Ah yes, the residue of smudged graphite. It was then she noticed another artist was amongst them, and it just made her smile. Wysteria didn't feel threatened on a commission level, she was rather confident about that. She was just very thrilled to meet others whom are into the arts like she was. It'd been a while since she'd met another artist. "So you sketch, Kira?," she half assumed," I'd love to see some works you've done." Wysteria could do most of any art, but she fancied ceramics and painting in particular. She had at one point had a phase where she did a lot of digital art and computer graphics pieces, but alas, Wysteria was a traditionalist at heart, and she painted mostly. If a client ever wanted any sort of digital works or sketchings for that matter, she could do it, but her heart was always on painting and ceramics.

" Yeah I sketch.." Kira blushed. No one had ever really seen her sketches.. " If you want to see them, I could show you a few..." Kira shrugged.

Wysteria delightedly clapped her hooves together. "I would love to see your work! It is one of my perks in life," she said, and then adding jokingly," Makes my life kind of sad, doesn't it?" Then, thinking a moment, added as an after thought "I'd show you a bit of my work, but a majority of it got destroyed this morning unfortunately. A fire hit the neighborhood, if you guys didn't know. Took down almost 6 buildings..." She trailed off, really wondering if she should add about what Razzaroo and Silver Shadow talked about the 'evil' ponies.

Kira looked exided. "No really! Arts one of the perks of my life too! ;D" Kira walked over to the bundled blanket and unwrapped her sketchbook. Its soo cool to meet another artist, kira thought. She frowned when she heard of the fire and hoped the candle shop was alright. "Oh my.. A fire? Is everyone ok? Thats too bad, I'd like to see some of your work." Kira was deeply concerned, she knew what it felt like for an artisit to loose her artwork.. She handed over her black sketchbook. "I'm afraid I'm a little messy with my drawings." She flipped to a page of a hand drawn picture of a nameless mare trotting giddily through a clover field. It was colorless but it had an old timey beauty to it.

Moon Crystal was still looking at Nightingale, waiting for an answer. She then realised Wysteria and Kira were talking about artists and fires, something along that line anyway. Moony looked their direction.
Ooo!She couldn't help but look at Kira's sketches. She loved looking at pictures... so imaginative. "Oh! That's beautiful!" She said to Kira. "Oh I see. You're an artist too!" Mony smiled. Ponyville has heaps of Artists... I wonder if there is an art gallery... she thought. I wish I could draw as well as them...

Kira blushed, "Oh thanks." She bowed slightly and folded her blanket neatly.

Moony smiled delightfully. "So, how long have you been sketching for? It must of taken alot of time and practice."

(ooc: Kira, gonna go all artsy and describe your sketchs, how you don't mind . Sorry, I'm sort of planning to be a comic book artist/writer, so I've been through tons of art classes. I kinda know a small bit of artist talk and what not.) Wysteria studied with a trained eye. She'd done this sort of stuff for years. Drawing and shading like this was the basis for any art mainly. Although Wysteria didn't do much of this work any more, she still probably could pick up a pencil and whip something out. Her strokes are light here....she has a habit of using light pressure when she starts out. And here....you can still barely see the remains of her circles. That's good, she's using the circle and bubble system to get the body figures done and proportionate. Her pencil strokes are quite good. She seems to have the skill down to texturize areas. I can tell that this is her hoof, the hair and the coat appart by just texture. And the shadding looks well in order. Kira can difinitely draw what she sees. Without lifting a head to the other, she began to flip another page. "If there's anything you'd rather not me seeing, stop me bfore I get to it. Sometimes other artists need to hide a few pieces, I know I did when I carried my sketchbook everywhere.," she said," These really are amazing Kira. You work well with this medium. Have you used any charcol pencils?"

((occ: Wow! You act Wysteria well with all her 'art language' Rose. *grabs paper and pen* hehehe, I'm going to take notes on this. ^-^ I'm a kind of artist person too you know.))
Ahh! This ones so pretty! I love the detail... Moony thought when she peered over and saw the next picture. When Wysteria said something charcol pencils, Moony frowned. I wonder if they are going to go into a full on art conversation. I'm not going to understand what they would be saying... hmm, maybe they'd just talk about pencil brands or painting technics or something... Moony sighed. The only thing I can do is listen I guess... I might learn something...

(OOC: Thats fine! I am also into the arts and stuff in real life... I saw your website Rose, its gorgeous. I'm thinking of starting my own website to display my art, but I dont know how. ) Kira smiled , "I've been drawing and such most of my life." She watched as Wysteria turned the page. "Oh, its alright, the stuff i dont want others to see i rip out and put somewhere else. " "Hmm, I'm not a charcoal fan I'm more into graphite and ebony... Occasionally I'll use charcoal." On Kiras next page was that very scene of Moony and Wysteria rolling down the hill and genuinely having fun. Again, it was in black and white, but it was cleaner than the last and looked like a photo. Kira blushed, she did'nt know how they would react to seeing themselves in her sketchbook.

Trinket peeked out from behind a bush. She usually didn't leave the city to hunt for shiny things, as it was so far from her stash and the shinies were less frequent, but after nearly getting trampled, she had decided some space would be a wise idea. "Hmm... a few silly mares, that's all. Mares are good. They wear more jewellery than stallions, they do... But I don't see any shinies..." She flittered up to a tree branch to get a closer look, resisting the urge to snatch at the glitter trail she left. "No shinies? How disappointing..." But wait... Those pretty pictures... they looked a little pencilly... and how she loved the way light reflected off of pencil lines! "Not too shiny, but shiny enough for me!" Trinket twittered gleefully, her wings flapping with giddyness and coating the grass below in sparkles.

(ooc: Thanks Kira and Moony! Website building isn't hard when you got the hang of it. I could write you out some html codes to get you started. I'll see about posting it up in the ooc board.)
Wysteria flipped the page and was face to face with herself and Moony rolling downt he hill. Almost photographic quality, Wysteria was beyond impressed. Her smile pulled wide and she looked to Kira. "This is us!," she said happily. She was actually rather flattered to have been drawn. "Moony, see, I told you! You would be beautiful to draw!," she said to the unicorn, refering back to their conversation at Rootsie Tootsie's. "Kira, you have one amazing skill," she finished, closing the sketch book gently. She handed it back to it's owner and smiled just down right impressed. Such a good artist! And I was right about Moony. Now I have to paint her!

Nightingale waited patientely for the other mares to finish their conversation. Once Wysteria finished what she said, Nightingale finally got a chance to reply to Moon Crystals question, "I come from Fewa. Ever heard of it?"

((occ: Yeah, I was thinking of having a website to up up my art, but I don't have a paint program that allows you to or something. And I'm not the best with computers, but you can learn I guess. I wanna get Adobe Photoshop, but thats expensive... well apparently anyway. Oh well. ^-^))
"Oooo! Its us!" Moony went into fits of delight when she saw the picture of her and Wysteria rolling. "It looks so real! It's wonderful..." She looked up at Kira with a smile. "No wonder you are such an excellent artist, especially with all that experience. I guess all the hard work pays off..."Maybe if I did practice like what Wysteria said earlier..."Huh? Ohh!!" Moony blushed quickly and looked at the ground. Moony was speechless as she tried to hide her blushing face behind her long wavy hair. "W-why... thank you W-wysteria..." I can't be that beautiful to draw. Seriously! But, deep inside, Moony felt pride. "Thanks..." She said again smiling.
Smiling still, Moony turned around and looked at Nightingale, her cheeks were still pink. "No I have never heard of Fewa." she replied in a small voice.

Kira was flattered. She was also relieved by the way Wysteria acted to seeing herself in Kira's sketchbook. She recieved the book for wysterias hooves and put it on top of the folded blanket. Now, standing under a tree; Kira noticed a perculiar glittery dust falling around her. Some of the glitter flew up her nose and she let out a gigantic sneeze.
