I enjoyed your drawing. I never could understand how art is "rated". I do think the frog looks better than the prince.

It's sad, I will make sure not to do that with my child.

She discouraged me from taking art classes. So, it wasn't until I was pregnant with my first child that I tried my hand at displaying my artistic talents. I painted wall murals and from that mural, came a newspaper feature and before long, I had mural requests. Soon after, I began drawing and painting for gifts as well as to sell.<br /><br />I'm a writer too but doesn't meant that I can't do both and the same goes for you too.<br /><br />I loved your frog/prince.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04459265311205890622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6060669846425185896.post-66308697831635641122009-06-09T19:04:08.967-04:002009-06-09T19:04:08.967-04:00I love it..adorable you

Awesome.<br /><br />I was discouraged from being too into art from early on, so much so that getting the highest grade in finals at high school wasn't even a big deal to my mother. My father on the other hand was so proud he asked me for the trophy they gave me and he's kept it till now. <br /><br />She's labelled me the "bright one", the academic and to a point, I am. I adore school; I changed my major twice (from African and Asian Studies to French then to English Lit.) and I still don't know what I want. But never once did I dare think I could go study art. But drawing is a completely natural state for me. I don't know how to go in both directions.Brihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07081995597066974490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6060669846425185896.post-75076833219358349842009-06-09T14:43:53.588-04:002009-06-09T14:43:53.588-04:00I mess up my comment - but I think you got what I ...I mess up my comment - but I think you got what I said -- guess I should read my comments more carefully<br /><br />...you (instead of "I") don't have to have skills to enjoy the process of creating art, there are many, many ways like your writinglissahttp://thememoryofrain.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6060669846425185896.post-49812106261035458162009-06-09T14:41:44.262-04:002009-06-09T14:41:44.262-04:00it's cute, I think everyone should draw or cre...it's cute, I think everyone should draw or create art in any way they can, I don't have to have skills to enjoy the processlissahttp://thememoryofrain.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6060669846425185896.post-8915882946804170222009-06-09T14:05:39.664-04:002009-06-09T14:05:39.664-04:00I lvoe that you participted and joined us in this ...I lvoe that you participted and joined us in this expo.

I'm trying to get back to being creative...I'm only at the beginning and I have so much to learn.Lion-esshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14150985707591134279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6060669846425185896.post-63622515208811425312009-06-09T03:49:19.466-04:002009-06-09T03:49:19.466-04:00Yes, yes, and yes!!

Unfortunantly I got lost on my journey to being a writer (and an artist) because I had many girl cousins and it always seemed a competition about who got to be what. I don't like to appear to be copying anyone so I dropped both art and writing and gravitated towards accounting, because my other cousins hated math (and I did too, but I conquerd it, sort of). So I have a degree in accounting... but now I am writing and studying herbs. Go fig. Plus, I too would like to rekindle something of the artist that I could have been. I am slowly working on it (I find it's hard right now). <br /><br />Your drawing is very cute, you do have tallent, stick with it. (Oh yeah, I too have this feeling that my handwriting sucks... actually it is alright, with the right pen ;p)Strawberry Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03395571842364752995noreply@blogger.com
