I've used a bit of almost all the mediums - never sculpted, but may someday try it - but they are ALL messy, and I think it's why I really would just rather do pencil. Maybe if I were a serious artist with a studio set up and a place to keep everything (or keep it all out!) it would be different. :)

I need to go - you're such a good hostess, meetin' and greetin' every day that you can, and I hope you know how much we appreciate your South'un hospitality!

Thank you for the compliment Billie. It's always fun to see everyone each day and exchange pleasentries. There is such a wonderful bunch of people here on the "Finest", it's like home!

Studio? What's that? I've kept all my stuff under the bed or in the closet.

I love working with clay, the textures, everything from silken smooth to a raw roughness. I wanted to go to art school but Daddy discouraged it. He said that a real artist didn't need to go to school. I gradually gave up all hopes of doing anything. Every once in a while, I pick up the brushes or the pencils or whatever and make a stab at it but my heart isn't in it.
