I already have an aquarelle. Actually I got two. My nephew gave a set as a Christmas gift together with 6 brushes of different sizes. I also have a watercolor sketching pad and canvas pad and a sketchpad. I also have an acrylic set and also some oil pastels. I have books on how to paint.
So what’s stopping you? A friend asked. What more do you need?
Water. I answered.
Heh! she uttered.
Rags and pencils?
She pouted.
I’m afraid I can’t do it, I said, trying to look as if I was joking.
No, she said, you’re just lazy.
Maybe. Maybe not.
But the truth is, I’m out of practice. Why, I can’t even draw anymore!!
So, even if I have to start learning again, somehow I just have to push myself because my friend was right. I am lazy. Or not motivated enough.
