After I worked on the TV and posted it online, I realized that a TV is not an appliance. Oh well, I made a lamp previously, which is an appliance.
Day 16 – Appliance (Sort of) – #AprilArtChallenge

Day 15 – Tombstone – #AprilArtChallenge
Instead of drawing a typical tombstone, I opted to draw a mausoleum with tombstones. It would also serve as the backdrop for the story of the queen.
Day 14 – Video Game – #AprilArtChallenge
Today’s challenge was a bit difficult. I knew I couldn’t create the onscreen video game, without creating the TV, which is meant to be part of another prompt. But it was also easy in that it would be a fast one, allowing me to add more details to the bedroom (formerly known as a living room).
Day 13 – Superstition – #AprilArtChallenge
I decided to make a little boy doing something bad that would cause a superstitious event to occur. He would be painting (or attempting to paint) on an art wall in order to look cool. However, as superstition has it, anyone who paints over those walls, will feel the wrath of the artist who made the original street art.
Day 12 – Street Art – #AprilArtChallenge
This prompt was such a fun one to work on. I love the way it came out, for the most part. However, there are a couple of changes that need to be made in order for it to look the way I want it to, but I’ll figure that out at a later time.
Day 11 – Dice – #AprilArtChallenge
When I was pairing up the different prompts to come up with 6 different light boxes, I had no idea what I would do for dice. I couldn’t picture adding a pair of dice to any of my scenes – it just didn’t make sense. Therefore, I decided to use the verb form of the word and incorporate it into the little queen’s world.
Day 10 – Lunch – #AprilArtChallenge
For this prompt, I decided early on that it would take part in the light box with the queen.
It was clear that in order for each daily challenge to be successful, I would have to have something separate to create for each day that represented the prompt of the day. Some were harder to come up with than others. This one was one of the easier ones.
Day 9 – Phobia – #AprilArtChallenge
The creation of this doll was a lot more complicated than I thought it would be. Mostly because I decided to create an animation that would show arachnophobia and that required changing the eyes, mouth, eyebrows and arms. (Scroll all the way down to watch the animation.)
Day 8 – 1980’s – #AprilArtChallenge
This challenge was a lot more time consuming than some of the others, but I expected that since it was one of the main sets from the 6 light boxes I will be creating during this month.
