About MissA_sketches
I just started drawing again after years away from even trying.
It all started after substitute teaching for the local middle school art teacher. I forgot to take a book with me and got bored so..... I decided to try and draw the car the kids were moaning about and amazingly, it came out looking good enough to blow the kids away and have them trying to pilfer it and put their own names on it the rest of the day.
The kids kept saying, "yeah, but you've been drawing for years right?" "Nope, I haven't drawn at all in years", said I, "not since high school."
I was a shy, easily intimidated little thing and gave up drawing as other members in my family were so gifted that it just seemed to flow from their souls without effort. I put my pencils and pastels away in favor of guitar and thread arts, (embroidery, crochet), all still things I do with my hands huh?.
So, I'm now relearning to draw, all these years later, and enjoying the journey this time around, regardless of where it takes me.
So a big thanks to my local school system for the re-exposure to art class and letting me teach the "little buggers", (I mean loving angels of course), who affectionately call me....
Miss A.
P.S. Don't be a FUT! Do NOT copy or deface my art! I have a real intolerance for FU trolls and am NOT above having abusers banned. Been there, done that!
Do NOT expect me to add you to my friend's list if:
1) You copy someone's art and then try to call it yours.
2) You copy the art of others without adding any value of your own. (Unless I know you have the permission of the original artist.)
3) I find work in your gallery to be offensive in any way.
4) You spam my profile to get me to view your gallery.
The above is a list of my FU rules of what NOT to do to be a good FU neighbor. Respect them and you will have my respect. Should you choose to ignore them, don't be so surprised if you are ignored in return.
Those of you who have made nice comments or given cheers but still don't see your avatar on my friend's list, may need to review your own galleries for the reason or reasons if it applies.
If you have made no offense, and still don't see an add, I may have just gotten busy and haven't had the chance to catch up.
Keep those colors flowin' & Enjoy the day! ;)
*Update 3-16-2008:
Well, I bit the bullet and joined another draw site, so, if you don't see me here you I may be at...
http://2draw.net/users/MissA_sketches/
or, at:

FloatingGinkgo is where you can also see my pencil sketches. They aren't all there just yet as I still need to scan and resize several for uploading.

Thank you for allways commenting my drawing and cheering them. I appreciate it.
Just wanted you to know.
Great ID pic, by the way!
*hugs*
About me drawing in black and white, that kind of made me smile a bit too.
If you go to YouDraw.com to either gerry the art teacher or gerbear or many other galleries I participated in for 5 yrs, you will see around 2000 (literally) black and white drawing from me *big grin* It is why I went wild with color when i got here!! Did you know that christine here has over 12,000 drawings there? yup, no extra zero!!
Hope you are well, miss you!
And thank you for the cheers and commnet!!
Several messages to and from admin sorted the problem - separate registration is required. Same name and password.
It just didn't make sense to me that I could draw, could see the forums and galleries but not have permission to add to them. Maybe I'll write a little tutorial for SketchFu refugees . . .
