    @robinboyd due to the COVID pandemic that’s not something me or anyone (including at the post office) could answer accurately. Australia Post isn’t that consistent at the moment and it could still take a few weeks unless I use express. Of course it would *arrive* quicker than to the USA though, that’s a given! πŸ™‚

    Either way I will endeavour to complete the illustration as soon as I can, working together with the winner. It’s a really personal sort of gift, rather than a pre-made prize, so of course it will take time.

    I look forward to hearing all your entries!

    @deadbuggy I have emailed you from this email – [email protected]

    Just letting you know in case it may have gone into spam (doesn’t usually happen but you never know!)

    Hey guys, I’m so glad to hear you’re excited about this prize!

    Of course since I’m this month’s prize creator, I won’t be participating in August’s challenge, but that gives me time to learn other songs I’ve had my eye on!


    @lisadmh
    Haha, cute idea. I’m more specialised in drawing people and fashion but I could give it a go!


    @deadbuggy
    Beautiful photo, filled with nostalgia! I would love to illustrate that for you. I will send you an email with more detail and where I will get some more details for your work. Thank you so much for giving me this honour.

    I just want to let everyone know that thanks to our fantastic worldwide pandemic (sarcasm), the prize illustration as well as any commissions will take most likely between 3 and 6 weeks to arrive from Australia to the USA. It would normally be quicker, but these are the times we are dealing with right now. So I hope you understand and thank you for your patience.

    I look forward to illustrating for this month’s winner as well as creating commissions for you guys.

    Wow everyone is so impressive!

    So now it’s about 3 months altogether, after the People are Strange challenge. Congrats to Lisa who won that one! Here is my 12TH STREET RAG. Loved it. Thanks Chris.

    I loved the sound of this one on my wee lil soprano.

    I look forward to illustrating for the winner of the challenge after this πŸ˜‰

    @Andrew thank you so much for your constructive feedback. Haha! I can definitely hear the overly accented strum. I look forward to learning how to do the ‘rasgueado’ strum and really elevate my performance. As for the slide, I kinda did that intentionally as I liked the slide sound, however, maybe it’s a little idiosyncratic for this song?


    @surfnrz
    thank you so much!!! Yes, I’ve had a lot of time to practise and have been watching sooo many Youtube tutorials, and spending time doing the lil courses in Rock Class and just developing a love for the ukulele. Nice to meet you πŸ™‚

    Hi folks,

    My name is Nicole, but you can call me Nicky or Candy.
    I’ve been playing ukulele for about 2ish months in total now.
    I learned one song and one chord progression on ukulele quite a few years ago and then left it, but thanks to lockdown I discovered a new passion and have focused a lot of attention onto learning ukulele! I love this arrangement of ‘People are Strange’ by Andrew and AJ. I know my performance is not perfect but it’s my progress so far. πŸ™‚

    Here is my entry to the Rock Class 101 June Challenge! On my High-G ukulele
