I'm really into painting and drawing, if anyone else is into art I'd love to see some of your work!

    I am :-) I am a graphic designer for my "real" job, and I also make art quilts, contemporary mixed media paintings, and love print making. Anything that gets my hands dirty. :-) Here are a few of mine -- show us yours! Always love creative companions!

    Had an art scholarship in school, couldn't convince myself of an art job so now I'm a nurse haha. Love to see successful artists!

    Thank you!!
    No I went to an art program when I was 16, but I decided it was too risky to go into art so I've just been painting ad drawing for fun recently

    Nice! I love looking at other peoples' art. I play. Mixed media pics on my profile. I got the Ukrainian Easter egg bug again. Maybe make a few traditional ones to replace some that got broken (and that I miss having) and then I'm gonna design a steampunk one or two.

    I used to draw and paint all the time but I'm so rusty I don't really think I'm any good anymore :( feel like I was better as a child than now!

    can so relate; went to art & design school for college but ended up doing business with my hubby instead, i miss it a lot- after a lifetime of art being my whole life, i feel a bit of a stranger O.o

    I love to create things as well but rarely have the time! All of the work here is lovely! I have always leaned toward sketching because its cheap, pencil and paper right? lol but in recent years I've also started to teach myself how to use acrylics and glass paint. I also enjoy playing with colored pencil.

    I'm a theatre major, but I feel like that's not the kind of art you're talking about lol. But in for the cool visual art :)

    I never saved anything I did. Much less remembered to take photos but I do have one or two somewhere. This was the only one I could find readily.
    It's years old. Haven't drawn or painted in a long time. One of those "things I need to start doing again".

    Don't let a long absence from your art stop you. If it was within you to create something it still is. It is like that person we lost in the mirror.. they are still there, you just have to find them.

    Yes absolutely Music Counts. The act of creation through your medium of expression.

    This is from a comedic comic I'm goofing around on, that's sort of a Behind the Music about Josey and the *****cats. Lots of drugs and horrible crap. :P

    That's so good! I wish I could draw simple clean lines like that in comics, I can only make something look good after a million layers
