More and more i think "talent" might just boil down to "enthusiasm" - because if you have the genuine will and urge to create, then you'll be happy to put the time in. It'll be the thing you most want to do. If you don't love spending time on it, then you won't practice enough to stand out. <br />I think I like drawing on the iPad because it takes away a lot of steps - no materials to get the hang of, paint to let dry, etc. (Well, using the stylus and programs does take some time to learn, I guess). I get more immediate results - but not the kind of long-term satisfaction that comes from real building a skill set the way you do. <br />Impressed by you and love the art you're making.<br />Love,<br />LeahLeah R-Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09899784603470911743noreply@blogger.com
