Sweet Arts with Syl

Hello Kitten Academicians, it’s Syl!

I hope everyone had a good start to their year! It’s February which means the first art prompt of the year, KA Sweethearts 2023, is here. One of the first things I do when I’m thinking of terms for an art prompt is check the random “holidays” that occur in that month. February of course has Valentine’s Day, but more importantly is February 20th, National Love Your Pet Day. I also learned that February itself is National Cat Health month so maybe give your cat an extra treat or two on the 20th but not too many! To participate this month, please use the hashtag #KASweethearts2023 on Twitter or post your work in the arts-and-crafts channel in the Discord server for Patreon members. 

We wrapped up the art prompts of 2022 with KA Winter Wonderland which showed the kittens playing in snow, building snowmen and decorating for the holidays. Below you will find submissions from that prompt as well as October’s. Thank you to everyone that participated and encouraged each other last year!

If anyone has questions or ideas for future community art events please comment them down below! You can also contact me on Twitter and Discord (@Sylhouettes).

Arts and Cats at the Pumpkin Patch

Hello Kitten Academicians, it’s Syl!

We’re now approaching 3 years of Kitten Academy themed art prompts with the first one being “KA Inktopurr” in 2019. At the time, I had no idea what I was getting into but I wanted to stir up the creatives in the community and see more KA related fanart. Now, we have a regularly active, multi-talented art community. I think it was a successful last minute idea! Over the years I’ve adjusted the schedule and right now every other month feels like the best routine that hits major holidays and seasonal changes.

Speaking of holidays and seasonal changes - October’s art prompt is “Pumpkin Patch” themed and includes many things you’d expect to find at one, as well as some additional fall related terms! To participate please tweet your creation using the hashtag #KAPumpkinPatch2022. If you’re not a Twitter user you can post your work in the arts-and-crafts channel in the Kitten Academy Discord for Patreon subscribers. 

In August, we had “KA Back to School” which was hosted exclusively through the Discord server. Our creative community is regularly active, allowing members to compliment and discuss each other's art in a contained manner across various hobbies.

I greatly appreciate and thank everyone that participates in these prompts and brings their own creative aspirations to the community. I can’t wait to see what you have in store for Kitten Academy’s trip to the Pumpkin Patch!

Below you’ll find submissions from earlier this year featuring our Back to School prompt, as well as KA Beach Party 2022

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