just found this thread this morning - as I browse while having my coffee and trying not to slip in a cold meds induced state of unconsciousness...lol
i don't know that I would call myself an artist - but I do enjoy - all things paper related - pen paper - handmade quills and ink ...even have tried my hand at homemade paper -
I do some sculpture and would love to try my hand at the pottery thing again one of these days...
and yes - there is nothing quite like finding a handwritten note amongst the daily diluge of things that fills one's mailbox ... and I am bad about corresponding as I should - having had a fine gentleman friend from New Zealand for many years now - we write lengthy letters about twice a year - and it's nice to see that in my mailbox every now and again...our lives are so busy - and I'm all for "digital communication" it's great ...but nothing quite like reaching in the top drawer of the old desk and pulling out a clean white sheet of linen paper and some fine ink to write to your love - or to an old friend - or maybe even a new friend...
As always - just my two cents worth...
