I have an artistic side i have to use regardless of how terrible it is.Someone made me feel so badly about my artistic side that I didn't explore it for along time. I now have finished several pocketbooks though they aren't wonderful, a few cartoons on myspace, but nothing on paper. What do you think about your artistic side?

That's a nice topic. Art is a really big and important part of my life: I've been drawing ever since I can remember and, in a way, it's just something that I /need/ to do, a really strong urge. So, I guess you could say I "lose my mind" indeed if I don't draw :P

Yes I do have an artistic side that if you do not use it I will lose my mind. I do different art forms. Although I mainly do digital art, photography, and poetry. I have to do one of those art forms at least for a couple of hours everyday or I lose my mind and go nuts.

My artistic side is my life and the reason for me to keep going. I love to draw, paint, and create and I think I do a good job at it too. I have been rejected before too but I will still keep going because art is an expression and there is not 'right' way to express. Keep on expressing, fellow artist.
