Did this a while back. Pen and ink rhino. This is a framed version I gave as a gift to someone.


@CinnamonGirlE Thank you! I don't pretend to be a real artist, I just get great enjoyment from painting, sketching and messing about with art!

@Florence
I read recently that anyone that creates is an artist. I also like to paint, draw, write, but don't consider myself an artist. Maybe we are though! 😊

@CinnamonGirlE I agree with you. I think an artist is someone who creates. Anything else is about perception.

@CinnamonGirlE @Florence I have seen sheet rockers that are artists, a circular brick patio built by an artist, my dad using a micrometer to calculate shim thickness for shim / bucket valvetrains as an artist too.

@MidnightRider @Florence
Exactly. It could be argued that he was, gourmet cooks are, parents who shape their children are. It's all in how we perceive it.

@Notokay @gemswinc Thank you. Its one of the few things I've done which I actually quite like!

@Florence @gemswinc Well, if you decide to start your next career as an artist, do let us know. I'm always interested in supporting new artists--especially ones I like! 😍

@Notokay @gemswinc Hee, thank you! I think I might come to despise it if I had to depend on it! But thank you! xxxx

@Florence @gemswinc Ah, yes, that's the seamy underside of turning one's avocation into a vocation. On the other hand, if you are doing some for your own amusement and start running low on storage space, rest assured that you have friends happy to help you out! 😉

@Notokay @Florence OK, this is about art, not potatoes. Yes, excellent!

@Florence @gemswinc Yes, though I'm pretty sure Martha Stewart (among others) has taught how to use potatoes and paint in order to make one's own wrapping paper. 😂
