Ẃeβ࿚Ẃỉtcĥ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I've never counted myself as an artist. In school when there was drawing to be done for homework, more often than not my Dad did the drawing for me. Yep, forty-one years later I can admit it, though I'm not proud to do so. Anyway ... ten years ago, as art therapy for my eyesight, I attended a 2-day art workshop. After that, I have started painting 'circles'. Now I find that it soothes me to take up paintbrush or crayon, and people admire the circles I paint. I've tried to make this art 'productive'. I've covered store-bought notebooks (physical paper books you write in) and tried to sell them. But friends stated what I should price them at, including the manager of the store - and then they didn't sell well at that price. Less than that would undermine their worth, friends said, and at that price people thought twice before buying ... But I continue to make my circles. They're the best de-stress I have, alongside writing and collecting post marks. I keep daydreaming of using my art to good effect one day, and in the meantime, I love the process! |
