Thread Name: Songs about Artists, The Arts, and Crafts
Subject: RE: Songs about Artists, The Arts, and Crafts
Kate Wolf wrote a song called "Lines on the Paper," about both drawing and songwriting. It describes her feelings as she watched an artist at work and envied his skill. It goes on to say that she'll just have to create pictures using the words of her songs.

Margaret MacArthur sings a song called "My Old Green Sweater," about weaving and knitting. Not sure if it counts as an art. A craft, definitely. Bob Clayton also knows the words to this one, as it happens; if anyone wants it I'll get it from him ... unless Bob happens to have a burning desire to type something and wants to post it himself.
