Art speaks to everyone in some way because we all have a need to express ourselves.

Comment by lovefestbyrdie85 on March 26, 2013 at 5:26pm Art sings to souls! I have a friend in the community where I live who makes music and then passes out his music for free to people on the street...he makes music with the intent of giving it as a gift! How cool is that? He doesn't want to be famous or to sell his music or to be in the spotlight, he simply wants to bring beauty into the world and to touch souls through the channel of music. Just a thought.
Comment by Minnow on March 25, 2013 at 8:27am Hi,
I just joined this group (my background is graphic arts) and saw the drawing Smiling Sun posted more than a year ago. The quote is one I've been using as my email signature for years! Love it!
I have had a fascination with maps since childhood--using them, drawing them, dreaming with them. I recently lost two of my friends to cancer and was looking for a way to document my adventures with them. I found the book "Personal Geographies: Explorations in Mixed-Media Mapmaking" by Jill Berry. I think I've found a way to honor them and our lives together.

Comment by Yuan Jane on March 11, 2012 at 2:58pm Hello everyone,
I want to offer a book "Painting Light with Colored Pencil" as a gift to who likes realism with colored pencils. It's in almost new condition.
Comment by SmilingSun on January 31, 2012 at 3:48pm Wow Dawn! Thank you, I wouldn't have ever thought of that ... that's a cool idea. I'll work on it! Thank you!!
Comment by Dawn wwt on January 31, 2012 at 3:45pm nice sketch AND nice proverb, SmilingSun! i love how the doggie is snuggling on the man's arm, it reminds me of our dachshund Sam snuggling with my Hubby. i think it would make nice note cards that you could sell as a fund raiser, just a suggestion. Hugs, Dawn
