Try this. Problem is, you will loose all your previous hobbies and your job. But hey, I hope I could help you.

[Kresh]

I didnt even click on that Jabo. Is that the one with the Croc doing the deathspin on a certain appendage?

[Red_Rook]

draw more?
Play videogames?

Complaining about having too much time is similar to complaining about too much money; you're going to find few who are sympathetic.

And it certainly depends on how serious you are about art, but I'm pretty sure there's enough there to fill several dozen man-hours per day. Of course, it's also important to fill your visual library, so going out and observing is also worthwhile.

[Sam Araya]

Play Warhammer 40K!!!

If you have more than 500$ to spare, of course ;)

Now seriously, have you tried modelmaking and sculpture? its nice, relaxing, and as a plus you are making your skills grow (in sculpture at least).

Its strange to me that someone would need advice on the internet to get a new hobby...

[Aerythes]

Try child-rearing. Should be pretty time-consuming.

[Elwell]

Get a girlfriend.

[GriNGo]

yeah, & learn to dance while you're at it. latin rythms.

parkour (http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/Parkour)

[sciboy]

Find an open source game and make some art contributions.

[dCepT]

tie: You beat me to it... I was gonna suggest parkour as well.. hehe...

JJH: check out www.parkour.net and I've posted a couple of shots of myself jumping around in the "what does everyone look like"-thread... see if it looks like something for you...

peace

[Gloominati]

so just let me get this straight:

YOU are asking US what you would like to have as a new hobby, right?

Dood, are you serious?

[Flake]

Alchoholism?

[CaptainInsano]

Get a girlfriend.


OWN333degde!!!!!!!!one!!!

[Interceptor]

Why not start working on your portfolio?

[Blue]

Get a girlfriend.
He wants a hobby, not something to take over his life, crush his dreams, agonize his last nerve and distroy any shred of self respect he has...but i guess that does eat up time. :)

[Ilaekae]

If you're serious, look for something remotely art related that you can leave sit for a while if you have to...killing two birds with one stone kind of thing...

Scratchbuilding models

Quilting or something like that

Beads

Doing something like assemblage art where you hoard shit of all kinds and assemble it into a piece of "art." I quoted that because you can be as serious as you want with it and actually produce true sculpture.

Make books/bookbinding

Make block prints or similar

Make paper (it's easy)

Make your own art supplies. (Not hard)

If you live near a woods, etc., drift through it and find things that are interesting or easy to work with, and then make something out of them. Walking sticks and fantasy weapons from saplings, that kind of things. It would give you some practical knowledge of how people without power tools had to work, which is good to know if you're into fantasy and period art.
