More About DF&F 52
A few more notes about the DF&F 52 project:
Update: Check out the interview with Jeff over at The Fiberglass Manifesto. There’s a nice slideshow of all of Jeff’s work from the 2011 project year there, too.
As discussed previously, Jeff and I are pre-announcing each week’s fish and/or fly ahead of time. We are doing that so that (hopefully) a few readers with brushes of their own will follow along. If you happen to fall into that category, please try to either link back to one or both of our blogs, or post a link to your blog in our comment areas. We’d like to see what you’re up to! That said, the DF&F 52 subject for next week is:
Black Stonefly Nymph (artist’s choice of pattern)*
Remember the rules, too: 30 minutes maximum start to finish. That includes things like scanning time if you’re doing something digitally enhanced, but not set-up time for paper, paint, etc., or scanning time for a finished piece. Beyond that, there are no rules, so go for it!
Jeff and I also discussed the possibility of guest artists during the 2012 series. By that we mean artist friends who will do an “official” DF&F 52 image along with us for one (or more) week(s). We already have a few ideas, and will be piteously begging politely querying a few friends soon. We hope that there is enough interest to make this aspect a reality, and we’ll post any info about guests if/when we get one/some.
*If you’re feeling up to it, combine it with a brown trout.

You have no idea what you’ve started.

Will—Good to see you join us, and pleased to know that you decided to pick up that sketch pad after all. Keep the links coming as you produce your work.
Jeff and I both look forward to seeing what you, and the others who decide to follow along, will bring to this year’s DF&F art table.
