CALLING ALL ARTISTS- Let's make an art gallery!

Good luck and enjoy the retreat Smaarty. (I was away for a craft weekend last weekend and oh it is HARD to have to come back to all the other responsibilities of day-to-day life !!)

Moonflower I hope you are feeling better and back to creating soon. X

GardenNerd inspired me to try painting again. I haven't touched a canvas in about 10 years. I'm planning on donating this to an auction that saves Indian elephants from horrid lives inside temple prisons. It's 30"x20" Acryllic.

Took my first trip to Yellowstone and even though the weather was mostly terrible for photography, this coyote did strike a pose for me

Thank you

Oh that is glorious Quinn - makes me think of Indian Art meets Van Gogh's Starry Night.

Glad you found it Feeling Feline. I need to find that safety pin art for you

Started this landscape quilt (I also raise tarantulas) but have to wait for cataract surgery to finish it. Boo.

Beautiful!

I am so thrilled to have found this thread and so many talented artists. BluePearl - Can't believe the detail in your quilt Amazing! Hope you can finish.

Wow! Love the quilt bluepearl! And the painting Jenee! And the button art is amazing.

I did NOT make this bracelet, but wanted to show off my birthday present. It is a medical alert bracelet. With 6 lines if info on the back. I got another tag so I can bead one that will be my design, but these are simply gorgeous!

This one is from Laurens Hope. They have so many that do not look like med tags! Ok, advertisement over. BTW, I neither work for, represent, or own any of Laurens Hope. I just think they are so pretty and unusual.

I love that this thread exists! Art has been such an important source of self-care through this process. Love seeing everyone's art. So Awesome!

I mostly draw, but also do some needlepoint and other crafty things. Art is just a hobby for me, and it helps so much to reduce my stress.

I did my profile picture

and mostly just do detailed doodles like these:

One of my Fav lately was a (slightly NSFW) Think before you pink drawing

Here is a link to my gallery. if you are interested.

As someone learning to draw, I'm impressed with that flower. Not easy, as I'm learning.

While on a CASTING FOR RECOVERY Retreat a few months ago, while standing in the Connetquot River looking to catch my first fish, I was inspired by the view. I took a photo and it made me realize why wasn't I doing more of what I love to do as in taking photos and painting! After the weekend, I found a local painting class and voila! I present my painting of "The Connetquot River".

To photograph is therapy for my soul. I wasn't allowed to submit a picture otherwise I would have done so.
