    Graphic designer here. So I guess that makes me sort of like an artist who insists on getting paid before creating something. :wink:

    I 'dabble' in art though. Here's as close as I can get...

    cool stuff everyone! My hubs is a professional photographer ~ that is how we met. I was finishing my degree in photography & went to work for him. I married the boss 20 years ago this St Patty's Day! :drinker:

    I do, but its mostly artwork to print on charms and bookmarks and the likes. :) And I'm more fond of making jewelry.

    I am on Etsy and DA as thedapperdingo. :) I'm working on my website so I can showcase my artwork and crafts there soon!

    Photographer. Sometimes the taking the photo part can be a good bit of exercise, but the editing is hours of sitting at a desk. I cannot move until I've edited the majority of the pics from a shoot. I get lost. My fav part!!!

    I make wall art out of duct tape as a hobby. I have a lot of pieces but here are a few I figured I'd share.

    Art has always been one of my favourite hobbies. I used to want to turn it into a career, but ended up stumbling into a different creative career instead in between art jobs, so...now I just do it for fun.

    A lot of that stuff is really old...I need to post some new stuff.

    @ WOW, This is beautiful work! you need to post more!

    @cgwatson: Those are so cool~

    I'm an Architect so I spend most of my day drawing. Pretty awesome stuff you guys have going on! :)

    This is more of a hobby really. Nothing fancy, just something I enjoy doing for kicks.

    WOW!!! I am super impressed, also! Super unique! I hope you are getting the professional attention you deserve.... seriously, wow!

    I used to do graphic designing. Then I started writing and illustrating children's books when I did the stay at home mom thing. I haven't officially approached a publisher yet. I plan to get back to it when I'm not in school. It's taking a lot of time and energy to handle being a full time student and a single parent. But I'm NOT giving up on the idea of being an illustrator one day! :)

    Professional animator here, I've worked on stuff for Nick Jr, HBO, MTV, and random other things. I left my job though to go to grad school and have been doing 3D Animation. My doodle blog is here though, but they're just quick and silly doodles: http://jentobox.tumblr.com

    I love to draw! They aren't very good but here are some of them. I'm currently drawing my husbands ugly car. He wants a stock drawing, one of how it is now, and one of when he's done fixing it up. He's so weird!

    This was for my baby because he loves Elmo.

    These 2 were for my friends granddaughter.

    People may consider me a 'crafter' but I prefer to think of myself as an artist. I am a card maker and scrapbooker, but I'm loving creating mixed media collage pieces and see a lot more of that in my future. I love getting my hands inky & all covered with colour :)

    I doodle when I get bored. my entire work computer screen is surrounded by faces that I have drawn over the years. Haven't really picked up a pencil and lain down any serious art in maybe six or seven years, tho. May have to, after seeing some of this inspiration. You guys are awesome!! :happy:
