there's pretty much a tiktok challenge for literally anything you can want from the more
popular ones like dancing all the way down to more obscure ones that i'm not honestly
quite sure what they are but they're there so naturally as an artist on the internet i
decided to check out tiktok's art challenges and boy there's a lot. I found some of the
most interesting art challenges that i could find and today i'm going to try them out and
see what art challenges tiktok has to offer this should be fun and not hopefully stressful
so for this very first art challenge i just gotta say that i am obsessed with
this tiktoker's page i recently just found them this is @stainedhands and all of their art videos
they slap! they have a bunch of different art challenges on their page but this one
in particular stood out to me so here it is had a weird idea for a painting water-based paints
leave outside overnight draw what you see through all the wrinkles dirt and paint
so if you didn't catch that basically you get some watercolor put it on a paper put it outside smear
a bunch of dirt all over it leave it outside overnight and then the next day whatever stains
are on the page you try to draw whatever you can see out of those shapes i've seen variations of
this one but i've never seen one this.. like out there and i like it i like this person's style! so
let's do it now. for this art challenge literally all you need is watercolor and watercolor paper
don't think about it just do it just put random blobs literally wherever you want
here's my finished blobs i feel like there's a lot of potential inside of these
so here's my thing of dirt
so i guess i'm just gonna go ahead and put the water hose on top of it i don't know how
else to like anchor it down because there's no rocks around me i'll have to see if the dang
rabbits don't get it so i'll see you tomorrow all right let's see how this thing worked out
that dirt really really really stuck to the page uh okay i guess we'll just try to work some magic
okay so here's the final result of my blob art i thought i was gonna flop on this one because
i have such a traditional style but no i feel like everything came out much cooler than i expected!
this challenge would be really good if you're like myself and you just have to have everything
perfect at all times i feel like this challenge would be perfect for you because it makes you step
out of your comfort zone and it forces you to make things that are weird and crazy. for
somebody who struggles a lot with perfectionism i'm going to give this exercise a solid 10 out
of 10. all right so for this next art hack oh wait i'm not doing art hacks for this next art
challenge this is from the tiktoker @almantis.art and this video has literally 10 million views
but in my opinion it's well deserved because the artists in this video
they absolutely killed it they did such a good job trying to draw with fingers for the first time
the artwork just absolutely beautiful just gorgeous but for me i can't guarantee that
i'll be any good at it so here goes nothing i'm not gonna lie i'm kind of scared because
it's been a very very long time since i've done any kind of finger painting
except maybe when i was like a toddler but other than that i've literally never done it
by the way i am using water i don't know if that's cheating or not
but i'm going to do it anyway so the first thing i want to do is like create like a little base
of water and.. just oh god it's.. it's already dripping and just start carving out my outline
oh god i'm already messing up it's only been like 0.2 seconds and i'm already messing up
sorry that i'm like flipping you guys off right now it's just that this is like the best finger
for me to to like make artwork with you know and so it's nothing personal
so it's been about an hour and a half since i completed the drawing my hands are still very much
covered in paint but as far as like the actual artwork itself goes i'm actually very happy with
it i think it came out pretty decent for what limited tools i had my thoughts for this art
challenge is that it was surprisingly very very difficult between my fingernail cutting the page
between my fingers just blobbing water everywhere where water's not supposed to be
i think this art challenge would be really good if you want to learn how
to improve your shadows and control but i mean other than that this art
challenge was so incredibly difficult so if i had to rate this challenge on
how much it helped me and how difficult it was i would say it's like a 7 out of 10.
this next art challenge is one of my favorites so far. again this is
from the same artist that i mentioned earlier @stainedhands i told you their stuff was good.
so good i'm featuring them two different times just thought of a new art challenge
start one side with your style
and make the other side realistic
boom so if you didn't catch that on one side of the paper
you draw in whatever style you have and on the other side of the page you draw
realistically and for me that's kind of a problem because as you guys know
realistic drawing is kind of my thing so for this art challenge i'm gonna have to tweak it
a little bit and basically do the opposite my side realistic and the other side not realistic
the results of this exercise kind of scare me a little bit but i mean that's the point right
to physically force yourself to try new things this exercise completely flips you upside down
and forces your brain to do the exact opposite of what you would normally do if you do any
kind of illustration or cartoon or realism try this one now this is such an interesting
art exercise that's gonna blow your mind i would rate this exercise a solid 8 out of 10.
for this next art challenge i've seen this one quite a few times on tiktok and each
time the results are just absolutely the coolest thing ever i'm sure a lot of you
guys have seen a variation of this somewhere on the internet this specific video comes from
@thisartperson painting with only blue light
what color
black hair fingers crossed
final result
just the coolest thing like the final result the whole concept i love this one it's just so cool
and it just so happens that i have an led light that can change any color. in the original video
the artist covers up all of her paint names with tape so she can't see what colors they are but
for me all my paints are in different sizes and they're different brands so it doesn't matter what
color light is shining on them regardless i'm going to be able to tell the difference because
the packaging is different so to remedy that i have my wonderful cameraman he's currently
making me a palette and once all the lights are blue he's going to bring it in here and
i'm not going to be able to tell because it's all just going to be blobs of paint
oh no oh my god
it exploded all over me!!
awe! he got white paint everywhere poor guy i'm so sorry that
sucks oh my god i am so sorry that sucks okay go ahead my eyes are closed go ahead and come on in
uh just place it anywhere and i'll set it up all. thank you!
*music*
all right so it's about 30 minutes since i finished the painting i'm
really worried it's gonna be absolutely hideous
you know like i spent an hour just making the ugliest thing in the world well let's see
bro oh my god this came out so good i literally thought it was going to be the worst thing i've
ever created but this looks straight fire i think this art challenge would be best for
people who have art block because you're doing this art challenge not for the final result you
have no idea what the final result's going to look like this challenge is perfect if you just
want to make some artwork and have a good time it's a good way to let go of all that stress and
have a zen moment. this one was so fun i'm giving it a solid one thousand out of ten!
well there you guys go that was tiktok's most interesting art challenges i hope you guys liked
and enjoyed as always and if you're an artist i really do recommend you try out some of these
art challenges on your own because they really like expanded my mind and while you're working on
those art challenges i'll leave my entire tiktok playlist down below so you can check those out
