      Thanks guys. Two of you suggested clowns, lol! I'm writing them down on paper as they come, so I can cut them out later and put them in a jar.

                I don't know if you've used it or not, Illustration Friday is a good resource. Weekly prompt / art contest.

                    cat, cadmium, superpowers (Sorry, Tess! Now the cadmium story is in my head and somehow I now believe that the superpowers actually happened! But seriously, there are some great illustrations in that! ha ha!)

                          You guys are the best, thank you. I've started my first sketching session. The words I pulled were mermaid and statue. I first thought of the Little Mermaid and the Eric statue, but I didn't go with that.

                          @Jason-Bowen I did my first random picking from the jar, and the first two were both from you! 😮

                          @Chip-Valecek Dang it Chip, I'm not putting in another clown into the selection jar! Lol.

                          @aska Hehe, That's an intriguing to do list!

                          @TwiggyT Of course you would suggest a hedgehog. ☺ Thank you.

                          @Tom-Shannon Thanks Tom, I haven't used it. I'll have to check it out sometime.

                          @JennyJones Nice ones.

                          @eli 😂 You crack me up!

                          @leothejediartist Welp, I'm set for the year. Thank you!

                          @Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen Ooo, that's the second suggestion for fluid. I really like your prompts!

                                    @KathrynAdebayo Those are really great ones!

                                    @jason-bowen Mermaid and statue!

                                    @Chip-Valecek "Little did Tessa know, that asking for prompt words on the SVS forum, would lead her to becoming known as a clown artist. . ."

                                    @Darian Thanks. 🙂 You can always contribute a word if you wish, but there's already certainly a ton!

                                        @tessaw Interesting I think I will try using that to do a painting too 🙂

                                          You've got plenty of words... but I can still add a little extra variety to your list, that you might find helpful or to enhance some of the other fine suggestions. 🙂
