Simply Orange

Okay, so this seems a bit ridiculous after yesterday's post...but I couldn't resist!

We are one week away from the Searching for Roy G Biv Challenge. And in case it isn't completely obvious... the challenge color this month is orange.

For those of you just stumbling upon this you can read about the challenge rules here.

As some of you may already know, I am offering an incentive to play this game with Jennifer and me. Each month, I will be creating a piece of fabric in the challenge color. I started painted some color backgrounds last night.

The piece I'm envisioning will have a bit of nature printing and some block printing.

In order to have an opportunity to win this piece, you have to post at least one photograph (taken by you) highlighting the color orange. You will need to post a comment on this blog or on Jennifer's blog and either one of us will link back to your blog (or website or Flickr page). So this is also an opportunity for more people to find out about you and your artwork.

Now, I know that some of you may not have a blog, website or Flickr page and may still want to play. In that case, email me with your photo(s) attached and I will either post them here or to my Flickr page. Hmm...you are now saying...how do I email Julie? Well, if you sign up for my newsletter (see the top of the right hand column of this blog), I will be emailing you a free list of ideas for surface design in the kitchen...and voila! you will have my email.

So enough of the hype...I hope you will consider playing, just for the fun of it...just for the opportunity to get out and about ...to take a good look at your surroundings and snap a few photos...

Can't wait to see all the orange next Thursday!
