Day 45: "A True Artist!"

Imagine looking from behind a grand piano, through the open lid to the person playing at the keyboard.  That's the portrait that won Bob a top award.  It's gorgeous...and we know the artist!

 Emily's father-in-law just got his book published...a book about the Protestant movement in New Zealand in the 50's and 60's.  Imagine all the time, effort, and determination that went into that!

And then there's the car parking artist, who perfectly aligns his vehicle between the designated parking spot lines.  This artist can also move his car into another lane without touching the dotted lines that divide the lanes!

I'm concluding that the true artist has a blend of imagination, skill, and the determination to practice that skill.  (I'm pretty good at the imagination part...it's the skill and determination parts that are still a little allusive.)
