Through One's Eyes

@outlander Oh! I think that I'm starting to get it now! Duh duh duh! 🙂 Thank you! 🙂

Hi @PatchouliRose welcome to our art thread What kind of art are you into?

Thats ok @PatchouliRosei just explained it on another thread. The forums can be abit tricky sometimes. All part of the learning curve :face_with_rolling_eyes:

Thanks 😄

All kinds not to sound snobbish and I guess all kinds is vague but animals art and my family are my life and our home which is also a piece of art. 🙂 The photo I'm sharing is of a what I consider to be a beautiful plaque that I found at a local thrifting store. 🙂 I absolutely love it. 🙂 I reminds me of the union of my husband and I and it makes me happy to look at especially when the sun is shining on it. I just looked up and yep it made me smile. It's hanging on the wall right next to my living room chair.

You don't sound snobbish at all @PatchouliRose - being in to a variety of art shows your passion more than anything. There are people here who paint, draw, crochet, scultp, etc. - we all like different mediums and all try to dabble in things that we would not usually do at times - that is a way to extend our own repertoire - sometimes it works and sometimes it takes more time to master - it is the journey of discover that makes it worthwhile.

I love the plaque @PatchouliRose - no suprise though seeing it is of butterflies

Beautiful @Zoe7

@ShanghaiMetro ..... 👋

Hi @Zoe7 @Shaz51 ..... anyone else interested ....

Had my first real day at Art School today. It started with an introduction to the course,receiving our timetables, receiving our student-subsidised art materials 🎉 and being assigned lockers and storage to keep them in.

We had a tour of the studios to see where we will be working, and found the coffee shop ☕️💕

Next was a talk about workplace safety and being issued the guidelines.

After stopping for lunch 😋 we were introduced to our Art Studies teacher. They are teaching art by dividing it into subject topics rather than by a timeline of art history, and we are to develop projects from the materials presented.

The other people in the course seem nice. We chatted a little, it there wasn’t a lot of time for it between everything else we were doing. I managed to name-label everything in the art materials before putting it away. It was good to get that out of the way there, and not have to bring much home .....

I did, however, bring home the Visual diary they gave us ..... some fool provided me with chalk pastels and a visual diary ..... c’mon ..... that wasn’t going to see the day out without something in it ..... lol ..... 😂
