Artists here ?

Well, I don't know about "artist," but I play bass guitar, used to play French horn and trumpet, and I'm dabbling with the piano now. I'm also an amateur author/poet and I draw (quite awfully) on rare occasions.

I do my best though! I'm a bit of a "jack-of-all-trades" really, "master of none" sort of the thing.

Im not sure Id call myself an artists but I am creative.

I sing, mostly opera and classical though I love irish and welsh folk music too. I could probably add playing piano to the list if I ever actually practiced! But I can "play". Ive also done theater since I was little.

I write, but my attempts at poetry have been cringe worthy

I paint with reasonable skill, I draw, Ive tried sculpting, and I love making fun cakes. Every now and then i get ideas in my head and I make things. Anything from clothing to Christmas ornaments, but I think that's more due to resourcefulness and just figuring it out as I go.

I'm also a pianist! I've been playing for eight years, since I was seven. Next February will make nine years. I actually go to a special high school that focuses on the arts for it. I play classical music almost exclusively; it's how I was trained, and I don't really have much of an ear for contemporary piano music. I also dabble in producing electronic dance music.

I totally forgot about putting poetry down. I write a lot of poetry, it is how I write my feelings down. How I give out what I truly feel to the world.

Ooh, I'd love to see some of your poems and paintings sometime Brenna!

Also, can you sing in Irish?? I LOVE Irish language folk music!! I sing loud and proud in Irish (well, I do that in any language, but especially in Irish, lol)

Hey, for those who say things like "I don't know if I'm an artist but..."
you definitely are !

I'm a painter (mainly landscapes, in acrylic and oil), and a lead guitar player. I've been told I'm a Blues style guitarist, but I like to play other things that aren't nearly bluesy, like Van Halen, Green Day, and Metallica. I generally get requests to play Jimi Hendrix, as I can do certain songs but I'm nowhere near as good as he was.

Ah, well I write, the haiku thread is chocked full of my poems, I used to play clarinet, tenor sax (jazz band), keyboard, drums, I also draw, paint, use chief architect to design houses/interiors, use autocad (I'm certified) to design a wide arrange of items from guns to rail buggies/motorcycles, and auto parts(custom stuff), I also dabble with solid works(another 3d modeling program), I dabble with photography...when you look through history most knights and samurai practiced some form of art to balance out the warrior aspect....the scottish warrior/poets, etc
