You can hone, but can't teach talent.
You either have it, or you don't. Sadly, I'm in the latter group when it comes to art or music

Nice thread and great artists. I do photographic and digital editing, something like creative photography and creative editing, the two years that I have decided to present myself to international competitions have not gone bad, I achieved more than 80 awards in two years, a contemporary art museum in Spain bought three of my artworks for your permanent collection.
Now my artworks are represented by three galleries, one in NY, another in San Francisco and another online (which is the one that sells the most). This month I have sold one for a collector in the USA and another for Holland.
I am Featured Artist permanent in Photigraphize NY and in Cercle Foundation for the Arts in France and member of International Black and White Photography Asociation

What name can we search to see your work?
I dabbled in pottery about 10 years ago. Still have the wheel and kiln, but no room in the garage...
you can find me by Gus Fine Art
also on my website you can see most of my work.
Awesome, at a glance, I was really thrilled with your surreal section.you can find me by Gus Fine Art

Nice work, I particularly like the mug.
It has a somewhat German look to it... I would like to have one like that for my black Venezuelan hot chocolate.
Lots of great stuff.
In the interest of getting more people to post their works, here are some of my paintings. I am not a professional painter, because, well, that would get confusing with my art jewelry. But, I sometimes get so many ideas that I just have to more quickly get the idea down on paper, canvas, or clay, before the ideas is gone. I mention this a lot, but I never set down and rest like a lazy person, so grabbing my oils and hitting the canvas is a lot better way of spending the midnight hours for me than just laying in bed and being useless. So...

I'm an artist - mostly in sketches
I also sold art as a dealer in antiquities some years ago
I'm a photographer and we have several talented of those too
Thank you! I want to get back into pottery, but need to wait for my son to finish school and get all his stuff out of the garage.
Some really great stuff here, and a lot finer than the shit most of the commercial galleries are pushing. Please keep adding to this thread.
As well as pyrography, I also dabble with charcoal and pastel. The last one is of my gran, done from a photo taken at my wedding in 2007.
I don’t know much about anything but in my opinion both these and your pyrography work are awesome.
Thanks for sharing them with us
Wow just wow. I really like your work.you can find me by Gus Fine Art

I especially liked the Streets of Vienna series - so cool.

Thanks, thats very kind.
@cosmicfolklore does silverwork and I was curious if anyone else might also dabble in that? Here's a thread on a recently acquired sterling 19th century vesta:
Victorian Silver Match Safe / Vesta Repousse :: Pipes Accessories
Scored this little dandy. Anyone else out there interested in this stuff?

We have quite a few jewelers on here. On Instagram there are even more pipesmoking metalsmiths/lapidaries/jewelers. I’d love to see their creative work on here as well.
