I'm looking forward to seeing your art on a digital camera, Chuck. It seems the beautiful work mirrors your soul!!! Corny, but true!

Yes, whenever we can't think of a better alternative. Personally, I quite like the coloured wool. |

Chuck, your artwork is exquisite!
I have no imagination, and can only copy what someone else has allready drawn. (Got offered a job as a forger once cause I'm REALLY good at reproductions,.... I used to know a lot of "unsavory types"of people who would like to use that attention to detail for unlawful things. I did't accept the offers btw  )
I could only wish for your creativity, my favorite is the womans face and I think you should stop there personally. Then everyone can fill in the rest of the picture in their own mind and it can be a different picture for everyone. (did that make any sense? proably not)
I'm currently painting my entertainment center with "Tlingit" artwork.
When I was 12 "ball lightening" rolled up to me and my great-grandfather who is cherokee, told my mother "she has been granted vision by the
great Thunderbird." (If I was I wished he would have helped me see some of the bad situations I was getting myself into and stopped me)
Any how...getting ready to paint the Thunderbird and the Beaver maybe up the side of my bookcase. I will once again be making a faithful copy out of a book I bought called "How to carve your own totem pole" It has perfect line drawings.
Hi Butterflair, I also have an affinity for butterflies,my first tattoo was a butterfly done in Nuremburg Germany.
New computer, have yet to find a spell-checker so bear w/ my dyslexia please if I'v misspelled everything!

Did someone mention wool??
phew..... all 3 of my teenagers just walked out the front door of my house to spend a few days with their dad. Talk about a relief. I swear I was about ready to give away the lot of them!! Argue, argue, gripe, groan.......
Your artwork is brilliant and stunning, as usual, Chuck. I'll be waiting with Nannarob for you to get that digital camera/ (What did I tell you about 6 months ago??) I wondered why it's been so quiet on your side of our brain. You're in your element and creating beauty!
Nan, We'll have to get together and do something about this sanity issue! Don't want people getting the wrong idea, now do we?
Lau, WOOF!!
Hello, Butterflair!
Reika, I used to love exploring the totems on the northern coast of BC. You are lucky to be a part of that culture. It is truly amazing.

Hi Lemon!!! Heres another picture taken from the Tony Knowles Bike Trail (my fav) from Earthquake Park. (where the cliffs fell away and all the homes were lost in the Good Friday 1963 Earthquake)
I'm not Tlingit Blessed Mom, I wish. I'm Cherokee from my Great Grandfather (Who has a road named for him) and my Great Grandmother was Choctaw. She died when I was 6 but my Great-Grandfather was like 102 when he died. (With all the marbles still intact which gives me hope for no "Old-Timers", only thing wrong was his hearing was going.)

Hello ever'body!
Reika, I'm glad you decided not to become a forger, especially a sane one!  I have no doubt you could have though. I fully understand the legendary Aspie attention to detail (my own bane and blessing). I'll take your advice and stop where the lady's face picture is then. I wondered if people could just fill in with their own imaginations - and wouldn't that be better? I didn't know if people would appreciate the assist if I just finished the piece. I considered a separate picture that I would finish - but then, wouldn't that ruin differing ideas? Congrats on the new computer, and I definitely have to go see Alaska some day (afraid I might never leave).
I was surprised to learn that most people do not see pictures in their heads, or on blank paper, so now I don't know how much help people need. Ah, well. Most people do not have a blue bear roaming their minds either.  (From what I've heard, some have a great Thunderbird. Others have giant balls of yarn. Some have giant tree forests. Some have music notes, and others have minds packed with mathematic equations, geometric designs, and electronics. Weirdos. ).
(....Chuck runs bravely and insanely away....  ) |

Inside my head there is a debating team. If they would just stick to arguing the affirmative and the negative, it might not be so bad. But they insist on exploring every nuance and angle of every question. Gosh it's tiresome.  |

I dunno - I might manage to see blue bear, but I think I might need some Thunderbird first...
Most of the time, my head is filled with computers and spacecraft and superheroes and fantastic monsters roaming the countryside, which is why I play role-playing games. Name me one other medium (aside from fiction writing) where you can tell people about these wondrous creatures, without being locked up and/or medicated!
(A friend of mine almost did get locked up - he was a Security Policeman at an Air Force base with Minuteman missiles, when he started writing a Champions [superhero game] adventure in which the villains stole a warhead from the base. His roommate turned him in to the Office of Special Investigations, claiming the adventure was an actual plan. I understand they let him go after he showed them the Villains book, with descriptions of the characters mentioned - especially Foxbat, who is kind of like what Bruce Wayne might have been if he had been totally insane. No word on whether the roommate was charged with anything...)

Thats what happened to me Chuck, I came up for the first time in 1990 for a few weeks and ended up staying for 6 months, went back down to CA to finish college, (which I did't do) and then went back to Arkansas when my Mom moved back there and got cancer. All her famuily is from there (about 100 miles from Memphis.)
Made it back again (finally) on 18 Dec 99, and haven't set foot out of the state since.
I'm completely and totally enamoured of this wonderous, beautiful place that I'm lucky enough to call home.
I feel I can get a job anywhere...so it might as well be somewhere beautiful in the first place. I'm reminded every time I see a tourist how lucky I really am.

Well Chuck and Sleepy, I have Blue Bears, Ancient and modern Seas, and they are topped off with debating teams as well. I suppose that's generally why images and sounds from outside don't get stuck in my mind. I never worry that I'll be involuntarily hearing "Sugar, sugar, honey, honey" from inside my noggin. Too crowded already.
The comment about not realizing that most people DON'T have such things prancing around in their skulls is really a central point, don't you think?
My hard-wired THEORY OF MIND (which I am not supposed to possess) tells me to assume that others' inner experience is much like mine. My life experience, however, is a continuing discovery of how many ways there are in which this is completely untrue!
As already stated, it is GREAT to have a place where discussing such things does not lead to eyes rolling, suspicious looks and possibly involuntary incarceration!!!
Huzzzzzzzzah! Huzzzzzzzzzah! for WP and this thread in particular! |
