. (I’m getting on a tangent now so I will discuss more about this on another blog.)
Anyway, I wanted to practice my composition skills. I feel like my compositions all ended up being quite similar, because I only made the characters as the main focus. It ended up looking a bit boring to me. I kind of wished that I moved them around on the page a bit more, but they still did look cute. I know that I need to come back to this art practice because I definitely need to learn to create different types of composition. At the end of the day, it was a good first try.
I made a video that goes more into depth about this particular art challenge. You can check out my video here:

This is a short blog for today, but I hope that you still enjoyed it nonetheless. Take care, cozies!
