Hi everyone!
This month's challenge is somewhat seasonal. Eggs are the name of the game, so let's turn one. Or ten. This challenge is open to interpretation, so feel free to make a single egg, a set of eggs, and/or get as funky and creative as you desire. For a bit of inspiration, here are some some eggs laid by Betty Scarpino, Bill Ooms, Lowell Converse, and yours truly.
Good luck with the challenge. The most important thing is to have fun. Eggs are good practice pieces, and a surprisingly large number of people have not turned one. If this is you, please join the challenge this month. Here are the rules, as determined by AAW Forum legal counsel Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe:
