I wrote this in July 2012, but it is still true...

I'm starting to realise that success in art only comes with drawing, painting and producing as much as possible. You'll probably not make anything of value (whatever that means to who-ever!) by only drawing once in a blue moon. Like the legendary Gary Player said: 'The more I practice, the luckier I get'.

The more I draw the easier bigger things become, and suddenly I realise that large drawings I started and gave up on years ago, I now feel ready to tackle again and finish!

The joy and the secret is not in arriving at some mystic destination, but on the journey. There is no arriving as an artist, maybe some significant landmarks along the way, but we have to keep growing, learning, evolving...
