What do you enjoy making?

[Berkana]

I'd love to experience what others enjoy creating. Anything. Art, music, sandwiches, crafts, beautiful sentences, etc. Anything, it doesn't matter if it's "good", this is more about noticing and sharing some joy in life. What do you like to make?

Sorry if this has been done, I searched but possibly failed at looking well enough, it's been known to happen!

I'll start, I love painting galaxies! Below are my 2 new ones.

@Berkana , Those are beautiful!!! I honestly almost thought they were photographs at first. You are so talented!

I have a thread on here about my art- I draw and paint digitally but also traditionally. I also do photography (I posted some of those in the Photography thread too if you would like to see) and I do some graphic design. I travel a lot so I do mainly travel photography, but I'll take photos of pretty much anything, including people and animals.
Other than that, I've started cooking and mixing drinks lately (non-alcoholic), and I live in a new house so I love decorating and interior design. I like gardening, but haven't had the chance to plant many flowers yet where I live now. I have some indoor plants. I have some coloring books that I love to color in. I also love making videos, playing the drums (I used to be in a band!) and dancing.
That's a lot I'm definitely a free-spirited, creative person. I love expressing myself through the arts!!

I do stuff like this:

These are fractals! Mostly! I've got lots of these. If you want, you can see them here:

My 3D fractal art

I started that topic almost immediately after discovering this entire concept, so the early ones in there arent very good. They get better as it goes on. There's some new ones I havent put in there yet.

And if you're at all interested in how these are made, have a look at this:

The unusual art apps that I use

I'm still a beginner at these, definitely, but I'm pleased with what I've made so far (mostly).

I enjoy making wood/fiberglass boats. Here is my latest, a narrow 17.5 foot greenland design sea kayak. Weighs 32 lbs. and is a fast solo boat for the intermediate level paddler.

I think I was born fascinated with electronic circuits. I have spent my life studying, designing and building electronic circuits. It became my career. In retirement I am now designing as a work of art - to design and build the purest and most pristine and perfectly functional electronics. I started a website to explain my interest.

I like to cook and bake.
I started trying to make some nice looking desserts for fun.
Still need more practice to make them look better. But they all tasted great.

 

[Suzette]

My specialty is learning new skills so I have tried many things. Book binding, shoe making, weaving, wool spinning, glass slumping, metal clay, enamels on copper, polymer clay, and many more.
I think I am best with sewing though. I am very good with large scale sewing for our boat. I like figuring out patterns and creating something from an idea. I don't have any pictures here (I am travelling). Maybe I can take some of our bimini and mainsail cover when I get back next week.

I think they are all beautiful - real works of art!

@Varzar, I gained weight just looking at the pics!

 

[Luca]

I went digging through my computer folders and found pictures of some of my creative designs!
Here are some table settings I put together for Christmas and Thanksgiving:

Here are some dishes I made:
Butternut squash and pumpkin with pecan and mixed nut topping

This is a Portuguese and Spanish dish called Huevos Rotos

Spaghetti with asparagus, scallions, chives, lemon and parmesan cheese

Tropical mixed fruit smoothie with pineapple and watermelon

Pancetta carbonara with Alfredo (and passion fruit tea)

And here are two of my drum kits

 

[Berkana]

I love all of these, thank you for sharing. I hope to see and experience more!!

I enjoy dispensing wisdom (where I am able to do so).

So many people here making all sorts of nice food, and here I am, unable to microwave hotdogs without them exploding.

My wife once tried to make those frozen chicken nuggets from the store. She knew they usually go in the toaster oven for 10 minutes each side. But basically her sole appliance for cooking is the microwave, and she figured that time would work just as well. So, 10 minutes in the microwave, and she had some really solid hockey pucks.

I never let her forget this story....

As a true artist, l choose to look at every day as a creative endeavor in any medium. Love, writing, cooking.
