Lime Challenge Revealed
At the Prince William Art Society meeting on Monday, October 28, 2024 which takes place on the 4th Monday of the month at 7:30pm at the Tall Oaks Community Center in Woodbridge, we finally revealed our PWAS Lime Challenge artworks. The story is here on how the Lime Challenge began, and at the meeting, we showed our results.
PWAS Lime Challenge
Get a bunch of artists together and they see something 'out of place' and this is what they come up with. The task was to come up with an artwork for a lime in whichever way you see it - as is or how it should be.
Step 1. We need a subject for the challenge.

Step 2. We needed a way to vote for our favorite.
I used simple pictures of limes that I cut out and each lime was a vote for the members to place in front of/on their favorite piece. The piece with the most limes, wins. AND it was hard to pick a favorite as they were all to wonderful! Great job everyone!!
Step 3. Should we have something for the winner?
I gave out an inexpensive sketch book to the winner.
Step 4. Should we have something to go with the challenge as far as food/drink?
Think Lime and much comes to mind in food and in drink. I made Easy Lime Jello Sugar Cookies. I think folks enjoyed them, there was only 1 left.
As members came in, they placed their lime works on the table. And we were NOT disappointed - you guys all did great with your limes!
I kept thinking, now WHAT do we do with our Lime Challenge artwork? I didn't have an answer for that. Maybe someone does?
As you can see, voting on a favorite was NOT easy. I loved them all.
The PWAS Challenge can be anything that we want it to be, but this is how I played it. I think it turned out fun. I'm thinking we need to continue the challenge...
Who Wants to do the Next PWAS Challenge?
PWAS Challenge is something I would like the art group to continue and I've heard a few others say they enjoyed it as well and would like to see it continue. I played it the way I did but if someone wants to take over the next challenge with suggestions and do it differently - just stand up.
I'd be happy to work with the next PWAS Challenge if need be, and I was thinking SNOW in January....
What do you think?
