|
| Posted 4 months ago 'Cause I can? |
|
| Posted 4 months ago b/c my brain doesn't shut up in the Idea Dept. |
|
|
| Posted 4 months ago So it's like a pressure valve for your brain Jeff? |
|
| Posted 4 months ago because the goblins will nibble my toes off if I don't and because I can't not Ink, Steel and PMS, that's what little girls are made of |
|
| Posted 4 months ago Because I love learning new things. Whenever I create I learn something new. It may be a new skill or something totally personal. It makes me more aware of my emotions, my strengths and weaknesses. |

| Posted 4 months ago SheilaTS said: yep... I gotta get 'em out and on a piece of paper. A couple of notes, a quick sketch, whatever it takes. And they all get tossed into this old wooden Coca Cola box for me to sort through when I need something to draw if something isn't currently catching my interest. If I don't draw, I get crabby, and when I get crabby, I'm not nice, and when I'm not nice... well, you get the idea. |
|
| Posted 4 months ago because if i stop for a while, it feels like i'm suffocating. |

|
| Posted 4 months ago Hmmmmm..... Starr, Jeff, John..... I see a common thread of passion peppered with obsession in doing your art. A very powerful ingredient in producing great art. |
|
| Posted 4 months ago i agree, i get crabby, frustrated - i go nuts. I need to let it out in some way or form. |

| Posted 4 months ago Bec it is so NATURAL for us Artists to create.: this is our way of life....and no one not even us can change it. |

| Posted 3 months ago Because I want to promote complex thought in our society, it seems to me that art has the power to make a difference. Also it just seems to want to come all i do is put it out there. |

| Posted 3 months ago *BECAUSE I HAVE TOO*; if i don't, i become just another miserable, depressed, irritable, short fused douchebag; the world has enough of those already ~ S@TyAM _ SHiVAM _ SUND@RAM ~ |
|
| Posted 2 months ago I identify myself as an artist. Its pretty ingrained, I don't feel good if I'm not working on art. Although I do go through some slumps, I try to do art every day. If you don't do art, if you don't create, you are not an artist. It looks like I have a lot in common with the other people in this thread. |

| Posted 26 days ago just a question: is it just me or does anyone else feel that once they have completed an image in their heads, when they sit/stand to create the image they are just repeating themselves? sort of like they have done the same image twice? |

You are not alone. Everything I do seems like Dejavu. It drives me crazy and makes me wonder if someone else has already done this and that I might be recreating the thing from photographic memory or something.
I create because I am an addict and I do not wish to kick the habit When I am in need of my high fixation I inject the juices to feel intoxication. ~~~Stephen Michael Arnold~~~ 2008 ~~I am the missing piece to the puzzle not yet brought into being.~~ Stephen Michael Arnold |
