We’re kicking off Week 5 in the #2026CalendarChallenge Quick Refresher: Each week you’ll create a visual snapshot of the month that’s breathing through you. Any medium works: collage, paint, digital, found objects… the process matters more than the polished product. **The Core Principle** - One visual piece per week, representing the *feel* of that month. - Embrace experimentation, not perfection. - Turn “I want to be creative” into “I’m actually creating.” **Week 5 – May** - **Core Theme:** *Sensory Overload* - **Prompt:** *“What is overwhelming me right now?”* - **Ideas:** bursting blossoms, buzzing bees, Mother’s Day ribbons, city noise, a packed inbox… whatever floods your senses. **Optional Creative Exercise** Capture the abundance of the senses. Try collage, mixed media, or abstract forms that let texture, sound, scent and color collide on the page. --- Are you in? Drop a reply with a quick “I’m joining” or share a sneak‑peek of what you’ll be working on this week. Let’s light up 2026 together, one week at a time. Share what you've done with #2026CalendarChallenge so we can celebrate the New Year together! #grownostr #artstr #art
