Using things found near you to create a big piece of art? Or using banana peels and creating a giant sculpture of a banana? Painting ourselves to match the surrounding area and blending in? Hanging paintings on every tree that one sees? Creating live advertisements where someone is "part" of the advertisement? A flashmob of people dressed as llamas and pretending to be llamas and occasionally just standing still?

deviantart will go 3D. there will be one deviantART store in every country, every state, every providence that there is a significant population of people who use deviantart, and you can go in and hang your art up on the wall, write comments underneath art that's already there, +watch someone by going into their own personal room in the place and watching them work, draw with devianart MURO which is a huge white wall with markers and paint available for everyone to use. when you report someone people dressed in devianart-themed police outfits remove the reported person and bring them to deviantart jail where they're tried and if convicted will be removed from the building. everyone brings live llamas to give to other users. deviantart in real life.

S upposedly, we will get a Premium Membership if we comment on this journal. All we have to do is come up with the most creative and inventive idea. Why in the world would someone want to hear something like this?
P erplexedly, while some of us are reading this journal and simply regurgitating what we've read, others come up with the most bizarre of ideas. But why are we doing this? Who wants to hear what a couple artists think?
A ctually, many people are interested in what people like us are thinking. Primitive twenty-first century thinkers like us should be revered for what we believe. After all, we salute the caveman who created the first wheel. That invention is still being used today! All because of an idea made thousands, maybe millions of years ago!
C ould someone from the future be looking back at us today, thinking, ‘wow, that artist’s idea was so interesting and unique, it is still being used today!’? It is very possible. However, I don’t think it is a future human. In fact, I don’t even think this they are even from this dimension! This ‘admin’ who created this little contest for us has to be working for someone higher up. It could be some overseer lord, commanding they do his bidding. Or maybe it’s just a schoolteacher telling their students to look into Earth’s future as a school project.
E very one of these suggestions leads to a single source; someone or something wants to know about us. And not just one, but many. As the journal reads, “We’ll pick the most creative and inventive answer each day.” It does not say “I will pick…” This is because there are more than one of these alien characters searching our minds.
L uckily, some us understand what this ‘Kate’ alien wants. I understand she wishes to do well and learn, so she is asking directly, the source of her future technology, by asking us. The truth is, the ideas that win the Premium Memberships are the ones that are spot-on what the future is like. She gives us a couple examples of what her world is like: DA meets in space, real llamas to ride, and free pie. The future sounds nice.
L onging to know why our ideas are so interesting, I had to find out who exactly we were dealing with. Obviously ‘Kate’ is a kind of interdimensional being, but what about the rest of the admin on this site?
A ll the admin, then, must be connected, in some way. Maybe they’re all classmates in a class in the future. Or maybe they’re just online friends, talking through different dimensions like we talk through text messages.
M aybe each of these admin is actually an extraterrestrial, or maybe one account represents many aliens all collaborating on one plane (This is why she speaks in third person). But whatever the case, ‘Kate’ is definitely not from this world.
A longside this theory is the idea that these aliens, futuristic or not, are kind beings. Sometimes we speak in third person just to seem kinder, “How can we help you today?” While this trend could be a common way of speaking in the future, we cannot tell exactly, and thus we must assume there are more than one, simply by looking at the facts given.
S imply put, ‘Kate’ is a kind space alien (I have a theory of what KIND of alien she is, and that answer is hidden in this message), asking about her past by going to the source: artists, and while she’s there, she finds out what other ideas were around during the creation of her own present – our future – and she will reward the ideas that actually come true in her future. But future can change. And who knows? We might all end up like ‘Kate,’ as interdimensional--.

You should paint the moon all the visible colours we can see. This will show the vastly different and opposing man-made and natural art forces working harmoniously to accomplish a shared achievement. People will look up at the night sky and not see their human differences as something to hide but as something to strengthen showing what makes them different and unique. The canvas signed “the human race“ would be visible for all and not hidden from criticism.

It will be an art contest sponsored by Time Voyage Unlimited, judged by Leonardo DaVinci, Edgar Degas, and Tanya Ooglethwain Byte (Arguably the most influential painter of the 30th century!) The prizes will include a week-long training seminar in the studio of Michelangelo Buonarroti, A short cruise on the brand-new luxury ship Titanic, and a new tablet and stylus from Quickle Digital Art Innovations, the company that engineered the first tablet that could change size on demand in 2940!

Im not going to make crazy idesa that not possible my answer would be to make a Devious Foundation and help people in need or do a foundation to help animals and make more badges like a Panda badges or Lion badges so that when a person buys a badge it would go the charity helping the animals. And for the lamas there would be a special badge that would give an actual lama to a country that needs them. Also badges that can give plants and tree to the environment.

Our DA accounts secretly mark us as secret participants in a top-secret government program. The secret commission in charge of the secret project is called LLAMA. What does it stand for? That's a strict secret and even in my extensive investigation I haven't been able to find out. Universally, it is simply referred to as LLAMA.
Of course, the very fact that we joined DA was often no accident. That sidebar ad that flashed enticingly in the corner of your screen? That appeared on your computer only, placed there by LLAMA. The friend who coerced you into joining was either an undercover LLAMA operative, was manipulated into telling you about it, or had their online account hacked by this nefarious organization.
Why did LLAMA create this website? It's only the first step in this scheme. Although I have never uncovered a clear mission statement, I do know what will happen on April 7. As soon as you glance at this "big reveal", you will be instantly hypnotized by an experimental graphic (which will probably cause permanent brain damage.) Then LLAMA will control hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people with the creative drive necessary for Project FELLA (again, the acronym is universally used and ambiguous in significance.)
And then shit's gonna go down, yo.

One lucky deviant will gain the ability to make flowers bloom and stars sparkle at their command. Midnight, April 7th, without prior knowledge, they will peek out their window and smile thus making the stars burst with light like fireworks. In awe they stay awake to watch such a sight. When dawn comes they will breath and flowers will sing to their existence, filling the world with outstanding color. Wars will end, poverty will come to a close, world hunger will be no more. One lucky deviant will be the center of international peace without even knowing.
