Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Have I got that kind of stamina? I like your question, it's making me think. No, I do not possess that kind of stamina in quite the same way as Picasso. And I know your question is probably not directed only at artists- though I am an artist- innately if not by profession. Meaning, I can, but I don't. People have always recognized my talents for art and writing, when I've had opportunity to display them. But creating art is not something I am driven to do, as I find it takes so much time and emotional energy that I have to give to everyday life. So, I guess one could say that is part of my failure- to have talents which aren't being expressed. |
