    Self employed Artist/Designer/Photographer.
    -I have never been good at just doing one thing, so I keep myself busy with many. I mostly make my living selling my mixed media paintings and fine art photography, photographing weddings nationwide, designing websites, logos, branding, and advertising materials. I also volunteer as an art therapist, holding a once a week painting session for several developmentally disabled folks. I occasionally fit a few auto and motorcycle repairs into my schedule, and once in a great while I do some consulting in interior design. What can I say... I am an artist, a geek, and a gearhead. So in answer to your question. (A) (G) and (GH) ooooohhh! and can I take (P) too?! I have alway wanted to be a professional pirate!

    ...The " DUCK Tour " ? it's done with old WWI GMC DKW boat/truck thingies , very very cool .

    Now you know a bit of where I grew up although it was very different back in the 60's , grimy and much more old than now ~ they've torn down most of it it seems .

    yeah, i saw those duck tours. didn't get on one, though. crazy looking vehicles, and they drive em right down the middle of town!

    so much history there, it's a really neat city. and lots of awesome brews!

    too bad about tearing down the old stuff... there were a few times when i saw a mcdonalds or a cvs that looked out of place among the old neighborhood.

    Pardon me~

    Has anyone claimed "D"?

    I'll take that as "Dreamer".

    They've not only kept me alive, but have landed me my daughter, G, and the career I could have NEVER imagined!
    My dreams are mostly built on the "no you can't"(s)~ but also what God has led me to. My dream of my 52G coming to life will happen also. I can't say "thanks" enough for that one.;)

    Wow! I can't believe how many artists we have on this site. Nice to see that there are others out there. BTW why are there so many of us that are into old trucks and art/photography/design?...and bikes too?!? Please explain?! I almost never come in contact with folks that have so many similar interests, but I guess I have found where they hang out... on the internet. ;)

    yeah, i think it has to do with creativity. all of us enjoy finding new ways to solve problems and isn't that what art, photography, wrenching, etc. is all about?

    Old Trucks & Motos Etc.....

    Yup ;

    I love Motos too , I have a fleet (or junkpile , depends on your point of view I guess :rolleyes: )

    My favorite Moto is my Russian Ural , it's a loose copy of a 1939 BMW twin and I ride that rattly old bike EVERYWHERE .

    I like photography too although I'm no good at it .

    I agree , there's lots of artists here and that's a good thing IMO .

    Keep up the good work and keep those intros coming !

    I've got the same count!

    If we have the same license, we have to fill in B, I, J, K, L, O, Q, V, X and Y.

    I'm going to change mine to "O" for Optimizer. My group is called Pipeline Optimization.

    Zig can have "T" if he wants it, although he could also have "O" for owner of a GMC (Girlie Man's Chevy):eek::D;)

    17 down, 9 to go!

    Ken, Ken, Ken... G envy shows through like the sun punching a hole in the clouds.:eek:

    We all know it takes a real man (or woman) to embrace the G, but hey~ a Chevy is the next best thing to being there!;)

    While I'm at it, I could take the "B".


    ...Let your minds wander...

    I'll take it for "Bass fisherman". When I'm on the water, they don't stand a chance!:D (or could it be for "boaster"?):p

    Not yet~ but some day... I've been aware of that lake's reputation since I was a wee-little one. I gotta say, though~ God knows I love to fish and couldn't have stuck me in a better spot with all these old strip pits around here! When you can stick a 4 or 5 pounder on just about every trip, life is good! (I just wish I had the time to do more...)
