    i only opened this thread to comment on the fact that every time it pops up i think it says "ashtray art." which actually could be an interesting subject itself.

    but i'm just shocked by what i'm seeing here. you are a truly talented artist, and i'm so glad i accidentally saw your work.

    An unaccepted entry to an Australian Wildlife art competition. However, it was quickly sold to a Yowie (Bigfoot) researcher.

    Yeah I like your stuff too.

    But now I'm curious what ashtray art might look like.

    I do not wish to find out.
    The longer I have been away from smoking the fowler the smell is.
    In retrospect, I often feel embarrassed to think that I smelt like an ashtray for so many years. Yet at the time I did not notice anything different.

    "Did you have a smoke?"
    "No, of course not!"

    Man, what a liar. They could smell it from twenty paces away.
    It's embarrassing to remember such things.

    Really quite impressive. I particularly love the clock collage.

    Fantastic

    Creative people are 25% more likely to carry the genes responsible for either Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, or Depression (i.e. mental illness) than people
    who generally describe themselves as non-creative.

    For a short time I was broke and lived in a small one room unit that had security bars on the windows.
    I started oil painting again and wanted to do a landscape, but could not get out of Sydney to do it. Instead I just painted a landscape from memory, and included my frustration.

    “This type of genomic variation certainly influences the risk of mental disorders, but so do many other types of genetic variation as well as environmental exposures. Thus, many types or forms of mental disorders may well be completely unrelated with creativity or artistic ability,” says Werge.
    New study finds proof that creativity and mental illness are genetically linked

    The only mental illness I have suffered were chemically induced, such as alcohol and drugs. :smile:
