I do watercolors, pen and ink and pencil drawings. YOu can google me at 'artresa' and see some of my older stuff. I can't do much of it nowadays as I am in nursing school (gotta pay the bills *sigh*) and that sucks up 99% of my time. But I love painting, it's why I exist. Once I am done training for my day job, nursing, I will be so happy to get back to having time to paint on my days/nights off!

Hi everyone, ohhh I'm so happy to be here! I just joined this site this evening to post on the snooker and pool board (another of my hobbies)and I found this by accident!

I just love making things. I make cards and absolutely love knitting, my friends think I'm a bit of an oul wan but I find it so theraputic. I also do a bit of web design and graphic design.

Introductions so soon?

I'm just an artist/myth junkie trying to get by. I work primarily with stained glass, but I've dabbled into sketching and the like:

Hi.

I draw while holding a pencil with my mouth when I'm completely nackered. I've also hardly ever done a major work. I wish I was NOT a frustrated artist *sigh*

They're a amazing, do they taste as good as they look???

Oh I am an artist, finished a fine art degree, mainly interested in installation/sculpture, but want to get back into drawing

Damn those cakes made me hungry!

I'd say there are loads of people willing to do the face painting. You also advertise it about the town. Try the library, Jokers, Eugenes, and perhaps Supervalu.

I would do it but will be heading back late from Gorey that day and then work later on.

I could see if one lad i know is interested and get him to respond to your email here.

My interests include:

Jewellery- Been experimenting for about 6 months. Up to now I have mainly be working with seed beads and learning stitch techniques. Recently started working with wire but need to learn more about it.

Cross stitch-I had done a small amount in primary school but only got into it again in the last few months.

Photography - I don't get to do this as much as I would like mainly due to the crap weather. But when it's dry I'll quite happily get on a train and stop somewhere just because it looks visually interesting.

Over the years I've also done some scrapbooking, card making and sewing (curtains, small hammocks for toys or small items)

Hi!
I'm into paper crafts & card making.
I'm really into my art too, I'm doing a masters in art history. Really all us art historians are just jealous of people with talent, I can barely manage stick people. Ah well!
