I'm not an artist. I can't draw.

Some of the most creative minds cannot put pen to paper.

I once did a shoot with a fashion photographer who was almost unbookable because he was in such demand.  On the shoot, he never touched the camera.  He didn't know how it worked. 

Annie Lennox (Google her) didn't know her vocals were 'epic' until someone told her in her late teens.

In my early years as a writer, I worked with an art director who had been drawing stick men from an early age to relax.  Laughable.  Turns out they were millions of stick men depicting the great battles throughout human history.  Overwhelming in scale.  One tiny stick man at a time, with a ball point pen.

To this day, the image of his exceptional work is seared in my memory.  I wish I had one of his stick man masterpieces on my wall.

There should be a clever conclusion to this post that inspires you to get out there... do the same… create art.  But we all know what to do...
