Definitely photography. Does cooking count?

I'm also partial to a bit of quilting.

I'd love to learn more about photography, but on this one I'd definitely have to go with dance.
There's something about being able to move your body in ways that can express any emotion. It's like speaking without words. When you're on stage, and can move an audience to tears, or laughter, or make them think about something that they wouldn't have otherwise taken the time to look twice at, you've done your job.
I miss being on stage.

I wouldn't have thought of it myself, but yeah, definately it's an art form. A dying one, though. Sad My grandmother used to make amazing quilts.

I'd have to go with music & photography myself

For me its photography. I buy books, magazines, go to galleries, meet other photographers (mostly Koreans) and spend most of my free time shooting photos.

Remember about 10 years ago when the Academy got the lady from Fame to choreograph a set of dances to refelct all the nominees for "Best Film"... What a show that was Rolling Eyes That had to be the lowest moment in Oscar history.

Music and Film would be my favorites. As you can tell, not much of a fan of dance. Would love to get into photography, don't quite have the budget for it though.

In my craft or sullen art
Exercised in the still night
When only the moon rages
And the lovers lie abed
With all their griefs in their arms,
I labor by singing light
Not for ambition or bread
Or the strut and trade of charms
On the ivory stages
But for the common wages
Of their most secret heart.

Not for the proud man apart
From the raging moon I write
On these spindrift pages
Nor for the towering dead
With their nightingales and psalms
But for the lovers, their arms
Round the griefs of the ages,
Who pay no praise or wages
Nor heed my craft or art.


(Dylan Thomas)

Any other classical musicians out there?
Check a couple of my compositions and tell me what you think.

Here it is, but remember, you asked for it.

Flamenco guitar with passion.

This guy is awesome. If I played even half as well as he does....I probably wouldn't be in K-land. (at least that's what I tell myself)
