Title: Creative Motivational Quotes Thread!

“Creative Motivational Quotes”

Hey ATAR Noters! ;D ;D

I have decided to create this thread called, “Creative Motivational Quotes” and it is a thread where we can create our own motivational quotes by using paints or other artistic mediums and post here for everyone to see! The reason I wanted to create this thread was that I was inspired by forum user, ‘Owlbird83’, as they created a fantastic homemade painting (I think watercolour??) on the “Time To Get Motivated!!!” thread and it included a quote on the sheet of paper.

By drawing/painting/creating a quote, not only are you relaxing from school work for a bit by creating fantastic quotational artworks, but at the same time, you will be motivating yourself to continue striving for your best with your studies! Also, you can post your art here! :) :)

I hope you all can benefit from this thread! ;)

I love this thread Coolmate!  ;D ;D

I was actually inspired by Periperi's post on the fortnightly art challenge thread!
It's really fun to do calligraphy! I really recommend it if you are looking for a new hobby!
I was using watercolour, but on the weekend after the AtarNotes lectures I stumbled upon an art shop in the city and bought a brush pen, and then I accidentally bought three more hehe.

(I'm not sure why I did the three dots)

Hopefully this quote inspires you to challenge yourself and do something that may scare you a little, but that you want to do!  :)  ;D

I'm looking forward to seeing other people's creative quotes!

Hey Owlbird83! ;D

I'm glad you like this thread! :) The calligraphy looks amazing, thanks for sharing this! ;D I also really like the blue edges and shading's around the black letters, it gives the effect that the letters are 3D, which is awesome :D

This definitely will inspire me to challenge myself! 8) 8)

Keep up the great calligraphy work, and I'm looking forward to seeing some more creative motivational quotes! ;D ;D

Hello Everyone! ;D

Here is another creative quote I painted today with oil paints! I hope everyone, especially all of the HSC and VCE students about to complete their final exams, become motivated to push themselves just that little bit extra! 8) 8)

I've been having a lot of fun making fun decorative pieces to add into my new planner! That includes many quotes written out with my brush pens.

Hi!
I spent about 1 or 2 hours last night practising calligraphy from quotes I found on pinterest.
Most of these I have copied the way they were set out, so they aren't very original in the way they are displayed.

This one is my favourite, but all the curly bits and everything are copied exactly from a photo I found on pinterest. I want to be able to do all the curly flourish things in the future by instinct.

Most of the quotes I have tried before now are sort of boring because I write everything the same way. It definitely looks more effective with the different sizes and font words. (Thanks Laura for that idea  ;D ,yours are cool!) (https://i.imgur.com/zgFl77n.jpg)

I really like fairy lights, and thought I'd give it some mood lighting.  ;D

Hey Owlbird, I only just saw these! They are fantastic, and I like the use of the different sizes + fonts. It gives an interesting effect.😀👍

Hi Owlbird,

This is a very inspirational quote, and is so true!

I also really like the addition of the mood lighting, it gives the effect that the quote is a shining piece of inspiration!😁👍
