If you caught my last post, it’s been a bit of a bummer for me that I’ve had to delay the Birthstone Goddesses Calendar. I was really looking forward to that for bookending this years-long project. And so my solution is to fill my brain with happy chemicals by participating for my first-ever Art Fight event for July!
What is Art Fight?
It’s an annual art trading event that happens in July! Two teams compete against one another by earning points via drawing art trades of peoples’ characters. The teams are inconsequential and are only there to encourage people to earn as many points as possible. You’re free to pick and draw whatever character you want that other artists have shared. 3D, 2D, and crafts are allowed, so it’s a great chance to get creative!
I’m kinda sad I’ve never joined in by now. I used to think you had to draw in the theme of the teams, but this is untrue. You can draw whatever you like according to the character design and what the artists guidelines are. The more detail you add, the more points you’ll earn for your team.
Go Team Werewolf!
I’m Team Werewolf this year, which amuses me greatly, considering I’ve been somewhat of a career Vampire the Masquerade player when I was younger. You can change teams if you want, but I figured I’d give my fuzzy bois a chance!
You can see my profile here, should you want to Attack me. I’ve been trying to reciprocate all Attacks with a Revenge art trade! I have a few of my favorite original characters on offer, from my newest exuberant Barbarian gal, Rabs, to my oldest foul-mouthed tattooed elf character, Aurora.

So far, this has been a great chance to practice my skills and enjoy the simple joy of drawing cool characters and bringing a smile to another artist. I’ll share a big wrap up of all the portraits I’m doing at the end of the month.
Are you in on the Art Fight this year? Feel free to share your profile in the comments!
In the meanwhile, keep an eye on my socials where I’m sharing the AF timelapses:
