Do you do any visual arts?Title: Re: People good at writing AND drawing Post by: alf wiedersehen on May 20, 2016, 12:57:21 PM Are songwriters/painters allowed? Because I can think of one. :) How about you Bubs? Do you do any visual arts?No, not unless you consider Microsoft paint (http://smileysmile.net/board/index.php/topic,17923.0.html) to be a visual art. I'm a big fan of the medium though, and I'd love to try my hand at painting someday. I've been thinking about taking a couple college classes at some point for drawing and painting. If we stretch the definition of "visual arts" a bit, I have made some videos in the past for various reasons. I currently have some ideas for a few, although I don't know if they'll ever be made.

Above: William Blake, below: Spike Milligan Today I saw a little worm Today I saw a little worm Wriggling on his belly. Perhaps he’d like to come inside And see what’s on the Telly.

(http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h162/iancockburn/misc/gormenghast_characters_zpsqlkieorg.jpg) James Thurber, an idiosyncratic and simple but hilarous art style, even more hilarious prose. (http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h162/iancockburn/misc/thurber-court_zpsvuvkbq66.jpg) Victor Hugo (http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h162/iancockburn/misc/victor_hugo_die_bruecke__aquar_zpsqezdlzsl.jpg) William Blake (http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h162/iancockburn/misc/William_Blake_006_zpsuytreuxe.jpg) How could I forget Tove Jansson (http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h162/iancockburn/misc/janson_zpsm41txhdt.png) Title: Re: People good at writing AND drawing Post by: JK on May 22, 2016, 06:50:48 AM Wow, ub. Interestingly, Hugo and Peake both spent time in the Channel Islands (Guernsey and Sark respectively).
