??????????????????????????????????????????

What does this title mean? I don't know. Do you?  One great talent that artists have is to think outside the box. When an artist looks at something that seems unappealing or boring to a regular person, they see something totally different. They see art, stories, photos and maybe even a sculpture. Now look at this picture and think deeply about it. What I mean is look at the lines, the colour and shape and try to get a feeling from it. Don't just see with your eyes, feel the picture with your eyes. Try it out:


                                     












Now what feeling did you get? Do you get a flowing, rhythmic feeling? You can make anything from everything. This is a great exercise. Try this out with another painting or picture. If you are more receptive to flow and feeling rather than just lines and boxes, you not only get more out of a picture you also get great inspiration for artwork of your own.

Dear Vera,

Hey everyone!

I have been asked a very thoughtful question regarding friends. I know exactly how you feel, I too have a hard time finding friends at school. I thought I found the perfect friends as well, but a few members of the group have proven hard to deal with and a few a bit mean or unkind. However, you cannot expect to be treated a certain way unless you treat them a certain way. I try to treat my friends as best as I can but when they cross the line, I don't hang out with them. You need to draw the line at some point. When a friend or even a group of friends prove unworthy of you kind friendship, don't hang on. They don't deserve a nice friend of they aren't nice friends back. That's how it goes. There is so much difficulty when it comes to friends.

For more help on friends, comment.

With Honesty,

Dear Vera,

Hello, I apologize dearly for not answering you sooner. I am so happy to have someone answering my posts!

What do you do with a cat that is too hyper?

Well find the source of it.

-Why is the cat hyper?
-Is it a medical condition?

If the cat is young it is very normal for a vibrant kitten to want to jump off the walls. For example, when I got Earl he was only a few month old but as jittery as a bouncy ball! (:-P) He couldn't stop running around! Well, I trained him to walk around outside. That mostly got rid of the excess energy. That could help your cat as well. 

If your cat is not young or a newborn, and may be older, try calming it. An older cat that has a heart that is always on edge could result in severe medical heart conditions. 

Is your cat constantly "spooked" for fun or by some unknown reason?
If so find out the cause immediately. Scarring a cat too often could also result in a very unpleasant and sad way.  

All in all, if your cat doesnt suffer from any health related conditions and is as healthy as can be, don't worry. I think it is jkust a natural phase of a kitten's life!

:-)

Until Next Time,
