Once upon time, before college and love and work and life got in the way, I used to think of myself as an artist.
As it is, I haven't drawn much of anything in nearly three years. A doodle here and there, sure - but my heart stopped being in it. Distractions abound.
Lately I've found myself thinking that it's going to go away - if I don't put pencil to paper NOW, than I'm not going to be able to do it later. This is what this blog is for. Motivation. If I have a spot to share this stuff and eyes to watch and know and judge when I stop doing so, maybe I won't let whatever semblance of talent I have slip away.
I want to decorate my walls. I want my kids to look at something I create and say "Wow." But I can't do that if all I do is think about it.
