The Artist in You!

Clough · #1 Mar 27, 2008, 02:53 AM

At last I am posting the "surprise" that I had promised to a number of you almost three weeks ago!

This is a tribute to "The Artist in you!" thread as started by firmbeliever, who is a member of this site. Although that thread started out as being only about art in the visual sense on flat surfaces, it quickly evolved into including art concerning music, crafts, literary, furniture refinishing/restoration, woodcuts, photography, and that which concerned the theatrical arts. All of those types of art can overlap with and also compliment each other.

Because of the popularity of that thread and quality of various kinds of art that have been posted on it, I thought that it would be fitting to have some kind of index to it. Having something like that would be beneficial to the fine artists who have posted images on it who might want to cite references to what they have already done when helping other persons on other art type threads. I know that it has already happened where an artist who did post images on "The Artist in you!" thread was trying to tell someone where they had posted something on it, but couldn't remember where they had. Having this type of index should help. It would also be beneficial to have an index by subject of that thread. But, that would be something to be made on another thread.

This is still a work in progress, but I figured that I had better post something really soon before I leave for a few days for a three day gig and don't have any access to the Internet. It will still take some time to really complete it. I have already contacted all of those who have contributed images to that thread that this index has been made. Please let me know if what has been described about your art on a particular link could be worded better in some way and/or if a link doesn't work You could let me know in a reply on this thread or in a private message if you think something needs to be changed in some way.

If you would like to still comment on art that you might find on a particular link, please feel free to do so on this thread.

Thank you!

Clough

Thank you for working so hard on this "surprise" Clough. There have been numerous times when I have wanted to share some of the art work on this thread with a friend who was visiting in my home only to go through page after page and not be able to locate the ones I wanted to share. I know this has taken a great deal of your time to do and I appreciate it so much!

I sure miss the little community that had formed on this thread. I miss everyone!

Thanks again for taking your time to put this together!

WOW!
Clough, thank you for all that you have done to make this such a wonderful surprise.

This is indeed the best way to present the Artist thread.

Wow Clough awesome! You should prob link my art thread instead of the old artist in you one, has more drawings

and if we count poems, my Valentines Day poem could go too

I agree, this is awesome, Clough. I've only had a chance to look at a few of the artist's works and they were all wonderful. I look forward to seeing the rest.

It's done!

Can be changed to how you might like for it to be listed, though!

I just sent the following private message to a number of people on this site who might have an interest in what is going on here.

Concerning "The Artist in you!" - Indexed by Artist Thread

Dear AKaeTrue, BiWiccanAndProud, bushg, cal823, chek101, clafairey, CMM_Kaleido, Delow84, erlobenauer, firmbeliever, frangipanis, grammadidi, HistorianChick, jrebel7, kp2171, METERRE, sGt HarDKorE, startover22 and templelane,

This is also being sent to some art enthusiasts above, who may not have posted their works, but have nonetheless been enthused about the thread.

Some of you knew that I have been preparing a "surprise" as a tribute to "The Artist in you!" thread. It is now posted on the following link: http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/art/art...st-199144.html I just wanted you to be aware that the thread has been started.

However, it's not complete, nor perfect and will need some tweaking. It is meant to be a permanent index for that thread. The next index that might be coming concerning it would be a topical index.

If you had posted works and I have described your works and posted a link underneath the description, please, by all means correct me or let me know that you would like to have it described in some different way. I can change things... You could let me know on the thread or in a private message.

Also, please let me know if any links on the thread do not work

I will be gone for the next several days to play a gig in another city and most likely won't have any access to the Internet, just to let you know.

Thank you, kindly!

Clough

I do want to emphasize that I would appreciate it if you would correct me with what I have posted already. Also, firmbeliever and grammadidi, I would appreciate it if if you would let me know how you would like your works on your links described. Your descriptions would do much better justice to what you have posted than my descriptions would. It would be good to keep things in the same, general format though.

Thank you!
