What kind of art do you like to do? Do you do it for profit or purely for pleasure? Do you exhibit your art?

I do charcoal painting and I do it for hobby. Some of my friends will request me and give gifts. No exhibit, just hobby. I paint saints' pictures and give away to some friends.

I have never tried charcoal painting but I would not mind learning. Is it difficult to learn? My art is abstract/geometric art and do mine for just a hobby now.

but you don't consider yourself an artist? if you do art, even as a hobby, and have done a lot of it, i would probably consider you an artist. art as a hobby is still art.

Sounds like you are an artist to me. What kinds of things do you put on glass? Pictures? Writing?

I do charcoal painting, but only for leisure and not by profession.

I agree that it is best to draw for fun and not try and make money off of it. Art is supposed to be fun and if you fail trying to sell it than it can take the fun away. I will continue to do mine for just fun only.

Yeah, I draw for fun, sometimes it is better that way. I know a lot of artists who can't draw for fun anymore, they just feel that it is work now...its sad...

My god, are you talented or are you talented. Not many can manage any one or two of the number of things you do, or used to do. I am a painting and poetry enthusiast myself, so if you'd like to share some of your work, I love to see.

I paint, mainly Abstract and Surrealist style but I do dabble in some impressionism. I try to do it for profit and well as pleasure but somehow the profit side eludes me. yes, I exhibit my art. http://www.boundlessgallery.com/artist/5823.html

Ken's Artwork - Here is a picture of my artwork done on a posterboard.  It is abstract or geometric art and I used markers for this and lots of lines and colors.  I do other objects as well as posterboard.
I enjoy doing abstract/geometric art as you can see from my picture. I do it for pleasure mostly though I did try and make a profit of my artwork but was only able to sell it to my closest friends for their childs room. I use different mediums for my project.

I have a hobby of making intricate beaded jewelry. I consider it art because it takes a lot of creativity, learning and patience. So far I’ve done it just for personal pleasure, but I have considered doing it for sale. The only problem is I cannot produce a lot at a time because it takes a lot of time and concentration to make. Also, I hate to sell them because I make them to suit my tastes, and when I’m done I usually want to keep it to use. But I need the money, so I have to do what I have to do.

Well, at least you are able to make money off it, that's great an upside, huh?. Thanks for the reply.
