I'm good at finding all the A**H*** men.
I don't want someone in my life I can live with. I want someone in my life I can't live without.
So you want to brag, eh???

Lisa,
My art comes from my many years of seclusion and pain as a young teenage boy. I spent countless hours all alone perfecting my artistic skills as the world passed me by. I worked late into the night, oblivious to the real joys in life. The deeper my pain the more I expressed myself in my art (especially the nudes). I would draw, then cry, and then try to draw again through my tears, I cleaned my paint brushes in the accumulated pool of tears that gathered in my empty cup of unrealized dreams. It was hard enough being a JW boy but when you add in a sensitive artistic soul it...it..(sniff, sniff) it...it's a pain only one of god's special creature could understand. I'm a lonely and private man with the spirit of a wandering minstrel and the expressive soul of a poet. I know life will never allow me to find true love and.......hold on......I need another tissue........ (wipe, sniff, wipe wipe, sniff sniff)..... and I just keep existing,.... that's all I can do.
I do not paint nudes for any sexual pleasure or stimulation but only to express my appreciation for the most beautiful creation by God, that being earthly woman in her simple and totally honest nakedness. Most people do not understand that expression of truth in its ultimate state of purity but only look at me as a perv with a paint brush. They are so wrong! Nudity is a gift from God, if it wasn't, he would have us all stop by The Gap for a nice denim outfit to be born into this world with. I am so misunderstood and so is my art.
Don't feel sorry for me, this is my place in life and I accept it. The only thing that eases even the tiniest bit of pain for me is to do my art. I will be looking at a few more expressions of real women via nudes of all of you JW.com women sent to me via email in a 680 x 460 pixel jpg format. My mail box is open. Remember, .....It's not for me, ....it's for the glory of God's handy work.
I gotta go now, my box of tissues is empty.
God I love you all. (sniff)

Lot of artistic people here.
I can draw pretty darn good. But I found a real nack for painting. I love to paint. I even paint the walls as murals. My personal getaway.
I can't seem to generate the same talent though when someone wants me to paint for them. I get painters block. Can't do it for money for some reason."I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory

Some happy,some sad"
This one most definitely Happy -

For the persons who don't seem to feel they can do things, a suggestion? Get a plant, help it grow. Yes, I firmly believe that there's a plant nearly anyone can grow. From Cactus to Orchid. It's a personal accomplishment - rather a "zen" kinda thing.
If you can, get a pet - a fish, whatever. Dogs & cats are wonderful. Dogs, imho, love you unconditionally - again and again. Just don't hurt them - and they'll be yours.
To accomplish prettiness and gaining love is no small wonder. If you don't have a "green thumb" - join a neighborhood help group. Many of them work in parks etc. You'll learn and make acquaintances. If you can't have any kind of pet - look to volunteer at the SPCA (humane society) - give some love & receive it too.
Btw, Daylilies are one of the most forgiving, beautiful plants you can find for your yard. Literally hundreds of colors & configurations. Tough little buggers too.
I firmly believe that nobody has nothing special they can do. They just haven't discovered it yet. Logical!

ps: Another way to gain self esteem - and be good at something? Take a class, it's not near as hard (so far) as I thought. Homework's a bummer, though.
