Despite a slight degree of hypocrisy. Let me say that worrying about what others think and learning in comparison to others is a surefire way to fail. People learn to draw and paint all the time, some slower, some faster. And if you do begin to grasp it, you won't be the first or the last. If you want to see what it takes, Google Mindcandyman. And you'll see what learning "art" looks like. You'll also see what inspiration looks like. Inspiration is a main factor for anyone enjoying art. It inspires us when we see what it is we want to do, or what someone has accomplished through effort greater then ours. Or when something is truly just rad. Also, Art is so vast, you don't simply learn it. You live it. Some of us fail to do this more then anything. Learning to paint and draw just takes time and effort. But to live art, well it takes so much more. The "challenge of learning" won't sustain itself alone, neither will false confidence. Which I detect from you and your "logic" comments among other things. (& That's being kind, but an edit of my original post, which would have resulted in an argument I want no part of) Anyways, my 2 cents. Do what you will with it. Regardless, I wish you the best in your journey (or race?). Always continue to learn, never feel you've arrived. You'll be all the better for it.
