ARTISTIC FLAIR?

I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE AN ARTIST. HOW AMAZING IT WOULD BE TO SEE SOMETHING AND BE ABLE TO DRAW IT OR PAINT IT. I HAVE A FRIEND WHO IS SUCH AN ARTIST. IN FACT SHE TEACHES ART AND HAS TOLD ME FOR YEARS THAT SHE CAN TEACH ANYONE TO PAINT. I'VE NEVER BELIEVED IT, SO THIS YEAR I HAVE PUT HER TO THE TEST. I TOOK ONE LESSON. DID YOU CATCH THAT (ONE) LESSON. AND JUST LOOK AT WHAT I WAS ABLE TO DO!!! IT'S AMAZING I KNOW. PLEASE DON'T THINK I AM BRAGGING, BUT WHEN YOU HAVE A GIFT, YOU JUST HAVE TO ACCEPT IT AND NOT HIDE IT. APPARENTLY I AM A GIFTED ARTIST AND HAVE BEEN ALL THESE YEARS. I JUST DIDN'T KNOW IT.
