I want to learn

I want to learn so many things.  This is a start of a list.  It may be completed in 2008, may be not.  At least I always have goals.

1.  I want to continue to practice and improve my facepainting skills and begin working paid jobs this year. 

2.  I want to learn how to solder so I can make mini collage charms for necklaces or bracelets.

3.  I would like to learn some basic jewelry making skills so I can at least make the beautiful, dangling charm bracelets. 

4.  I want to learn to write calligraphy.

5.  I want to improve my colored pencil skills.  Shading and highlighting would be a great place to start.

Everybody can do art, you just have to find your medium.

Oh no...I don't do art at all. Clay, fibers, pencil, charcoal, paint, pastel, tried them all and what I make resembles images from the bowels of hell...which is not intentional. :P

You just have to keep practicing and then you get better. Try collage. Everyone can do collage even three year olds. That's why it's my artform of choice. lol

I used to feel the same way until I tried knitting. It's as much art as craft, especially if one designs their own work, and a good way to express one's creative outlet. There's usually something artistic a person can do, they just have to try different things until they find the one that works for them.
