Completely Hypothetical....

[Dirka Skene]

I think I would like doing it if I got started. I've done all kinds of things like designing tattoos, doing henna, making jewelry, painting and now I'm trying my hand at sewing. I like things that are meticulous and tedious.

I saw a man last weekend at a local flea market burning designs into Western saddles. He didn't seem to be very good, aweful really. He drew mostly triangles, dots and wavy lines. His designs were really lacking any shadow of artistic ability. I figured since I have formal artistic schooling and an eye for intricacies, that I may be able to do it as well, with better designs.
