Have you ever played music live?

Guit08 @Guit08 (597) • United States 12 Aug 10

Have you ever played an instrument or song in front of an audience? If you have, what did you perform? Do you perform regularly? I lead worship at my church (so I play different kinds of worship songs), but the time with the...

Lemonata I learned piano for 7 years in a music school so of course I had to preform (heck, it was a part of the grades, actually). I also took part quite a few competitions, but as I grew older and real school started to take its toll I couldn't manage that...

Lemonata I've learned playing piano in a music school for 7 years, so I guess I'm pretty "fluent" at it so I can enjoy playing whatever I please. I also teach myself guitar and even though I suck at it I love playing it :D. I also sometimes randomly tap on tables, pots...

cjsalas @cjsalas (109) • Philippines 15 Aug 10

I do love traveling anywhere. I also love to take pictures from the places where I have traveled. However, it is enough to love travel and take pictures? Those are only few idea when we plan to travel. There are many things we...

Why no great musicians today?

youless @youless (112123) • Guangzhou, China 17 Aug 10

I wonder why today there are not great musicians like Beethoven, Chopin, Liszt and so on. Although we can have some excellent musicians today, but why none of them can create a masterpiece like the past musicians? They can only...

Lemonata You definitely do not have to be a musician for that :). I'm not saying you HAVE to know any, just telling you they excist.

coffee maker calls it 2 cups...it's only 1

macdingolinger @macdingolinger (10386) • United States 13 Jul 10

Why is that? Every coffee maker I have ever seen marks the 2 cup mark like you're really going to get two cups out of it! It barely is one cup in reality. I know that they say it's a 6 ounce cup. Where did they get...

6 ounce cup

Lemonata It's not that there aren't great musicians, just the times have changed. In the past there weren't many genres like there are today, that's why the land of music is a lot bigger now. Sure you can compare - there are a lot of composers nowadays who create...

Lemonata I don't cry while watching movies, but I do cry when watching CARTOONS. Yes, cartoons. For some reason, they just make me very emotional. Back to movies, though. I'm sure there are some that have made me tear up, but I just don't remember :D.

Does GOD exists?

asxenon @asxenon (1440) • Malaysia 17 Aug 10

Do you believe in GOD? There are so many religions out there, which GOD is real? Anybody seen GOD before? Do you think all religions refer to the same GOD?

god

real

Lemonata Mainly I don't believe in religion. And God? I think it's just some people's way of believing in themselves without giving credit to themselves. That's why I don't believe in God - I know I can't blame anyone else for my troubles and I want to keep the...

I am a 38-year-old dummy with mascara-what am I doing wrong?

scorpiobabes @scorpiobabes (7225) • United States 9 Aug 10

I am so frustrated by those ads that you see on television for mascaras that promise thicker, fuller, lusher lashes! The lastest one is Falsies by Maybelline. My lashes are fairly long (for a woman), but I don't know how true...

Lemonata I use Falsies by Maybelline and it's one of the best ones I've used (Colossal was a bit better). Just pulling the brush out of the container and applying won't get you anywhere, though. As with all mascaras - I first use eyelash curler to curl my lash. Then I...

Do you care of brands when you buy art supplies?

Lemonata @Lemonata (33) • Estonia 16 Aug 10

To me it depends on what I need. Some supplies need to be good quality (like coloured pencils or brushes) but for the others I don't care much. What are your thoughts?

6 responses

Lemonata Well, thankfully cheap brushes can also be used for "dirty" jobs like brushing on glue or mixing paints :). I agree with the paints, too. Good paints have more pigment and that way they actually last longer.

Lemonata Yeah, I've noticed that too - cheaper brands tend to break easily. They also don't give out much pigment so they're kind of pointless to use anyway.

Lemonata I REALLY loved their first album. The second one was meh...okay. And then they broke up. I really miss them, but there's not much to do about that, sadly. I'll just keep listening to them.

What do you think about the new 30 seconds to mars album This is war?

tanchyka @tanchyka (213) • Slovenia 31 Jan 10

I've been a fan of this band for a long time and I couldn't wait for the new album. I like it, even though the style is different from the first and second album. As I listen to it more and more, I'm starting to like all of the...

Lemonata Even though my favourite songs are not from this album, I really like it. It's different, it's experimental and the songs have such different characters.

How do you feel about using Computers to draw?

babbatumm @babbatumm (3) 29 Jan 09

Hi everyone. I'm new here so still finding my way around. How do you feel about using tablets and computer software for drawing. For a while I really struggled with it but although I can now draw ok with a tablet, it doesn't quite...

Lemonata I do both digital and traditional art. They ARE different and they have to be - there's nothing wrong with that. Now, if you want to draw with a tablet like with a pencil, here's a tip I read - put drawing paper on your tablet and draw on that. Tablet will...
