You’ll Never Know
It was very interesting today. While teaching a class, one student asked me how, when and why I started to paint. It became very clear to me as I began to explain that I started to paint not because I really had any passion to actually paint but that I wanted to be around painting people. I never held a paint brush until I was thirty-seven years old. I was encouraged by the warmth of others to……..give it a try, you’ll never know unless you try. So I did!! The rest is history and it (the act of painting and creating) lit a passion in me that keeps pushing me forward in the most positive and fulfilling way.
So I am always telling people who say they could never paint to just give it a try. No one really knows what lies deep within them just waiting for someone to make the subtle suggestion to try it. I am not saying you will sit down and create a masterpiece but if painting for the first time makes you the tiniest bit interested in more then seek a class with a good instructor that can guide you along your way. There are basic fundamentals to learn and from then on you make it your own personal journey.
