Secret Thrill



So, is this a "guilty pleasure"?

Someone asks, "are you an artist?" and I get a secret thrill every time - EVERY TIME - I say, "yes, I am."

Of course, I also always imagine myself to be a slender artist who looks positively fetching in a beret.

  2. funny, when I was 5 years old, I HAD a green velveteen beret that probably came with one of my older sisters' winter coats, and I called it my "CA hat". (meaning my commercial artist hat!) I was 5, and I had no idea what a commercial artist was. But what did I become?.... so do not underestimate the power of a beret. I say put it on and throw your shoulders back and say again, "yes I am an artist!" maria
