can we get another another game going? (weekly themes)

I really like the TAG game (even though I feel vastly underqualified to participate!). But I thought maybe we could do another sort of game and have a weekly theme thread? What do ya'll think? We could just post bunches of pics under a general theme? I would love to see everyones interpretations! Also it would be good practice for me too! I'd also be happy to organize it if you like! (you will have to decide on the theme though so post your ideas!)





Edited to ADD**

~Running THEME list~

something with a bulldozer in it!
Insane Clowns
Jacques Cousteau's under the sea adventures!
Paint a stranger on the street and take a pic... photogs do this but without the painting... they meet a stranger, learn a story, take a pic and share.*
Office Supplies/Office Space
Things you Wouldn't want painted on your face!
If I had a Million Dollars
Scary week
Sugar and spice week
Jungle week
Hide a facial feature
Butterfly week

favorite team/band logo
rock 'n roll
Ren fest
Gothic
the state you live in

your zodiac sign

(post your idea on the thread to get it on the list!)

Sounds like fun.... like we could PM the organizer with ideas.... Organizer picks one...
"This week's Face-off, for those brave enough to accept is... Design must include part of the neck or ear, use no black or white, and have at least one bulldozer in it!"
And we have fun posting! I love the challenges and games. They have done wonders for me... who posted asking how to be creative. I feel so comfortable with trying things now!
Yay forum!

maybe we could just take turns hosting the threads each week and then the person hosting can choose the theme? or we could also make a running list of themes we WANT too for the thread hoster to choose from!

Run with this one April! Sounds like fun.

Yep! Def sounds good!

... only if April promises to show us what she paints...no matter how pants she thinks it is...

of course I'll be posting pics you goof LJ! Well if I can figure it out that is! Off to see if I can find the info somewhere!

If anyone has ideas for themes PLEASE post them here! (when I start the weekly thread I will turn this thread into a running list thread and put it in the first post)

I'm happy to start the thread every week and go down a list of themes, but if you want to take turns that's cool too! I think the former might be better but I will think on it and come up with something soon!

insane clowns!

hehe! good one! I will start a list!

Um... didn't I just name the first one???? Why is it no one wants to paint a bulldozer... geesh! I'll paint a bulldozer on that little guy's belly! lol

Okay... for real... Brainstorming session:

Jacques Cousteau's under the sea adventures!
Paint a stranger on the street and take a pic... photogs do this but without the painting... they meet a stranger, learn a story, take a pic and share.
Office Supplies/Office Space
Things you Wouldn't want painted on your face!
If I had a Million Dollars
Scary week
Sugar and spice week
Jungle week
Hide a facial feature
Okay... it obligatory... Butterfly week!

I'd better get back to work.....

There was a game that kind of died on face book, was going through the alphabet, each time period everyone submit something that started with the current letter, I guess this would kind of conflict with this game but it's an idea for maybe yet another one?

That sounds cool metzpah!

I added your ideas to the list Jen, INCLUDING the bulldozer!

adding a few more!

flowers & vines
yin and yang
zombies!!!!!!!!
favorite team/band logo
rock 'n roll
Ren fest/Gothic

the state you live in
your favorite food
spring
your zodiac sign

I'll open this sometime in the next week or so. For now I'd like to try to get more interest generated..if you have an idea post it!

Match your jammies
lizzards and bugs
different types of flowers.
The lyrics to "My Favorite Things"

inspired by a painting/art piece
inspired by a song
inspired by a cartoon/cgi character
inspired by your favorite book (or pick a book and paint something based on that book specifically)
7 wonders of the world
based on a specific place (like Las Vegas or Salt Lake City or New York...)

I think this is a great idea! Maybe it will get me painting on a more regular schedule... will it be a new thread posted each time and will you put a 'notification' here? (or just keep an eye out for it?)

I love all the challenges and always participate because it's really pushing me creatively. I've always just copied the pictures I've seen, but now I'm finding myself starting to change things here and there and even create faces from scratch, so bring on more challenges!

you were serious about the bulldozer! LOL

Love the "state you are from" theme

If not already suggested, how about-

Birds
using a stick on gem (or multiple gems) in your design.

Debi, I wanted to the the bulldozer too!
How about favorite movie?
favorite Saturday cartoon or TV show growing up
Sea creatures?
Mardi Gras?
... and with the NCAA tourney coming up in March How about March Madness week?
(March Madness hits NC hard!
**singing**......I got a basketball jones)

Best use of "Bling" type glitter gel would be nice.

Oh - this is exciting!!! I want to play!

Ok... when to we start???????????

How about painting with your 'other' hand? I don't know any other way to say it without using more words. I'm right handed, so a challenge for me would be to paint with my left...that sorta thing...it would have to be totally honor system though.
