Timing is Everything


I perked up when a neighbor casually mentioned she was taking art lessons from a local artist. Art had finally found me. The first lesson was overwhelming. Pick a photo to paint and copy it as the instructor guided me through the process. This chapel door took several lessons to complete. It's laughable, but from the start you want to create a masterpiece and it doesn't work that way unless a person is a natural. Like music lessons, you have to do the "scales" first. I have more confidence and knowledge now, but the desire to learn more and get better is insatiable.
