Am curious how many people without a belief in god tend to lean to aspects of music/art and creativity in general
I'm a singer too but not professional..I do write lyrics though..I put more art out there as well as writing...compared to music..
I have a first in Fine and Applied art and was 'artist in residence' in my borough in the' year of the artist' I don't do so much these days but I rather think that the training involved sticks to everything within you. Without realising it, it juts gets internalised as part of the self and you don't even notice the art process. as someoen said 'L'art c'est moi!'
Illustrator, graphic designer, novelist and good at all three. Sounds like I should be a millionaire, don't it?
I'm not.
Lots of good work on display in your profile pics.
@Sgt_Spanky Thank you!
My art is my therapy. I think it’s really what kept me together all this years..

I LOVE the Dark Art imagery. There's a major character of an ancient gypsy woman in my book -- To Wish Upon a Star -- that is very close to what I saw in my mind's eye to the old hag in your portfolio so I was immediately drawn to those pics.
I only started writing songs when I was 58 years old, but have written over two dozen since then. They are almost all protest songs that sing while accompanying myself on ukulele.
Since elementary school I have done graphic arts and editorial cartoons. These days I mostly create memes and T-shirt designs.
Other creative outlets include designing web sites, programming, writing legal briefs, and cooking. Recently started dabbling in video editing and animation.
I dabble in a good bit of artistic stuff. I'm predominantly a musician but I draw from time to time as well.
I am a fiber and mixed media artist/instructor, I also play guitar and have been known to write a song here and there.
A third category of (none) to establish a ratio would have given you a much more interesting picture of the art/non art makeup of this group.
You’re absolutely right. That slipped my mind completely somehow and I should have thought of that, my apologies
I am creative but would not classify myself either of the two choices. I personally believe those who dabble in the arts do so out of fulfilment of a need to either create something or fill a void. Never thought about it having to do with or without a belief system, something to think about.
I play piano. Check you my YouTube www.youtube.com/user/gokulsthev
