Art Association Paintings

Win Artsy Stuff: February Art Association Contest!

We had such a fabulous response to last month’s Art Association that Erin of artsocial, my AA partner and I immediately started choosing artists and planning for the next few rounds.  I know everyone loved Christina Baker’s work and pinned like nobody’s business to win that lovely little painting! ( PS– Christina’s work will be available in our first exhibition & sale, which begins tomorrow! )  I think you’re going to love this month’s catalyst & prize just as much!  My own pinboard was incredibly fun & inspiring to put together– I didn’t want to stop pinning, but somebody has to write this here blog.

If you’re new to Art Association, here’s the lowdown– You create a Pinterest board around one work of art ( which we provide ), filled with anything and everything that pops into your mind while gazing at the catalyst piece.

So without further ado, I present to you, dear Artsies, your catalyst artwork for this month’s AA, Yellow Rose No. 2 by Emily Jeffords!

Here’s how Art Association works–

Step 1|  We give you a piece of artwork, this month’s work is Yellow Roses No. 2 by Emily Jeffords ( above ).

Step 2 | You create a Pinterest board titled Art Association, like mine here, where you pin any and all images you associate with the featured artwork ( like word associations, only visual )– here’s a sneak peek at some of my associations

Step 3 | Leave a link to your Art Association pinboard in the Comments section of this post

Step 4 | Follow both art social and Artsy Forager on Pinterest ( if you already are, you’re ahead of the game! )

Here’s what you can win–

The pinner who is deemed the winner ( hee ) will be the proud new owner of this beautiful Emily Jeffords original lithograph!  Stem + Orchid is an original lithograph and comes matted for an overall size of 12″ x 13″.  Wouldn’t this be a lovely addition to a gallery wall or propped prettily on a bookcase?! **

The pinner with the best Art Association board ( as judged by me and Erin ) will be chosen on Wednesday, February 27th at 5pm (mountain standard time).  I’m looking forward to seeing all the creative associations you come up with!  Ooooh, I just thought of another one!

Ready, set.. PIN!!

**So sorry but the contest is open to US residents only.  I know.  Pooh.

Would you like your artwork to be featured as an Art Association subject?  Shoot me an email atartsyforager@att.net or Erin an email at artsocialonline@gmail.com for more info.
