<DIV>Hi Folks:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I’d like to introduce myself. I’m a blind person from wisconsin who is a
fledgling and budding beginner artist. my medium is beadwork. I make pictures
and tapestries out of tiny little seed beads sewn together with thread.
but most of my work is in making jewlry, but I have always looked upon my
beadwork as an art form. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>so, I have a basic question. What is the difference between an art and a
craft? I do believe that all crafts are forms of art but are all arts
considered crafts? Thanks linda and all of you for getting this list going as it
is something I’ve always dreamed of seeing in our efforts to bring blind people
together who love to both create and appreciate the visual
arts. </DIV></DIV></DIV></BODY></HTML>
