In the latest Art & Life (Issue #6), Teesha posed questions to different artists featuring the number six. One of them was six interesting words. Being a big fan of words, language, and reading, I thought that was a great question and wondered what your list would include. To make it fun, I'm going to have a little drawing for a copy of Randi Feuerhelm-Watts' Self-Portraits Zine.

Leave your list of six words in a comment and come back next week to see who won (names will be drawn at random). No need to leave any personal info - the winner can privately email me their snail mail address.

There are so many great words, it's hard to have to choose, but here are the six that I picked today:

1. concomitant - don't know why, but this word has been stuck in my head for 20 years (since studying vocabulary for the SAT in high school)!!

2. onomatopoeia - such a poetic word and great when spoken aloud

3. quality - many meanings and loaded with possibilities

4. obsession - again, a loaded word

5. tchotchke - another fun one to say out loud

6. karma - I couldn't decide between this one and kismet

Tell us what words come to your mind...
