Off to the City today

I think I have everything I need for the class today. I hope.

I haven't done this here in a while.

So Ask me a question (with the usual rules that apply to this)

I am grateful for chances to expand my artistic skills.

What, do you believe, separates 'art' from 'craft'?

Oh boy that's a hard one.

Personally (and your mileage may very greatly), I think that there is a lot of art in craft. I have a hard time finding some sort of dividing line between the two. I used my craftsmanship to create art. My puppets are an example of this. I craft them and they are practical objects (they work as puppets ) but there is an art to them both in the creation and the performance.

I hope that answers the question. Funny you should ask because that came up in class today.
