Yeehawgust 2023: Wide Open Spaces

Howdy, folks, I hope you’ll saddle up and join us for Yeehawgust’s 5th year this August!

Yeehawgust features daily art prompts as well as alternative weekly prompts, for those of us who are a bit slower on the draw. Don’t draw at all? No problem! Submit any art at all, be it illustration, comics, writing, fanfiction, photography, embroidery, sculpture, music, or whatever other creative endeavors you might enjoy. All skill levels are welcome, and this can be a great opportunity to experiment with new styles and techniques. 

Whether you love canonically western media like Red Dead Redemption and Fallout: New Vegas, or you’re looking for a chance to make a cowboy AU and put your blorbos in a Stetson and spurs, this is the month for you!

Tag your work with #Yeehawgust and follow along here on the Yeehawgust blog. If you include any external links or directly tag another Tumblr user in your post (which may impact search visibility), make sure to also tag this blog or contact the mod directly so your work will get reblogged! 

Check out the “Reblogging Policy and Q&A” linked on the blog for more info about Yeehawgust. The event is also Yeehawgust on Twitter and YeehawgustPrompts over on Instagram, but Tumblr is our first home. 

And remember, y’all: be rootin’, tootin’, shootin’, and most importantly, be kind.

tumblr tuesday: yeehawgust!

Gee up! We’re already halfway through this year’s Yeehawgust, but there’s still time to take part. Did you know cowboys would move cattle roughly 15 miles in a day so as not to wear their charges out or make ’em too skinny? Did you know the all-important camp cook was sometimes referred to as the “biscuit shooter,” “belly cheater,” or “bean master?” Did you know cowboys would often sing to their sleepy cattle to soothe them at night?

Whether you’re the strong and silent type scanning the horizon or the joker of the group perpetually playing pranks and your harmonica by the fire, strap on your chaps, tilt your hats just so, and swing yourselves into your saddles. This is your Yeehawgust roundup.

Just a certain little eyebot in a great big Mojave. Trying some things out with a quick little painted sketch in Fresco.

a cowboy being secretly fond of you…

shares a book with you even though they can’t read

rides into town with you for an errand

bc they insist that they totally already have something to do there too!!

helps with your chores around camp (and sometimes beats you to it)

is extra protective during night outs at the saloon—leaning in to separate you from anyone too close or rowdy

gives you some of their stew rations because it’s your favourite today

lingers by the fire with you after everyone’s turned in

absentmindedly strums a sweet tune on their guitar while looking at you from afar

puts a small flower on your hat

packs an extra snack for you and your horse in your saddlebag before you head off
