Re: ๐ŸŽจ .... ART. CLASS ..., ๐Ÿ–ผ

I love art & crafts - but I cannot do any (poor hand-eye coordination).

So I'm an appreciatior of art....

I really like the Impressionist painters, & some Surrealists like Salvador Dali.

@Adge
Hi I like most forms of Art, it was my top Subject at School.
I appreciate sketching very much, it's very relaxing for me. It stops me from over thinking. I need full concentration to sketch I have a serious problem atm with my left hand. I am finding that sketching is aggravating the deteriorating joint.
I would love to sketch daily, even if just for exercising my hand daily.
Looks like that idea is out now, pity. ๐Ÿ˜ž
Love & Hugs!

Sketching is great @Former-Member I've seen some wonderful sketches people have done, over the years.

It's good that you enjoy doing that - sad that it's become more difficult for you, & affects your joints.

In art class at school, I was good at photography - but not much else.

I was good at pottery in primary school, but have never done any since then (1970's).

@Adge
Pottery, & Ceramics are fun, relaxing, & make lovely gifts, or dรฉcor, in the home. I would like to go to a pottery group. It's good for distraction, & healthy brain function/health.
Love & Hugs!

Yes anything that helps maintain healthy brain function, is a good thing @Former-Member

Otherwise I will go dotty & lose it all, with old ageSmiley Tongue

Sadly, I'm already losing some of my plant identification knowledge, that took me decades to build-up (learn).

Simply by not working in horticulture anymore, for the past 6 & 1/2 years.

This Vicky lady seems really good @Faith-and-Hope

The videos must be speeded-up, as I'm sure she doesn't actually do it that fast (very fast).
