#KAFloofyFebruary2022 — Mewspaper

Hello Kitten Academicians!

It’s Sylvie again and I’m here to tell you about this month's art prompt, Artsy April 2022. This time around, the terms on the prompt were mainly chosen by you, the community. Thank you so much to everyone that gave us suggestions for the prompt, we look forward to getting the community more involved in the future. If you want to participate in this month’s prompt, all you have to do is create with whatever medium you enjoy and post it to Twitter using the hashtag #KAArtsyApril2022. If you’re not a Twitter user, you are also welcome to post your work in the arts-and-crafts channel in Discord. We can’t wait to see all of your creations this month. I hope you’ll join us, even if only one day inspires you. Lastly, don’t forget - have fun, don’t stress and if it stops being fun, take a break!

Below, you’ll find the submissions from the previous art month, Floofy February. Thank you so much to everyone that participated! If you would like to see all of the other fun and floofy artworks click here.

Does Artsy April sound familiar? We also did one in 2020!

Hello Kitten Academicians!

My name is Sylvie and I’m the “Syl” responsible for creating the Kitten Academy art prompts. I’ve been creating these art prompts since October 2019 as a way to engage the community and give you all a creative outlet. Over the past couple years, we have seen some great pieces created by the community and will be continuing to find ways to welcome newcomers and encourage participation. At the end of this blog I’ll be showing you some community submissions from the last two art prompts — Spooky Sketches 2021 and December Doodles 2021.

Typically, each prompt is themed and includes terms for every day of the associated month. This month is Floofy February and to participate you can use the hashtag #KAFloofyFebruary2022. As Mr. A said in the previous art blog, you can participate however you want using whatever medium you enjoy. While the idea comes from traditional art prompts, we consider these as creative opportunities for those of all skills, talents and interest in our community. We have seen entries using various mediums as well as nail painting, photoshop, crochet pieces and poems just to name a few. As a creative person myself, I understand how ideas come and go randomly so I don’t want anyone to feel as though they must stick to specific rules. Personally, I like to combine multiple days and I’ve noticed other participants do the same as well. There is no requirement to participate every day, and I find that combining days creates fun ideas while also helping to prevent burnout. I don’t have many rules but the ones I find the most important are — have fun, don’t stress & if it stops being fun take a break!

Speaking of taking a break, it has been a while since the last art blog was posted. As you know, Mr. A has his hands full of kittens almost all the time now and to keep these running on schedule, I’ll be creating the art submission blogs from now on. Please look forward to the rest of the community creations this month as well as our next prompt that will be scheduled for April!

To see all the amazing entries from the last two prompts check out these hashtags on Twitter — #KASpookySketches2021 and #KADecemberDoodles2021.

If you would like to know more about upcoming prompts and activities, you can find me on Twitter (@Sylhouettes) as well as the Kitten Academy discord for Patreon subscribers.
