Wow, that is weird, I had responded to L_L and it disappeared. Weird.

So, to L_L-- I live in Seattle area. I have thought about going down to Portland because they have some glass shops I wanted to check out. Maybe one day I can come down there and we can whoop it up.
For a living, I "sell" (haha) real estate. I wouldn't call myself and artist, per se, more like a crafter. I do lampwork beads (make glass beads on a small torch), stained glass, fuse glass, make jewelry/wire wrap, scrapbook, embroider, cross stitch, quilt, paint ceramics, acrylic and water color painting, a little Precious Metal Clay, Fimo/sculpey stuff...right now the bead making is my fave thing. I don't think I will get tired of it.

What sort of artist are you? Is that how you make a living? You sound like you are doing very well mentally. Probably helps that he is so far away, there is nothing to do BUT move forward with your own life...
