    So good to see so many others who are interested in creativity!

    Years ago, I trained in dance, but chose to finish and went into childcare. I still absolutely adore dance, but unfortunately with my health this wouldn't be an option anyway.

    I particularly enjoy photography and designing. I have an etsy shop for digital prints and have recently created designed a Christmas card. I'll post a couple of things 😊

    @scotslad

    Absolutely! When I was growing up, we didn't get the Internet until I was at least 13 or 14, so I definitely think that helped with my creativity.

    When we did finally get a decent computer and the Internet, I continued that by making graphics of my favourite bands etc.

    @Pandapaws so cute! If you don't mind me asking, what do you use?

    I've only got my phone at the moment, bur saving for a laptop or possibly a tablet

    hi @CountryMimi it’s good to see that you’ve found something you enjoy doing. It’s also great that you have your own Etsy shop too! I used my iPad to create my artwork. I use a fantastic app called Procreate

    Thank you @Pandapaws 🙂

    Oh yeah, I'm familiar with Procreate!

    Not available on android. But hopefully once I'm a bit more sorted I'll be able to get that laptop or iPad 😊

    @scotslad

    I've yet to make a success of it 🙈 I've actually just sent a message to family and friends to try and encourage sales.

    I agree, it does shock me some of the prices!

    @scotslad just to clarify that I don’t sell any of my artwork, and I don’t have an Etsy shop as I know I can’t do that due to benefits like you’ve said. I do my art as part of my therapy and also get pleasure from gifting some of my art to friends

    @scotslad that’s a beautiful owl, I’m sure your mum will love it. With regards to the DWP, I agree with what you said, a lot of the time they like to pick in easy targets.

    Thank you so much 😊 
    1) my disability support cat, and bestie Lily
    2) my great uncle William, a coalminer who fought (and died, with his brother Edward Tattam) against Franco in the Spanish Civil War
    3) my rescue disability support dog, and bestie, Skipper

    I’ll try to post a photo of my other disability support dog Scout but she has cancer again so a bit emotional painting her atm :'( we all live together on our houseboat on the river. Yes it gets cold :#
