Great stuff, cookster and rabbit! I have always loved to draw, though I haven't done much of it in a while. I also am into sewing, crochet, and even a little bit of knitting. School takes far too much time away from being creative.

nope, neva... just spraypaint, sometimes pencil, and very very rarely do I paint.

Hey Cookster, I like the pipe one...although I don't get the inscription.
I'll buy it from you, though

It says this is not a pipe in French. It was originally done by Rene' Magritte.

I was more wondering not at what it says as much as what it means - is it just a "This statement is false" kind of thing?

It's not a pipe. It's a painting of a pipe!
Actually in this case we have a computer screen displaying a digital photo of a copy of a painting of a pipe. Magritte's thing is a comment on (insert long, onoxious babbling about the slippage between the signifier and the signified). Foucault wrote a book-length essay about it.
Nice digital photo of etc., though!

I love that painting by Magritte. There's always something about the idea behind it that I find refreshing.

Rabbit, you should try an airbrush sometime. You can do some seriously awesome stuff with them.

Cookster, did you draw a few of those drawings in a drawing class? I remember when I had to draw my shoe...
I need to get some of my drawings and paintings online. Although I want to draw some better stuff since most of it is drawn in a drawing class, and is not that great.

I drew this the other day, I really know nothing about art or drawing people, this is the first person I've ever drawn, so let me know what you think.
