Nude is a challenging theme, because it can overdone, done for the wrong reasons, etc. It should be noted that Implied Nude is an equal option here (and more friendly for social media). This could be anything – it doesn’t have to be full on! Nudity can be something subtle, tasteful, and artful. Let’s stretch ourselves to see what we can do here.

This may be way out of your comfort zone, but that’s why we’re showing up to these weekly challenges!

I’ll pull some of the art that I see this week to feature!
Use the hashtag #PromotingPassionChallenge so I can find you!

Here is some food for thought. Enjoy the challenge, and remember to push yourself creatively!

Incomplete.

Think about how much you do is spurred on by a feeling of being incomplete. For me, it is almost everything. I grow my business because I feel incomplete. This is a good thing. I want more, I reach for more, and eventually hope to achieve it. As an artist, feeling incomplete is a good thing. It means you aren’t complacent. It means you are reaching for something bigger.

The key is to see yourself as incomplete by your own standards. Don’t see it as a bad thing. Don’t see yourself as tragically flawed because you don’t have everything you’ve wished for yet. Think of yourself as a work in progress. We all are. It is what makes us human. It is how we know we’re alive.

Push yourself. Strive for more. Scare yourself. Acknowledge how many puzzle pieces are missing from your life. Issue yourself a challenge.
