I too am quit flexible. While drawing, and now antler, are my two main passions I too have done silversmithing, oils, acrylics, collages, large scale sculpture, clay, etc. etc. BUT just cause I like to dabble in everything doesn't mean the (whatever I don't do often) I'd do tonight would match the honed skills after doing (whatever I didn't do often) consistently for a year.

Make sense? As I said, I've dabbled in everything but it took me almost a year to say "ok, I am good at antlers... yes, actually good." That year also consisted of trying several different tools to find what matched me. The "good"ness didn't happen over night despite being a flexiartist. ;)

But since you're flexible I guess you won't have to force yourself to love the needle and thread as I was picturing. Which I guess was my main point. Need to stop rambling now and go to bed.
