So I have this dream

Wed Oct 3, 2007, 6:07 PM
that one day an anthro artist will be so inspired by my description of myself as a bellydancing hippo, that they'll draw me as one. Or even just draw me one.

BUT

Like that's ever going to happen.

Meanwhile, my own traditional art skills are limping along in the background - I've been forced to begin reviving them lately, since picking up calligraphy and illumination for my Medieval group, but it's not proving to be all that easy. Lack of practice, motivation, and all that stuff.
Maybe one day I'll be good enough to try my own hand at it.

But can you imagine trying to explain to other adults* exactly WHY I'm attempting to improve my traditional skills again?


_______________________________
*nope, don't really mix in furry circles, some of the people in them freak me out a lil to be quite honest - the bellydancing hippo is a METAPHOR not my "spiritual self" or whatever**

**I get my rocks off by dressing up medieval, not in fur ;)
