My name is Danielle. I am a nurse. I have an apartment. I have three children. I would like a fourth one. My oldest kid is in art class and she likes the class. I have no artistic talent. I have bipolar disorder.
My name is Paul. I have an apartment. I am not blind or color blind. I like blue. I have 3 sisters and no children. My mother is a teacher. I would like to be an art teacher. I can draw.  I recently applied to get my certificate to teach art. A long term goal of mine is to open a studio.
My daughter showed me an unbelievable picture she drew the other day! Wow! I would love to see it in person sometime. Describe it for me.  Well it had my three kids in it and they were skiing! That's so sweet! I have loved drawing ever since I was little kid. If you can draw, you have an outlet out of boredom every time. The imagination is an endless resource. Does your daughter want to pursue art as a career? She is considering it!  I hope to send her to art lessons in the summer.  Maybe you could give her some lessons. I would absolutely love too. I was going to ask if she would be interested, so it's good to hear. I have a feeling that I could sharpen the talent that is already there, give her some tips and advice that will prevent from making some of the mistakes I did when I was younger. She seems like she has ALOT of potential. I know you say that you have no artistic talent, but do you have any creative hobbies that you like to participate in? I am so busy with work and the kids that it is hard. I do like music though and would like to learn an instrument, maybe piano. I can only imagine how difficult it is for you to have "you time". I personally think that creativity is important for mental health. I have dealt with depression, and drawing helps to process some of those complex emotions.  When you open your studio please let me know and I will gladly come with my daughter to learn some more! You will be the first I let know. I have a good friend of mine that teaches piano, if you ever find time. I'm sure she can be flexible with your tight schedule. Just something to think about.  That sounds wonderful.  I just need a babysitter and some days off.   Of course. I am so excited for you and your children's future. I think this friendship will be beneficial for both of us. Plus, I don't have kids myself, so I would enjoy spending time around some youth, at least to feel younger than I am lol
