This November, Diane Antone Studio is taking your hand and confidently jumping into the Christmas season with you, with our Tiny Classic Christmas Daily Challenge!
We will spend 28 days painting tiny classic Christmas motifs together, perfect for all of your greetings card, gift tag, and decorative needs. Whether you already paint regularly or are yet to pick up a brush, this challenge is for you.

Join us each day all month long as we paint everything from holly to poinsettia, snowy cottages to nativity scenes. I’ll help you turn your wish to share lovingly-created, hand-made cards and gifts that your friends and family will love, into the confidence to actually DO it this year.
There will be a full length video tutorial every day for our YouTube members and Patrons – ALL tiers – and two lucky YouTube channel members or Patrons will win a fabulous prize at the end of the challenge.
Here is everything you need to know to participate:
- Download the Prompt Sheet: You can download the full printable prompt sheet right now from this post. Scroll down to the bottom and click to download (pdf or jpg) or you can download it from our website.
- Join any membership tier on Patreon or YouTube: If you want step-by-step guidance, we will be releasing daily video tutorials for every single prompt throughout the month! These will be available exclusively to Patrons in all paid tiers and all tiers of our YouTube Membership.
- Watch our Daily Tutorials: Each daily prompt’s video will be easy to find in a special Tiny Classic Christmas Playlist on YouTube and Collection on Patreon.
- Paint every Day: Use the day’s prompt to inspire a painting. You can paint a copy of my prompt, adapt it a bit, or paint something completely different. The challenge is to use the prompts to paint every day for 28 days.
- Share your Work (Optional): You can share your paintings in our YouTube Community, our Patreon Chats, and our Facebook Groups. If you’d like to share elsewhere we’d love that, and to help spread the word please remember to use the hashtags #dianeantonestudio and #tinyclassicchristmas.
- Enter the Competition: Shortly before the challenge ends on November 28th, we will post instructions on how to enter the challenge. Entries must be sent in by the end of the month.
