I think I've discovered something.

There is a difference in being good at drawing and having the talent for drawing.

I'm good at it...but I have no natural talent for it. Strange but true.....meh...

I need sleep.

*blinks* Could have fooled me.

Hm. What is the difference, though? That talent comes more easily? But there are a lot of other factors that can make an activity come more or less easily. You give so much of yourself, of your spirit, to your art that I have trouble believing that it's just a matter of steady application for you. Obviously, you have steady application, or you wouldn't be this polished. But it seems to me that you have the "spark", too.

Mom was the one who told me I had no talent. My brother does, but he hasn't done anything with till recently and already he's really good.

Having the talent means it comes naturally and improves the same way.

not having the talent means you have to continually work at it, knwoing that others will surpass you easily simply because it's their gift.

It's the reason I stopped writing.
