A3 it helps me experience the world in a new way everyday. #K12ArtChat

StephanieRosieG Jan 19 @ 9:55 PM EST

A3 Comfort zones breed stagnation. When we take risks creatively we find an endless source of creativity. #K12ArtChat

cvarsalona Jan 19 @ 9:55 PM EST

A3 @k12artchallenge Fearless risk-taking allows us to step beyond our comfort zone. #k12artchat

In reply to @k12artchallenge

timneedles - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:56 PM EST

Q4 The January #K12artchallenge is a 15 second challenge, what are the benefits of restricting response time? #k12artchat

k12artchallenge Jan 19 @ 9:57 PM EST

A4: Everyone has 15 seconds to spare! Right?? #K12ArtChat

k12artchallenge Jan 19 @ 9:57 PM EST

A4: Seriously though, there are many benefits to repeated quick sketches including skill building & adds a bit of character too! #K12ArtChat

timneedles - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:57 PM EST

A4 I think time limits can help boost you creativity & help you think outside the box in #art #k12artchat

joycschultz Jan 19 @ 9:57 PM EST

#k12ArtChat A4 the challenge is similar to warmups we ask of our Ss.

ArtWithMrE Jan 19 @ 9:57 PM EST

A4: it forces you to react & not over think. #k12ArtChat

spiraledu Jan 19 @ 9:57 PM EST

Thinking since its -40, might try to do blown bubbles ice sculpture or try throwing colored hot water to vaporize it #K12Artchat

In reply to @epesART

tmeyerart Jan 19 @ 9:57 PM EST

A4: have to think about it before the timer starts and then I don't erase because there is no time!!! #K12ArtChat

A4b...except me....I overthink everything...always.. #k12ArtChat

joycschultz Jan 19 @ 9:58 PM EST

#k12ArtChat

mdeHSD Jan 19 @ 9:58 PM EST

A4: Restricting art time gets rid of "I don't have time" excuse. When you focus on simply creating it is joyful. #k12artchat

shinebrite71 Jan 19 @ 9:58 PM EST

A4- there isn't!😜 #K12ArtChat

cvarsalona Jan 19 @ 9:58 PM EST

Agree-Sharing art on SM moves art and creativity to the public arena. #k12artchat

In reply to @timneedles

tigher79 Jan 19 @ 9:58 PM EST

A4: Learn to let loose and be free of restrictions and self criticism. #K12ArtChat

MonaLisaLvsHeah Jan 19 @ 9:59 PM EST

A4 Spontaneity can bring delightful, unexpected results. Not having enough time for perfection can be very freeing #k12artchat

StephanieRosieG Jan 19 @ 10:00 PM EST

A4 Time limits also prevent overthinking--maybe a little subconscious creation bubbles to the surface! #K12ArtChat

cvarsalona Jan 19 @ 10:00 PM EST

A4 restricting response time allows our creative urges to be spontaneous reactions. #K12ArtChat

shinebrite71 Jan 19 @ 10:00 PM EST

A4- I remember doing 15 second gesture drawings in freshman figure drawing on 18x24 sheets. The poor damn trees! #K12ArtChat

spiraledu Jan 19 @ 10:01 PM EST

15 seconds means you have to focus RIGHT NOW. Would be a good way to get the stragglers up and atom! #K12artchat

In reply to @timneedles

timneedles - Moderator Jan 19 @ 10:01 PM EST

A4 Picasso & Matisse were masters of the quick sketch! #K12ArtChat

epesART Jan 19 @ 10:01 PM EST

A4 creativity thrives w/constraint. Those outside of arts think it's free for all. This can be intimidating 2 creative process. #K12ArtChat

timneedles - Moderator Jan 19 @ 10:02 PM EST

Q5 Some prompts are more concrete than others- is it important to stick to the prompt? #k12artchat

mdeHSD Jan 19 @ 10:02 PM EST

Yes, I think we could all benefit from more spontaneity in our lives. Too much structure gets dull! #K12ArtChat

cvarsalona Jan 19 @ 10:00 PM EST

A4 restricting response time allows our creative urges to be spontaneous reactions. #K12ArtChat

k12artchallenge Jan 19 @ 10:03 PM EST

A5: The prompts are a starting point, I don't think it matters it takes you! Post whatever you created! #K12ArtChat

timneedles - Moderator Jan 19 @ 10:03 PM EST

A5 I generally think that #art is organic & I let the work give direction so sometimes a prompt can just be an inspiring idea! #k12artchat

ArtWithMrE Jan 19 @ 10:03 PM EST

A5: a prompt can cause the creative mind to go in a variety of places...which is the fun of it! #k12ArtChat

MonaLisaLvsHeah Jan 19 @ 10:03 PM EST

A5 Not at all! The prompt is a springboard to wherever it takes you with the medium of your choice #k12artchat

shinebrite71 Jan 19 @ 10:03 PM EST

A5- it's a starting point. Most important thing is you're active creatively and continue to push yourself #K12ArtChat

cvarsalona Jan 19 @ 10:04 PM EST

A5 Prompts are meant to channel thinking. It is interesting to see how we react to the prompt and then see how others do too. #K12ArtChat

LaurenWellArt Jan 19 @ 10:04 PM EST

A4 it's a quick sketch of what you see. A developing skill. #k12artchat

thelmagrace Jan 19 @ 10:04 PM EST

A5 the point is to create so let it go where creativity drives it #K12ArtChat

spiraledu Jan 19 @ 10:04 PM EST

A6 I've been trying out these fast drawings in just this way this semester. Great way to warm up the brain. #K12ArtChat

A6: Creativity challenges are great "bell ringers" or "warm ups." Who knows what they might lead to! #K12ArtChat

LaurenWellArt Jan 19 @ 10:12 PM EST

A6 I have a game called whatchamadrawit that I use for the warm ups. The cards are silly prompts. The kids love drawing them. #K12ArtChat

A3 Comfort zones breed stagnation. When we take risks creatively we find an endless source of creativity. #K12ArtChat

tmeyerart Jan 19 @ 9:57 PM EST

A4: have to think about it before the timer starts and then I don't erase because there is no time!!! #K12ArtChat
