Poll Are You Artistic?

[TSG]

I am a photographer and play 36 musical instruments.

 

[Red Feather]

Yes, I have a masters degree in Fine Art. I sing and write music, write, draw, make films, performance.

 

[Dethuan]

I mostly just draw.

I draw, write, I love to make gifts to give to people, I used to make mobiles out of sea shell, I have painted and I love to play with play dough. It makes sense that people with ptsd are artistic in one way or another. I love music but don't play any instruments.

 

[Red Feather]

Dethuan and Gizmo, I would like to see some of your artworks!

I draw, paint, and do photography! photography is my favorite though. I like to capture happy moments that are real rather than paint or draw them. When I capture them in a photo and print out the photo I always go back and look at how happy everybody is in my photo and it gives me that little spark of hope that I really need.

I love making a mess. I draw/paint and use pretty much anything that will make a mark on paper. It's my favourite thing to do when i'm in between a balanced and a bad day.

I used to write poetry but I really struggle with words now.

I'm quite crafty too but I tend to avoid it.

I've always drawn, and doodling is my favorite way to draw and just turn off. I also paint, write and was learning to play the cello, but have been neglecting it of late. I can sing now, after about 20 years of training my voice. I make feather arrangements and paint vases, make jewellery with crystals and fymo, I can sew and knit, but I don't really do either much anymore...infact, painting and doodling are the only artistic expressions I do regularly these days.

I love working with clay, but don't do it much anymore, and I also love photography and thought I lost my camera in Europe and my digital one doesn't work anymore, it's something I've wanted to get back into lately. I also love to dance...and would love to study drama.

Yes. I have been a musician since I was born. It was always my goal to write like Bob Dylan, play guitar like Jimi Hendrix, and sing a bit like Elvis. I can play like Hendrix, but my singing is different and imperfect. I'm not sure how I rate as a songwriter. I guess it's just for me that I play now. Since I never made it in the music industry.

I also used to draw a lot. But as I got older, I stopped drawing and focused on writing.

I enjoy quilting. I am so much a perfectionist though, I tend to avoid it because I get so upset when I make a mistake. I think I am going to get back to it and just enjoy the quilting and try not to be so worried about making the perfect quilt.

 

[mysterylike1]

Me too. I also suffer from perfectionism lol

I take photographs, used to make films, and play the piano and guitar. I also used to make clothes and crafty things. And write stories and poems.

I haven't done these things in a long time, have lost confidence in myself altogether, the muse has pissed off.
