🚀 Jumpstart your daily art habit

"I’m impressed by the growth in just 20 days!" – Sarah Jo B.

The #20for20 Art Challenge is designed to help you stop waiting for the perfect time, the perfect idea, or the perfect energy level and start building a real art habit instead.

For 20 days, you’ll commit to just 20 minutes of art a day.

That’s it.

Not a full afternoon.
Not a giant finished painting.
Not a total creative overhaul.

Just 20 focused minutes a day that help you get back to your work, build consistency, and prove to yourself that progress does not require perfection.

Registration opens March 9
Prep Week begins March 23
Daily Challenge begins April 1

Join the #20for20

You do not need more inspiration.

You need a structure that helps you show up.

Most artists do not struggle because they aren’t interested enough.

They struggle because life is full, energy is limited, and art keeps getting pushed until AFTER laundry, dishes, and errands.

The #20for20 Art Challenge is built for that reality.

It gives you a clear container, a manageable time commitment, and the accountability to keep going even when life is busy.

This challenge helps you:

make art a regular part of your life again
stop overthinking what to work on
build trust with yourself through consistency
learn how to work in smaller chunks of time
create momentum that lasts beyond the challenge

Save My Spot

What is the #20for20 Art Challenge?

The #20for20 Art Challenge is a guided community challenge inside the Art Habit Membership.

You’ll spend 20 minutes a day for 20 days working on your own art project.

This is not a follow-along class where everyone makes the same thing.

Instead, you’ll choose a project that makes sense for your skill level, interests, materials, and season of life. Then you’ll use the challenge to actually follow through.

Before the challenge begins, you’ll go through Prep Week, where I’ll help you get organized so you can start strong.

Then, on April 1, the daily challenge begins.

Here’s how it works

1. Registration opens March 9

You sign up and save your spot.

2. Prep Week begins March 23

Everything goes live March 23. You’ll get access to the community and the prep materials that will help you get ready before the Challenge begins.

During Prep Week, you’ll:

choose a project
plan your 20-minute art sessions
prep your materials
decide where you’ll share your work
do a test run before Day 1

3. Daily Challenge begins April 1

From April 1–20, you’ll show up for 20 minutes a day and work your plan.

You’ll also have the support of the community, shared accountability, and optional reference photos to help remove obstacles and make it as easy as possible to begin.

What you’ll get

When you join the #20for20 Art Challenge, you’ll receive:

A simple, structured challenge

A clear beginning, middle, and end so you’re not trying to invent your own accountability from scratch.

Prep Week guidance

Support to help you choose a realistic project and set up your challenge before Day 1.

Daily reference photos

Optional photo references for each day, so you don’t waste your precious art time hunting for the “perfect” image.

A private community space inside the Art Habit Membership

The #20for20 Art Challenge happens inside the Art Habit Membership. Which means you’ll get access to the Membership’s private community. A place to share your work, see other artists showing up, and feel less alone in the process.

Accountability and momentum

The challenge is designed to help you build follow-through, not just inspiration.

Join the April 20for20

This challenge is a great fit if you…

keep saying you want to paint or draw more consistently
have a hard time sticking with art on your own
tend to lose time deciding what to work on
need a realistic structure that works with a busy life
want to build an art habit without having a ton of time each day to commit to it

This challenge is probably not for you if…

you want a step-by-step class where everyone makes the same project
you are looking for a challenge that requires hours a day
you are not willing to work imperfectly

This challenge works best for artists who are ready to stop waiting and start small.

Kickstart your Art Habit

Why 20 minutes?

Because 20 minutes is enough to matter.

It’s long enough to mix paint, make decisions, solve problems, and stay connected to your work.

But it’s short enough that you can actually do it, even on a busy day.

The goal is not to prove how serious you are by making art hard.

The goal is to learn how to return to your work regularly enough that your art life stops depending on rare bursts of inspiration.

You do not need to be “ready”

You do not need the perfect project.
You do not need a beautifully organized studio.
You do not need the inspiring tutorial.
You do not need to feel confident.

You just need a willingness to begin where you are and keep showing up in small, steady ways.

That is what this challenge is here to help you practice.

What kinds of projects can you do?

You can use the #20for20 Art Challenge for many different kinds of projects, including:

a series of small paintings
daily drawing practice
color studies
value studies
landscape sketches
portrait studies
a focused materials exploration
one larger project broken into small daily steps

The important thing is not choosing the most ambitious project.

It’s choosing one you can actually sustain for 20 days.

Yes, I'm in for the 20for20

What makes this different from other art challenges?

The #20for20 Art Challenge is built around the part that most artists actually struggle with: showing up consistently in real life.

This challenge is not about cramming more into your schedule. It’s about learning how to work with the life you already have.

That’s why there’s a Prep Week.
That’s why the time commitment is clear.
That’s why the focus is consistency over perfection.
And that’s why so many artists come away from the challenge realizing they are capable of more than they thought.

FAQs

Do I need to be a good artist to join?

No. This challenge is for artists at many different levels. What matters most is your willingness to show up.

Do I have to paint?

No. You can paint or draw. The challenge is flexible enough to support different mediums and approaches.

Do I have to use the daily reference photos?

No. They’re optional. They’re there to make things easier, not more rigid.

What if I miss a day?

Then you keep going. The goal is not perfect attendance. The goal is building a stronger relationship with showing up.

Is this a class?

Not exactly. It’s a structured challenge with guidance, accountability, and support. You’ll choose your own project rather than follow one identical lesson each day.

Where does the challenge happen?

Inside the Art Habit Membership community.

When do I get access?

Registration opens March 9. Prep Week begins March 23, and the daily challenge begins April 1.

You’ll get access to all learning material, reference photos, and the community on March 23rd.
