I still have rolls upon rolls of canvas, frames and frame making stuff, easels, palletes, hundreds of tubes of oils and acrylics, brushes that you just can't get anymore, palette knives, clay modeling tools, charcoals, stained glass & lead, silk, textile ink and film for silk screening, and so much more that my folks had when they died. Lots of stuff I'm not sure what it is. Jars with blue and red powders, dfferent oils, etc. (My dad made his own paint on one of his tangents..lol) I should do something with them but I'm no artist. They just sit in my storage room.

I kinda hate to prt with it but don't like the idea of it going to waste. Maybe I'll go down to artbreak on the river and find some starving artist to give that stuff to. Or trade them for a portrait that actually makes ME look good.

(Yeah I know, but it COULD happen!!!)

Donation isnt a bad idea at all really i would love to have all of that at my fingertips might end up making someon young artist very happy


Dude, I've donated everything I ever owned, or left it behind. Never even sold a car in my entire life...gave em away to people trying to get a start. So I will give that stuff away. Except maybe the stained glass stuff. I did that for a while when I was young and really enjoyed it.

mixed media - paint, plaster, wax, dirt, charcoal, conte, graphite, ink ... whatever I can get my hands on

i think i love you...haha j/k thats amazing though that you can be so artistically talented thats a great quality so much imagination do you have a fav i wonder?


A favourite? Hmmm I suppose it all starts with paint for me but I do have a bit of an obsession with plaster too ... I love the way it takes paint and cracks and chips... it makes the most wonderful texture.

Do you have a favourite?

not everyone would agree, again i only state opinions but art is an exspression simply put, i feel no matter how you go about bringing that expression out meaning no matter the medium art is art landscapes are very artistic arent they? i think so i mean i dont see why not it takes creaity imagination, tools and the end of the project is always beautiful sounds like art to me.

I love to do 'trash to treasure' projects too...like this antique 5 panel door that I turned into a headboard a few years ago.



Added a little trim molding to make a small shelf on top.


That is very nice. My partner and I build furnitire and just invested in a panel cutter to do those floating panels with. We've done some chests from walnut and mahagony that turned out nice.

I am impressed. The teddy bears freak me out a bit though. spock



rofl Afraid of a wittle teddy bear? My sister made the two on the left for me.

Wow, this has turned into quite an art gallery!

I work with little Swarovksi crystals. I bling things.

I would post pics of my work, but I don't know how to do that!

I love to write too. Erotica.
