It's not precisely a list, though - more a thought that perhaps you're framing the question wrong. I think art is less about lists than about joy.

This one reflects in many aspects of your life, I think. <BR/><BR/>Leigh, glad you're in my camp, too. I kind of envy people who can come out straight and say it - it's not that I don't think about it, but I seem to have a question (or two) of the month.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350447919000146804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-60988301751920158982008-06-27T06:06:00.000+12:002008-06-27T06:06:00.000+12:00Interesting idea.

Perhaps if I could, it would help me begin to sort out the "who am I" as an artist. Somehow the journey to discovery is so overwhelming that I seldom know whether or not I'm finding my way.Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-79998907279216621432008-06-27T05:50:00.000+12:002008-06-27T05:50:00.000+12:00I think the only one I have is from Dr. Seuss:"If ...I think the only one I have is from Dr. Seuss:<BR/><BR/>"If you never did, you should:<BR/>These things are fun, and fun is good."<BR/><BR/>A great statement on the value of trying new things, and the central part of creation: it should (overall, among all the mistakes, frustration, and hard work) be FUN. If it isn't, you're either going stale or doing something that won't interest you in the long run.Tien Chiuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03546830553833515210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-86890736299989271432008-06-26T19:10:00.000+12:002008-06-26T19:10:00.000+12:00Has anyone else got a list, so I can cheat a littl...Has anyone else got a list, so I can cheat a little?Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350447919000146804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-50070466359988704502008-06-26T19:06:00.000+12:002008-06-26T19:06:00.000+12:00Wow, so quickly...
