    "Art is not a thing, it is a way." - Elbert Hubbard

    ... And this is my way of briefly introducing myself on this forum :

    I was born and raised in Germany, as the daughter of a German father and Hungarian mother. Thus, I was raised bilingually, and when I moved to America for a year when I was nine, I also added English to my list of languages I speak fluently.
    As I write this, I'm 17 years old.
    Art is something I enjoy very much, and I have found a passion in drawing and sketching, even though I often find myself challenged with a lack of motivation to finish some of my pictures, therefore many are yet unfinished. I also love writing, be it stories or poetry, and I'm already looking forward to sharing some of my stuff, as well as reading yours.
    Same goes for art, of course, as well as photography.
    Another thing I love is music, like most people, I suppose, however I don't stricly listen to one genre I declared best, it really depends on the songs, bands or pieces, as well as my current mood.

    I'm a very open person and very keen on broadening my horizon.

    If there are any questions, which I somehow doubt, you can feel free to ask me! Thank you for taking the time for reading this.

    Welcome to the site, Kuroneko. Kuroneko is a Japanese word, isn't it? (Neko is in any case). Your English is outstanding, by the way. I'm an old man reading through my retirement myself, but you will find many young writers and lots of music lovers here. If there are particular authors or musicians you love, be sure to write about them. It's really great to have you here.

    Yes, kuroneko is a Japanese word, meaning black cat.
    Thank you very much, and also for the warm welcome.

    I am happy to read your post as I just logged in after years and felt to be more settled into this forum. As I've been roaming around, musings need rest.
    Art is not in my head or soul. I feel every element in me, around, everywhere an art. Scattered forms are everywhere though. Would like to share more.

    I'm happy to welcome you and happy to write properly for the first time here.

    Danke ! Dankbarkeit..

    Welcome, Kuroneko. There is a poetry games section here you might be interested in. I find it a way to motivate me to write something.
