Art and Criticism

Laziness of course plays a big part, but I also think I might be better at playing the piano and writing if I didn't have such good taste. Becoming good at these things takes a lot of consistent effort and work, a lot of practice, and a lot of bad attempts. I have enough critical sense to be hyper aware of my poor performance and for it to jar on me, so I don't practice nearly as much as I should. Thus, I'm not very good.

I have a solution, though. I'll take up art! Since I don't "get" art, bad art doesn't faze me. This should mean that I'll be able to get in lots of practice without frustrating myself.

Stay tuned, guys. Pretty soon, I'm going to have perfected my stick-man technique.
