When a black cat crosses your path. Art by Lee White!
Ok, we admit it. When we find a penny, we pick it up. We always throw salt over our shoulder if we spill some. And we sure don’t make any plans on Friday the 13th!
We are a superstitious bunch, so the prompt for this month’s art contest is SUPERSTITION. We thought it would be fun to explore the ways we try to deal with the unknown 😬😅
Make sure you do enough research to get past cliché options like the ones listed above. If you do go with something more common, then it needs to have a new twist or be creative in some way. If it’s an obscure superstition, be sure to include what the superstition is!
OK let’s do this! Just be sure to avoid mirrors and ladders and black cats before you submit!
