Shocked??.. its true, most of you know me only as some lonely, middle-aged, american white guy, looking for a wife, flirting with mylot girls, bragging about my raccoon avatar, a conservative type lost in northern california right?..... yeah well, theres alot more to me than meets the MyLot eye!!!!!
aHa!..I am a sensitive artist. I take figure drawing classes, I can draw portraits, and in my own passionate, artistic style too. I do figure drawing. I even do abstract paintings and sculpture since many years now. I even have a fine arts degree!!
all this is true my friends, I know you are probably amazed, maybe you are at a loss for words. No worries my fellow mylotians, I have the artist under control. I had to come out of my modest shell sooner or later and let you guys know about the other, more artistic half to cliffcliff. No better time than now.
Everything will be just fine.. now get back to your discussions ;)

seriously, my digital camera is not so great, my small collage/paintings dont show the nuances in a digi pic, but i will see what i can do.

Hmmm ... I seem to be a bit slow on the uptake as I only knew you were 'desperate' for a wife .. I seem to have missed all the other tidbits of information .. or maybe I joined MyLot after you had divulged those gems of personal life ..
Umm .. what's wrong with being an artist .. ?? That gives me hope that you are indeed a 'nice' man :o) There has always been a caring and sensitive streak running through your responses and discussions so why would I feel 'startled' that you are an artist ..
If you only knew the amount of times I wished that my school had given me more of an Arts education ... it's slow going but I am working my way (well haphazardly plodding) .. round all the great artists and art periods .. I am amazed by Rousseau's talent for 'hiding' animals in pictures, impressed by Whistlers skill with animal pictures, admired Piero della Francesca anntention to detail in his buildings .. I feel depressed by the 'heaviness' of the Dutch artists .. delighted by the delicacy of many Japanese artists ...
Ohhh .. I could go on and on .. theirs gazillions of artists and sculptors .. I'll never get round to seeing all of the works, much less understanding them ... but it's fun to try ..
Well done to you for feeling you know us all well enough to tell us of your heretofore hidden talents ..
