Art

I have to admit I was not blessed with any ability at all in the artistic realm when it comes to drawing, coloring, painting, etc. I feel that I can be "crafty" but my hands were not meant to portray things on paper in any way but completely elementary. After reading my sister's blog tonight it was completely confirmed when I saw that her sons had not only surpassed me at their ripe ages of 10 and 12, but that their understanding of all things artistic is in a realm that I haven't even begun to get to. What children that age innately understand the idea of shadowing? Or the concept of putting two characters together into one body? I guess it may come naturally to some, but I am not one of those. I like to sit back and enjoy the creativity and talent of others, especially when I find that I have no particular talent in that area. So artists of the world, keep creating for those of us who can enjoy the end products but have not a lick of talent to create them ourselves.
