We are nurses. When we see a situation, we visualize or imagine how we're going to deal with it.

Well, when it comes to art, the same thing happens with me. I can't stop myself. I look at something and I image things.

I look at members' names and the image of an avatar comes to mind.

I submit thes images with all due respect.

In retrospect, Guy in Babyland, I have to agree with you. So I came up with one I like better:

I feel so honoured!! Pretty much exactly how I see myself- love it!

Now that everybody wants one, you're feeling the pressure! lol

Reminds me of when I was a kid, as soon as the other kids in my class found out I could draw, I'd get stacks of paper handed to me with the plea, "Hygiene, draw me something!". Problem was that the pressure was too much and I'd never produce a single drawing. I'd totally pray the kids would forget they asked. By the end of the year, I'd have stacks of free paper in my desk, which I greedily kept. Apparently, the only kind of artist I was was a con artist and drunk on all the Mead I acquired, lol.

In my family "Wuzzie" was used as a diminutive for my grandmother who's name was Elizabeth and who had fuzzy hair.

Thanks for sharing that story, Hygiene Queen!

My first big professional art job was at First Night back in '95 drawing caricatures. I believe I was making about $16.50/hour working as an RN and I made $33.00/hour as an Artist! My head swam thinking I could do something I loved and get paid well for it.

At the beginning of First Night, I interviewed the Children and found out what they liked to do, or a favorite pet and draw them in that sort of setting. After doing several caricatures, I really got into the fun and excitement. I was assigned a helper who interupted me while doing a drawing saying, "I think you'd better step it up a bit". I looked up from my drawing to see a long, long line of People waiting to have their caricature drawn...

..Then, I felt the pressure!

It got to where I was mass producing stick figures!

Some time back, you made a post on overhearing some nursing students talking about AN.com and mentioning your username. Farawyn made comment that wouldn't it had been cool if you could have gone up to them and say "Hi. I'm Ruby Vee".

I followed Farawyn's comment up with a cartoon of a personified ruby-colored "V" sticking out its hand and saying "Hi... I'm Ruby Vee".

I keep looking for me but....I'm feeling very left out.

I noticed the thread with your "hare" getting washed disappeared and I liked it. Could you repeat the pic just for gp? Or was that considered "hare abuse" and reason for the thread to be pulled?
