I guess it's part (beverage-related) marketing... Posted by Barb Plews http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 oh yes, several. It's compulsory! Have now designated them "Schrödinger's Kitchen Implements" - suspect if I ever actually opened them that the universe might disappear in a puff of philosophy... Posted by Barb Plews http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 ...and do you have a box of who-knows-what that never seems to get unpacked, or even opened, no matter how many times you move?! Posted by Robert Lewis http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 hmmmm ...I don't wish to be controversial, but ...why do we make such a thing of St Patrick's day, but are almost too embarrassed to even acknowledge St George's??????

Posted by Barb Plews http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 Me too...I think it's made me much more organised with my materials! After the first few times moving I got all my arty stuff into some sort of sensible order. Still haven't found a lot of the cutlery though...:-) Posted by Barb Plews http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 Lol! I know what you mean Sarah...my mood has a big effect on what I'm drawing / painting too. Posted by Barb Plews http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 HI .

We never have the money for a babysitter. Posted by Liz Zook http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 I know exactly how you feel. I have drawn dismembered teddy bears, because of that very thing! Posted by Liz Zook http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 For me, it's more mental chamges than my physical surroundings. My art alternates between cute and fuzzy, and disturbing or bold. And if I have to finish a "cute" piece, and am not in a "cute" mood, I can be in big trouble! Might draw a dismembered teddy bear or something... Posted by Sarah Huska http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 Party at the Voodoo Pub?

Not only the geographical changes, moving from rural areas to urban then back again, but also moving from one workspace/studio to another. Posted by Robert Lewis http://www.voodoochilli.net/forum/ Tue, 16 Mar 2010 5:54:51 +0000 Modern toys all seem to be a bit too bright and boisterous to me! I'm sure my own favourites had much calmer colour schemes. Maybe your childhood favourites hold the key?
