Welcome to this weekends art challenge. We would love for you to create artwork around the cutest animal on the earth…a Panda Bear! We have left this challenge fairly open, so our students can create either a realistic painting or drawing or perhaps choose to make more of a cartoon or illustration style piece. It can be in any medium, colour or black and white, digital, collage or mixed media. Any style and any size.
We are very much looking forward to seeing your results. You can find lots of copyright free photos below. You could work from one single photo, or perhaps you might like to study the photos to get a sense of what a Panda is like and draw your own.
Let us know how you get on!! Have fun!

The idea of these challenges is to help students improve their skills by drawing, painting and creating regularly.
So try to submit work that you have created specifically for the challenge – or course work you are currently creating for your art course. Sometimes our challenge themes cross over with what students are learning. Our challenges are great practive for your coursework too!
Remember to submit your artwork to us via email if you would like it posted on our blog next week.

All of the photos we post on our London Art College Weekend Challenges are copyright free. Feel free to use the artwork you produce however you wish. If you would like your artwork posted here on our blog, email it to Melanie at techsupport@londonartcollege.co.uk. If you have any Weekend Challenge requests let us know too! Best of luck and happy drawing and painting!

For those who are new to our challenges, we post them every Friday, so that students have a chance to pick up their pencils, pens, brushes or tablets to create artwork in their downtime over the weekend.
The results are the posted here on our blog on the following Thursday.
We love it when students add text to go along side the artwork, we will always post it on the blog if included.

Email your artwork to us for inclusion on the blog next week. We sometimes take challenge posts submitted to our Facebook group to add to the collection, however we may miss some, so if you really want to see your work here, make sure you email it to us!
