So... what can you do to make at least a little of this happen? What's one small thing you can do toward this goal? <3

I was thinking of making a collage this weekend, or take some time to do an art project for work. I can't go *away* anywhere [and Christ the terrible smog is back, so there's no fresh air], but I think I'll make *something*. If it's not that poster/collage, i may just patch up clothes - it won't "help anyone" (except maybe the people who don't want to see me in my torn clothes. Rude - likeRudefrom30rock), but it's still Making Something.

You're one of those friends who'll push friends out of Wallowing in their Heads into the Doing in Real World (WITH LOVE) innit? :D :D

Are you artsy, Muse? Apart from the writing, obviously. And toenail painting!

Well, I feel like life is too short to want to do things. I think we should just try and do them, even in small ways. :)

I used to draw a lot when I was younger (and play instruments/sing), but I'm not good at those things. I can be passable at them at best; words are my natural artist language. Still, I am passionate about the consumption of visual art, and I would say that I express myself quite a bit through what people see, like the jewelry I choose to wear on any given day (particularly my earrings, which always tell a story) or how I decorate my house (the colors and fabrics as well as the pieces of art).

It's been an interesting rediscovery of my drawing abilities an adult to have a small child who is very artistic and wants me to draw/paint/make sculptures with him. I'm still not good at it, but I've rediscovered why I enjoyed making art.
