No cowboys here just a poor man with a dog.

Sense you put it in bold letters. Are you old enough to know that you don't know everything ? Or do you have a few years to go before you know that ?

I'm old enough to know that i don't know everything.

I didn't say anything about being a old timer. What i said was i was old enough to know that i don't everything. Figured that out about 20 or so years ago. Sense you still haven't answered that question i guess you still have some time to go.

hahahaha -- just won't let it go will ya, even after surrender. Ok, yeah, I'm most certainly old enough to know what I don't know. I've often said and believe that you are as smart as you will ever be when you're 15 years old. At that age, you know it all and it's just down hill from there.

I'm 58 years old, just turned last week. I have a hip replacement surgery scheduled in six weeks. Yeah, I'm old enough and then some.

Oh, and a dog lover too.

You have yourself a good life now, ya hear? And just remember, this is all an illusion. None of this is real...you don't even exist.

I wish I was an artist. I am extremely jealous of folks who have the skill and talent to draw and create unique pieces. I consider myself more of a mechanic/fabricator.

Ok I just read this "what is art" and I'm here to fix it for everybody! Leather worker sounds manly. In days gone by where you had blacksmiths and carpenters, and farmhands that knew all kinds of macho shhtuff! Leather worker seems to fit in amongst all that testosterone. Leather workers also had the vats to tan hides whereas the normal city did not. Leather artist also sounds kinda danty like! Are you gonna name your dog Prince or are you gonna name him duke?

This thread jumps ahead of itself. It asks the question "is leathercraft art?". But before you can answer that, you first have to get a consensus on the definition of 'art'.

Good luck with that. :D

I remember talking to an engraver about engraving some knife bolsters. He was at the top of his game and charged something like $200 per square inch. The subject of art came up and he said "if you are selling what you do by the square inch, it aint art, it's work!".
